From Ensō to Enso
In Japanese, "enso" has two different meanings; one referring to the circle painted in a single stroke in Zen calligraphy, the other to musical performance. We invite you to take a journey through the museum at night, a journey on which you will hone your senses and encounter ideas, philosophies and art shared by various cultures down through the ages. The starting point for this new journey will be Sengai's Ensō and Winds by composer Hayashi Hikaru, a piece that plays with different concepts of "wind." This hands-on workshop, using instruments, will explore the relationship between images and music.
