2 THE GARDEN PATH FROM THE CEO Dear Members,

Each year as fall color settles on the Garden and we prepare for the holiday season, I reflect on what the Garden has accomplished and the role we’ve played in our community over the past year. Needless to say, with the completion of our expansion project and the opening of our new Cultural Village, 2017 has been a year like no other. It has truly been the start of a new chapter in the Garden’s history.

The past year has also been remarkable as we consider what we as a community have achieved, brought together by shared ideals: art of craft, connection to nature, experience of peace. You, our members and donors, are at the center of the Garden community, joined now to literally hundreds of thousands from around the world who have also shared in the Garden’s gifts.

In the coming weeks you’ll receive our appeal for year-end support of the Garden’s annual operating fund. As you consider our request, I hope you’ll reflect both on the way the Garden enriches your life, as well as on how it creates a community that defies boundaries.

In September, I had the opportunity to join our members for the Garden’s annual sake tasting event, which was incredible for two reasons. Seeing our new spaces used as we had envisioned and hoped was simply thrilling. Even more exciting was watching you, our members, catching up with old friends and making new ones. It’s what the potential of the Garden truly is – bringing people together.

This is also the time of year when all of us at the Garden are looking forward to the exciting year ahead. In 2018 we will take what we learned from our Grand Opening year and expand our artistic, cultural, and educational programming to realize the full potential of our new Cultural Village. Expanded exhibitions, added cultural festivals, more opportunities for learning, and new ways to bring our world closer together through the experience of Japanese art and culture. We’re particularly excited to introduce year-long thematic programming that explores the distinctive regional cultures of Japan, beginning in 2018 with Kyoto.

We come together as a community to make this vision a reality, and you, our members play the most crucial role of all: not only through your generous support, but more importantly through your participation in our work. Without you, the Garden would be unseen, and the Cultural Village would be an empty shell.

Sincerely,

Steve Bloom Chief Executive Officer

Our Garden Community: Conserving What We Love

“In the end, we will conserve only what we love. We will love only what we understand. We will understand only what we are taught.”

Those words from conservationist Baba Dioum perfectly sum up what we do at the International Japanese Garden Training Center.

This past year, the Center brought acclaimed researchers, authors, and de- signers— Ron Herman, Marc P. Keane, Leslie Buck, and Kendall Brown— to share their extensive knowledge and experience with our Garden commu- nity. This year’s programming included five popular Garden Workshops for the general public and our long-established Haiku Alive! program, which serves students in the Parkrose School District. We are still beaming with delight after our sold-out seminar, “Waza to Kokoro: Hands and Heart — The Use of Stone in the Japanese Tea Garden.” A participant described it as “one of the greatest learning experiences” of his life.

In 2018, we’ll be back with these programs and more - serving the Cen- ter’s mission: providing a place in North America for learning the skills and techniques for creating and stewarding Japanese gardens while acquainting learners with the cultural heart and soul of Japanese garden arts.

6 THE GARDEN PATH 2018 Waza To Kokoro: Hands and Heart Seminar Series

The three levels of the Waza to Kokoro seminar are designed to realistically help Japanese gardens serving communities across the country meet the need to find authentic, locally-appropriate solutions in design, construction, maintenance, and preservation. Admission is also open to landscape design and construction professionals, and students of landscape-related disciplines. 2017’s seminar was intermediate-level. In 2018, the offering will also include an entry-level seminar as well, that will provide an opportunity for a wider audience to enjoy this multifaceted educational experience. Applications for both the beginner and intermediate level seminars are now being accepted.

The planned dates are: Intermediate-level seminar: July 19-30, 2018 Beginner-level seminar: September 20-27, 2018

The seminar’s core focus is on stonework in the Japanese tea garden, taught by visiting Japanese instructors and Portland Japanese Garden staff. A traditionally-grounded, hands-on learning process is supplemented with preparatory theoretical instruction in drawing, design, garden history, aesthetics, traditional tool use, pruning techniques and other topics. The art form of tea ceremony provides an experiential cultural context. The various threads of the seminar are woven together to offer an immersive learning experience of not just the techniques but the cultural heart of the Japanese garden.

Dates shown are subject to change. The International Japanese Garden Training Center is supported by the Japan Foundation Center for Global Partnership. To learn more or register for programs, please visit japanesegarden.org/thecenter

CULTURAL FESTIVALS 1 Krunja 2 2 Chen Min Chun

HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE YEAR OF KYOTO In 2018, we introduce Kyoto’s Gion Matsuri, the oldest continuously celebrated urban festival in the world. Banks of lanterns and a performance by 20 Gion-bayashi musicians whose rhythmic chimes and flutes bring a multi-sensory experience of this magical festival to life in our Cultural Village. We will also focus on Kyoto craftsmen, bringing a group of five of Kyoto’s finest young craftsmen and women to present their latest creations—and on Kyoto cuisine, bringing a chef from Kyoto to provide a sample of Japan’s haute cuisine.

