  • Transmitting the Attractions of Bonsai ---The Omiya Bonsai Art Museum, Saitama
    From Omiya to the World: Transmitting the Attractions of Bonsai ---The Omiya Bonsai Art Museum, Saitama--- Bonsai Garden (This article was written by Ms. Rumiko Ishida, a curator at the Omiya Bonsai Art Museum, Saitama, in commemoration of the holding of the World Bonsai Convention in Saitama City in April 2017.) Although readers may have heard the term “bonsai” at least once, probably there are not so many of you who are actually engaged in growing bonsai. In Saitama City, however, bonsai (dwarfed potted plants) are familiar to many people, young and old alike. Local elementary school children grow bonsai at school, and bonsai classes are held in district community centers. One of the reasons is the existence in the city of the Omiya Bonsai Village, which has nurtured the development of a unique bonsai culture in the district. (After the Great Kanto Earthquake in 1923, some bonsai gardeners in Tokyo moved out to Omiya and built the Omiya Bonsai Village.) Here I would like to introduce the Omiya Bonsai Art Museum, which is located in the Omiya Bonsai Village. Exhibiting Bonsai All Year Round Foreigners visit the Omiya Bonsai Art Museum almost every day. Bonsai is now popular internationally, and there are aficionados around the world. When it comes to museums on the subject, however, the Omiya Bonsai Art Museum is perhaps the only one of its kind in the world. Overseas, bonsai exhibitions tend to be limited to designated spaces in botanical gardens and so on. IHCSA Café International Hospitality and Conference Service Association (IHCSA) The main characteristic of the Omiya Bonsai Art Museum is that it exhibits living bonsai as a living art.

Immanuel Wallerstein.1 Introduction Comprehensive attempts to synthesize and interpret social interaction in spatio-temporal processes have been exhausted in the fields of interdisciplinary endeavor. Theoretical approaches ranging from social geography to cultural studies emphasize the key role of social organization and practices (self-representation) not only in constructing a sense of belongingness within a particular setting but also understanding and transforming the inhabited landscape. Social landscapes throughout the Asia Pacific region are vivid portraits of communication and assimilation that involve intensive negotiation of vexed realities oscillating between tradition and innovation, and between orthodoxy and pragmatism. Therefore, the analytical basis for the discussion of social landscapes in the present 1 Immanuel Wallerstein (2004). The Uncertainties of Knowledge. Philadelphia: Temple University Press, p.
