Mt. Akagi hazy in the distance, foliage fresh and lush, and the majestic sea of cherry blossoms at the foot of Mt. Haruna make Hara Museum ARC in the spring a symphony of beautiful views. But the word “view” can also refer to other kinds of scenery of an external or internal nature, each with a story or a viewpoint to convey.
The exhibition features works from the Hara Museum Collection by some of the most noted artists active today in which various scenes are depicted, each with a story that the viewer is invited to tell.
Why not come this spring to enjoy the views?
