aesthetics Japanese art and life are inextricably linked to nature and its effects on the human soul, a principle which is the basis of this dual exhibition that combines painting, poetry and ceramics in a confrontoincontro between periods. Poetry is the link between the old screens and contemporary ceramics. Screens on the doors of the unroll images of a poetic nature sometimes filtered from abstraction as fans of the screen that told in the second half of the Edo Period (below left), is sometimes represented with an almost photographic perfection as hawks, most of the real true, which occur in the screen-zu Kayo painting in the early Edo period, circa 1650 (below right). On the contrary, the poetry in the ceramics is suggestion in the suggestion of the title, the charm of the subject, spell of form as in the work of Mihara Ken Genesis (below right) and Nagae Shigekazu forms in succession (in left) brought to Milan by Wahe Yufuku Gallery Aoyama in Tokyo, the most important gallery of contemporary Japanese ceramics to which the British magazine Apollo (October 2010) devoted an important space.

Works elegant and sometimes whimsical, to affirm the identity of who leads them, the exact opposite of what is happening in the Western military areas, where the "split" work to undo the single personality. Are exposed blades, helmets, spears, armor, masks and accessories for Japanese warlords, designed as an element of social status as well as war and defense. Elegant in the essentiality of form as the series of 12 arrowheads (below center) of the Edo period, but just as refined on the contrary full of minute details in the description of the Japanese army at the start of the war the inro (below left ) Lacquer of the nineteenth century.
