Staff members of the Adachi Museum of Art in Yasugi City, Japan, presented a program on the development and maintenance of the museum's gardens, which themselves are considered works of art, Thursday night, January 17 at the U.S. National Arboretum.
The museum's gardens are meticulously pruned, replanted and maintained creating, in effect, eternal mature gardens. They are viewed, not by strolling through the gardens, but from windows inside the museum. The gardens are designed so that the gardens and the distant forests and mountains have the illusion of a seamless whole. Go here for online views of the gardens.
