Ceremony for Tenshin Okakura (2/2) by S-VA-HA
「Ceremony for Tenshin Okakura」concept text
Buddhist sutra recitation and Buddhist chanting were not only religious acts but also the traditional art. Japanese Tea ceremony was not only traditional art but also religious acts that were basic to Buddhism and Taoism. But, These traditional arts repeated on only traditional forms that could not connected the contemporary art. Izura Rokkakudo designed by Tenshin(Kakuzo)Okakura were not only thatched hut to traced Buddhist temple but also tea ceremony room , he layered some traditional forms to expression the new architectural space. Tenshin(Kakuzo)Okakura was not conservative traditionalist.
“In religion the Future is behind us. In art the Present is the eternal.” This text was written in “Book of Tea” by Kakuzo (Tenshin)Okakura and the proposition that were thrust for us.
Contemporary Buddhist Art unit S-VA-HA tried to connecting between the mind of Kakuzo(Tenshin)Okakura to Contemporary art. Our Performance layered traditional forms with the avan-garde expression that constructed by TETTA done tea offering to the portrait of Kakuzo(Tenshin )Okakura and Butoh as Nyoirin Bodhi -sattva with the gorgeous five colors robe and make herself up, Shugyo Kawakami and Yukihisa Hirabayashi were Buddhist priests of Japanese Shingon sect as well as artist chanting the Buddhist sutra and reading the“ Book of tea” written by Kakuzo”Tenshin” Okakura in Japanese text and original text in English.
Musical composition by John Cage has beauty of the quietness or expression of Minimal art were influenced by “ZEN Buddhism” and “ZEN Buddhism” got a chance to reconsideration in relation with contemporary art in 20th century, but our unprecedented performance was difficult from those art that influenced by Zen Buddhism. Our performance was answer for the mind of Kakuzo(Tenshin)Okakura that performance constructed cultural layer as traditional forms with the avan-garde expression as an unprecedented art, we did our performance in Izura Rokkakudo ,it was special place that designed by Kakuzo(Tenshin)Okakura and disappeared by tsunami of The East Japan Earthquake ,but after 2 years ,it was rebuild as like as Meiji era days.

伝統的形式と前衛的表現の文化的積層からなるパフォーマンスを、東日本大震災の津波による消失から2年を経て明治当時の姿で新しく再建された天心が設計した六角堂という特異な場で新しい芸術表現として試みる事このパフォーマンスを持ってその精神へのソ-ワ-カからの返答としたい。 平林幸壽(僧侶 / 美術家 / S-VA-HA) ※「Book of Tea」より筆者訳
Tenshin Official Trailer
One hundred years after the death of Tenshin Okakura, director Katsuya Matsumura pays tribute to this legendary artistic leader. Born in 1863, Okakura Tenshin became a well-known government official and an artistic leader. He was also a man of international perspective; he published The Book of Tea in English and introduced Japanese and other East Asian cultures and art to westerners. TENSHIN follows the great Tenshin Okakura as he establishes himself as a trailblazer in the art world who ultimately lead to the development and preservation of modern Japanese art in the Meiji era (a period during which dramatic westernization took place). Featuring standout performances from international stars, Shido Nakamura (Letters From Iwo Jima, Red Cliff) and Naoto Takenaka (Shall We Dance?, Hara-Kiri: Death of a Samurai) TENSHIN takes a close examination into the inspiring and sometimes volatile life of who most consider, the father of Japanese modern art.
