During that time, I was able to visit and make connections with leaders of public gardens from around the world and I came to realize one thing that all our gardens do, something that has taken on new importance in our tumultuous world. Gardens create a space for peace. Our heart rate slows when we en- ter, we let our guards down, and we become more receptive to the world around us. We are able to truly listen. Perhaps you’ll agree with me that 1 a big cause of the problems in the world today is that we are not able to listen to one another. Portland Japanese Garden was created by a group of citizens and city lead- ers to heal the wounds left by World War II. Some were against this. But time has proven that our Garden has led to greater understanding of Japan and the Japanese people and played a role in fostering a lasting peace between our nations. Isn’t it also possible that public gardens, in particu- lar culturally specific ones, could help us achieve peace in the face of the many political and cultural challenges the world faces today? In 2020, the Year of Peace, we will convene groups to explore the ways public gardens can promote peace. Over the coming months, you will hear more about Portland Japanese Garden’s expanded international work to bring people together for dialogue and to pursue this goal. We will enrich our own community by making Portland a world center for creating peace through cultural understanding and the experience of nature. Above all, we will continue stewarding our world-class gardens and presenting vibrant cultural programming so that we, and those who visit us from around the world, can have a space to think about our shared humanity and common values, and to create a bit more peace in the world. As we ask you in the coming weeks to make a year-end contribution to Portland Japanese Garden, I hope you will be inspired to be a part of this important work.

It is what moves people to peace when they visit, and it’s the keystone in building a bridge to peace." —AKIHITO NAKANISHI, Portland Japanese Garden’s Arlene Schnitzer Curator of Culture, Art, and Education 1 Chris Ruggles 6 THE GARDEN PATH In 2020, Portland Japanese Garden will celebrate the 75th anniversary of the end of World War II and the deep friendship that has grown between Japan and the United States.

  • The Shôkyû Version of the Kitano Tenjin Engi Emaki: a Brief Introduction to Its Content and Function
    Eras Edition 11, November 2009 – http://www.arts.monash.edu.au/publications/eras The Shôkyû version of the Kitano Tenjin engi emaki: A brief introduction to its content and function Sara L. Sumpter (University of Pittsburgh) Abstract: This article examines the political and social atmosphere surrounding the production of the thirteenth-century hand scroll Kitano Tenjin engi emaki (Illustrated Legends of the Kitano Shrine), which depicts the life, death and posthumous revenge of the ninth-century courtier Sugawara no Michizane. The article combines an analysis of the content and religious iconography of the scroll, a study of early Japanese beliefs in angry spirits of the dead, and a narration of the actual life of Michizane in an attempt to produce a sketch of the rituals and superstitions of Heian and early Kamakura period Japanese society, and to suggest possible functions of the hand scroll that complement them. The hand scroll sets collectively known as the Kitano Tenjin engi emaki (Illustrated Legends of the Kitano Shrine) each tell the story of the life and death of the ninth- century courtier and poet, Sugawara no Michizane (845–903), and of the posthumous revenge undertaken by his vengeful spirit (onryô). According to the scrolls, Michizane was falsely accused of treason by rivals at the Heian court who were jealous of his astronomical rise to power. He was exiled to Dazaifu on the island of Kyushu in 901 and died there two years later in despair. His spirit persisted in seeking retribution against his enemies and in reclaiming his position and honours. He is said to have stalked his numerous rivals in the form of the thunder god (raijin) before ultimately revealing to a frightened court, through a series of intermediaries, the means of his pacification: deification and worship at the Kitano Shrine in Kyoto.1 Today the Kitano Tenjin engi emaki (hereafter referred to as the Tenjin scrolls) number more than thirty extant examples, ranging in date from the early thirteenth century to the nineteenth century.

  • Representations of Pleasure and Worship in Sankei Mandara Talia J
    Mapping Sacred Spaces: Representations of Pleasure and Worship in Sankei mandara Talia J. Andrei Submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences Columbia University 2016 © 2016 Talia J.Andrei All rights reserved Abstract Mapping Sacred Spaces: Representations of Pleasure and Worship in Sankei Mandara Talia J. Andrei This dissertation examines the historical and artistic circumstances behind the emergence in late medieval Japan of a short-lived genre of painting referred to as sankei mandara (pilgrimage mandalas). The paintings are large-scale topographical depictions of sacred sites and served as promotional material for temples and shrines in need of financial support to encourage pilgrimage, offering travelers worldly and spiritual benefits while inspiring them to donate liberally. Itinerant monks and nuns used the mandara in recitation performances (etoki) to lead audiences on virtual pilgrimages, decoding the pictorial clues and touting the benefits of the site shown. Addressing themselves to the newly risen commoner class following the collapse of the aristocratic order, sankei mandara depict commoners in the role of patron and pilgrim, the first instance of them being portrayed this way, alongside warriors and aristocrats as they make their way to the sites, enjoying the local delights, and worship on the sacred grounds. Together with the novel subject material, a new artistic language was created— schematic, colorful and bold. We begin by locating sankei mandara’s artistic roots and influences and then proceed to investigate the individual mandara devoted to three sacred sites: Mt. Fuji, Kiyomizudera and Ise Shrine (a sacred mountain, temple and shrine, respectively).

    THE GARDEN PATH Photo: Jack Jakobsen MAY 2016 • VOLUME 15 • NUMBER 5 ART IN THE GARDEN 2016 AMERICAN BONSAI: THE UNBRIDLED ART OF RYAN NEIL “It’s bonsai. As in ‘bone’ and ‘sigh.’” But, artist Ryan Neil said he’s loosened up over the years on the issue of pronunciation. “Bonsai” is a Japanese word, but the context for cultivating trees in shallow containers originated in China as an art form known as penjing. Penjing was a practice rooted in Buddhism that connected man to the environment and brought the spirit of wild places closer to home. It migrated to Japan with Buddhism, as a spiritual practice, and slowly evolved into bonsai under the influence of Japanese culture. That connection of man to the environment is at the heart of the second Art in the Garden exhibition of the year (May 21st through June 19th). Titled American Bonsai: The Unbridled Art of Ryan Neil, the exhibition focuses solely on American species of trees, designed to directly reflect the character of American culture and the landscapes in which our culture has been formed. “Much the same way penjing evolved into bonsai, we are witnessing another evolution in the way we use these tiny trees to express and embody our own American landscape and the spirit of American culture,” said Mr. Neil. Ryan Neil was born and raised on the Western slope of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. He became fascinated with the landscape Photo: Chris Hornbecker and its fantastic array of wind-swept trees.