PORTLAND GOES TO KYOTO! We’re not just bringing Kyoto to Portland, we’re taking Portland to Japan. In early 2018, there will be a reception in Kyoto that introduces the Portland Japanese Garden to leaders of the community, particularly those in garden- related fields. This brings us another step closer to establishing a real cultural crossing between our Garden and the classic gardens of Kyoto, their builders and caretakers, for generations to come.

Masked and Revealed: The World of Bidou Yamaguchi

I was able to have a personal dialogue with the Renaissance masters that touched my soul. I have been able to experience their joy and sorrow. I have felt with my “ whole being their lives and deaths.”

For centuries, the human face with its varied emotional expressions inspired artists around the world. Noh is one of the oldest forms of theater performed today and has been handed down for more than 600 years. Japan’s Noh theater provides a place for exploring emotion and representing that human expression. Noh craftsman, Bidou Yamaguchihas taken the centuries old Noh mask tradition and turned it into innovation, adding his own style to the art of mask-making.

“Since childhood, the human face has fascinated me. I used to study the faces of people I met day to day, and was drawn to the faces I saw in paintings and sculptures whenever my parents took me to museums," said Mr. Yamaguchi.

The Western paintings of Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, or Vermeer’s Girl with the Pearl Earring had a profound impact on a young Yamaguchi (b. 1970). He saw the people depicted in the paintings with faces that were real yet unreal, fleeting yet eternal at the same time.

“Those faces have a fundamental beauty and personal meaning. They had an unforgettable impact on me as a child,” he said.

When Yamaguchi was twelve years old, his grandmother —who had been living with his family— passed away. Yamaguchi felt a deep fear and sorrow, having never experienced death before. All expres- sions of life, he said, had vanished from her face. It was his first sight of what he called a "death mask," yet, he said, her subtle beauty was emanating from her gentle, peaceful face and that consoled him.

Trained to make reproductions of historic Japanese Noh masks, since 2003, Yamaguchi decided to radicalize the traditional mask-making practice. “I had a growing desire to go further, toward a new world of beauty. My desire to go beyond my traditional craft – to create a new and different kind of mask – became stronger day by day."

10 THE GARDEN PATH MASKED AND REVEALED: THE WORLD OF BIDOU YAMAGUCHI

December 9, 2017 – January 14, 2018

For the past decade, Bidou has been exploring the meaning behind the eyes of such enigmatic beauties as the Mona Lisa and Girl with the Pearl Earring. He speaks of “a growing desire to go further, toward a new world of beauty.” From the private collection of Kelly and Steve McLeod, these eight masks reveal new directions in this ancient art form—creating unique visages that bridge worlds and challenge long-established tradition.

Bidou Yamaguchi

Yamaguchi’s masks apply the techniques, transformative spirit, form, and myste- riousness of Noh masks to iconic female portraits from European art history. He is gaining worldwide attention for his masks based on western paintings.

"I began working on a series titled Portraits, using the techniques and practices I had mastered during the previous decade. They were to be a new form of ‘repro- duction,’ using the faces of the Mona Lisa and Girl with the Pearl Earring, as well as ‘masks’ from other famous paintings.”

Like a human face, Bidou Yamaguchi’s work opens itself to much interpretation. Bidou’s role is one of a ‘traditional’ artisan who works to reproduce old masks and a ‘contemporary’ artist who uses his mastery to create new objects.

" While producing this series, I was able to have a personal dialogue with the Renaissance masters that touched my soul. I have been able to experience their joy and sorrow. I have felt with my whole being their lives and deaths. It would make me very happy if those who see my works can feel the essence of humanity through their beauty”

Originally from Fukuoka, Japan, Yamaguchi studied Noh mask carving with Gen- dou Ogawa, a Living National Treasure, before receiving his “master’s name” of Bidou in 1996.

Since 2014, Yamaguchi’s pieces have been on touring exhibitions in museums in such major American cities as Houston, Chicago, and Los Angeles. We bring sev- eral of Bidou Yamaguchi's contemporary works, from the collection of Kelly and Steve McLeod, to the Portland Japanese Garden for you to see these magnificent modern mask sculptures up-close and feel their varied emotional expressions.

Masked and Revealed: The World of Bidou Yamaguchi will be on display in the Tanabe Gallery from December 9, 2017 – January 14, 2018.

NOVEMBER/DECEMBER 2017 11 ART IN THE GARDEN

Mysterious Encounters: The Muted Dynamism of Noh LYNN KATSUMOTO, GUEST CONTRIBUTOR

Noh theater invites spectators into an ethereal world. Through hypnotic flute and drum, trance-like chanting of poetic libretti, and fluid dance movements of spectacularly costumed actors, Noh transforms the everyday to reveal glimpses of a world beyond. From the supernatural to the deeply spiritual, the realm of Noh is at once magical and sophisticated, quiet, elegant and abstract. It is the effect of enigmatic masks and oversize costumes of precious brocades that heighten the sense of the extraordinary, altering audiences’ perception of reality.

