SUMMARY:The Art of the Japanese Garden
DESCRIPTION:This lecture introduces some of Japan’s most famous gardens and provides a context for understanding the principles of Japanese garden design as it has evolved through the ages. The Japanese love of nature and the changing seasons has manifested itself in paintings and in the intimate and grand-scale gardens surrounding aristocratic palaces and Buddhist temples\, as well as Zen-inspired dry landscape gardens with strikingly symbolic content. The lecture also draws upon wider examples to illustrate the distinctive qualities that the Japanese have brought to garden design\, an approach successfully adapted to modern domestic settings and to Japanese gardens abroad. \nDates and Locations \nMonday 7 September 2026 Mudgee (NSW) \nWednesday 9 September 2026 Orange (NSW) \nTuesday 15 September 2026 Scone (NSW) \nThursday 17 September 2026 Armidale (NSW) \nMonday 28 September 2026 Coffs Coast (NSW) \nTuesday 29 September 2026 Bowral (NSW) \nClick on your preferred location above for more details and to book tickets.

SUMMARY:The Arts of Japan: Highlights of Japanese Art and Culture
DESCRIPTION:This lecture traces the development of Japanese art across history\, encompassing painting\, sculpture\, and the applied arts. It explores Chinese and Western influences\, aristocratic and military tastes\, and the rise of Edo townsmen’s culture. The impact of Zen Buddhism on gardens and the tea ceremony offers further insight into the aesthetic. Japan’s reopening to Western trade in the 19th century and the Meiji era’s modernisation also shaped new artistic directions. \nDates and Locations \nTuesday 14 September 2026 Hunter (NSW) \nClick on your preferred location above for more details and to book tickets.
