Adachi Museum of Art
The Adachi Museum of Art, located in Yasugi City, Shimane Prefecture, was founded by businessman Zenko Adachi. With the belief that "a garden is also a painting," he transformed a vast 50,000-tsubo (approximately 33,333 square meters) site into a Japanese garden that blends the beauty of nature and artifice. The main garden is a dry landscape garden that borrows scenery from the natural mountains. Other gardens include a moss garden where cedar, moss and red pine intertwine, a pond garden where koi fish swim, and a white sand and green pine garden inspired by the famous painting by Yokoyama Taikan. Each garden presents a completely different view in each season.
The museum houses works by modern Japanese painting masters such as Yokoyama Taikan, Takeuchi Seihō, Kawai Gyokudō, and Uemura Shoen, along with ceramics and calligraphy by Kitaoji Rosanjin, modern Japanese paintings, and lacquerware, totaling over two thousand pieces. These are exhibited seasonally in the main building, the new building, and the Rosanjin Gallery. The harmonious coexistence of gardens and artworks has earned the Adachi Museum of Art consistently ranked first in Japan by American magazines specializing in Japanese gardens, and it has also received the highest three-star rating from a French travel guide.
The dry landscape garden, which borrows scenery from the natural mountains, is the museum's representative garden. White sand, moss, and boulders create a calm and serene Japanese aesthetic.
Original Japanese paintings by modern masters such as Yokoyama Taikan are exhibited seasonally, with the artworks echoing the garden outside the window.
