I fell in love with the vivid colors at first sight!


I went to the Hiroshima City Museum of Contemporary Art to see Adrian Berg's first-ever special exhibition in Japan!


The works, capturing gardens changing with the seasons on a single canvas, were rhythmic and regular, creating panoramic landscapes that allowed me to imagine the infinity that is his theme forever.


Claude Monet's Water Lilies are famous for landscapes reflected on the surface of water, but while Monet slowly depicts the passage of time with light, Adrian's water surface reflects the colors so vividly and vividly like a mirror, it felt as if the concept of time did not exist at all.


Also, my favorite painter, Henri Rousseau, who paints wild jungles, has a sudden beauty and a powerful sense of ferocious wildness, whereas Adrian's works have a calm yet sustained oppressive feeling of color. I was deeply impressed to learn that this is due to the accuracy of perspective and well-thought-out composition.


Even among artists who share the same theme of nature, their works change significantly depending on the artist's intentions and , style so this was a fascinating exhibition full of new discoveries.


We encourage everyone to experience the Adrian Berg exhibition.
