Special Exhibition

The Dharma Gate of Beauty —the concepts of beauty by Soetsu Yanagi

January 9th (Sat)–March 21st (Mon), 2016

In 1948, Soetsu Yanagi wrote ‘The Dharma Gate of Beauty’, receiving a revelation from the fourth vow of ‘Infinite Life Sutra’, primary text of Pure Land Buddhism. Yanagi finally made it clear why works produced by unknown craftspeople have been associated with supreme beauty. This exhibition will be composed of works which have close relationship with Buddhism as well as books and articles written by Yanagi, and will introduce the concepts of beauty.

※The detailed information on associated exhibition is available in the leaflet.