A history of theatrical styles preceded the emergence of the lyrical dance-drama known as Noh and informed its development. A tradition of ritual shrine dances & songs was already well established by the 14th century for eliciting blessings from the gods; comic, impromptu entertainments by itinerant performers celebrated harvest and planting seasons; concerts in the courtly milieu of aristocrats offered a sense of Chinese refinements. Merging these strands into skillfully adapted tales from the historic and legendary past by troupes of actors donning masks came to be called Noh, meaning “accomplished,” to distinguish them from other, more improvised, entertainments.

It remains today one of the world’s great performing arts, stunning to view, “ hypnotic, and capable of confounding normal perceptions to the degree that everything seen after experiencing Noh appears in a new way.”

During the Muromachi period (1392-1573), the shogun Ashikaga Yoshimitsu advanced the status of Noh through his patronage of the actor Kan’ami (1333-1384) and his son Zeami (c 1363- c 1443) who performed, wrote plays and put into writing ideas about the art of Noh. It was Zeami who conceived of Noh as an elusive, quiet beauty that permeates the style of theater known to this day for its austere stage and poignant masks. These and the many layers of exquisitely embroidered or brocade costumes imbue the actor with an oversized presence as he moves, seemingly floating, with the music and chanted narrations.

MIRRORS OF THE MIND: THE NOH MASKS OF OHTSUKI KOKUN October 14 – December 3 It was also Zeami who removed the action of Noh theater from the daily life of the romance or the war tale, and transported it into the realm of dreams. What takes place on stage portrays what lies behind the outward strivings of the mundane, and focuses primarily on the emotional interior. This world of introspection is expressed through a language of literary refinement, complex so as to draw each audience member into his or her own private sensibility.

A typical play introduces a principal, masked, actor as a wandering priest or traveler. This protagonist may encounter a peasant or tradesman who offers shelter in a humble abode. While asleep, a dream reveals a tormented past or hidden truth that releases him or her from the shackles of illusion, and leads to a cathartic change that sets the character free, enlightened so as to return to daily life without what had been a spiritual load.

The structure of Noh masks aids in this startling transfiguration of reality. Viewing a mask face on, you are presented with the bright face of the character; it appears to smile. When the mask is turned downward, its expression darkens as though the character were weeping. In carving each mask, much thought goes into the relationship between the upper and lower lids of the eyes to create a sense of depth; likewise, the indentation on both sides of the mouth is vital to enabling a multitude of expressions when worn by an expert actor. The masks are deliberately shorn of individualized features so that they can look like anyone. As mask carver Ohtsuki Kokun remarks, “The universality of Noh masks has been achieved through the heart’s blood that mask masters of old poured into contemplating how the stage affects the way the mask looks. This is the jewel that we must protect and pass on.”

The popularity of Noh has risen and waned through the flow of Japanese history. After its inception during the Muromachi period and its continued patronage by the military elite of subsequent eras, the study of Noh libretti became a cherished pastime, nearly de rigeur among the literati and prevalent even among widening numbers of literate commoners. But when the old order succumbed to modernization during the Meiji period (1868-1912), Noh was one of the traditions at risk of being left behind. It is interesting to note that in 1879 when Ulysses S. Grant visited Tokyo as part of his worldwide goodwill tour, his Japanese hosts arranged for a performance of Noh to entertain the retired general and former US president, apprehensive, no doubt, that he would find its pace dull to the point of torpor. Instead, a record of the event shows that Grant expressed great admiration, and remarked to his hosts, “You must preserve this.” It remains today one of the world’s great performing arts, stunning to view, hypnotic, and capable of confounding normal perceptions to the degree that everything seen after experiencing Noh appears in a new way.

22 THE GARDEN PATH Awaken the Senses

Known as koh in Japanese, incense was first brought to Japan from China by Buddhist priests in the 6th century. Around the same time, aromatic aloeswood, or Jinkoh, washed ashore and excited locals with its distinctly pleasant scent. Since then, incense has long played a vital role in Japanese culture, its presence found everywhere from fragrant Buddhist rituals to a form of time-keeping between geisha and their clients.

Incense is produced by mixing natural gums, precious resins, and floral ingredients with organic materials and pressing the mixture into noodle-like strings or molding it into cones and coils. These are then cut to size before being dried in just the right amount of air and light. Lastly, they are aged several days and then carefully packed to be shipped off and enjoyed. Incense is an ideal companion for one looking to calm the mind and awaken the senses!

Find a selection of Japanese incense in the Garden Gift Shop.
