Nature, Art And Gardens In Japan: From Tradition to Contemporary Life – Special Event

Presented by Marie Conte-Helm

This Special Interest Morning introduces some of Japan’s most famous gardens and provides a wider context for understanding the distinctive features of Japanese garden design that have evolved through the ages. Historical developments and religious and philosophical influences have informed the Japanese approach to the visual arts and have similarly contributed to different styles of gardens in Japan, from the palatial to the intimate. The Japanese love of nature will be illustrated through traditional examples and through the ways in which nature and the changing seasons continue to be celebrated in contemporary life.
