    十日町市まできて国宝の「火焔型土器」を見ない手はないと、大地の芸術祭アート鑑賞の合間を縫って訪ねた。2020年に新博物館として開館したという白い建物は、縄文土器や雪の結晶をグラフィック化した外壁が目をひく。エントランスを進むと「縄文時代と火焔型土器のクニ」という展示コーナーがあり、その一角に国宝展示室がある。「火焔型土器」は縄文時代中期に新潟県エリアで栄えた土器様式で、燃え上がる炎を象ったかのよう...

    越後妻有「大地の芸術祭」の折、ボルタンスキーの遺作といわれる「森の精」やその他のアート作品を鑑賞するために立ち寄った。アート作品はともかく、驚くのはその外観。キョロロの建物外壁は鋼鉄の板、つまり鋼板で全面サビで覆われている。雪深い里山の生物多様性に関連した展示や体験プログラムで里山を学べる体験型の自然科学博物館で、様々な混入標本もあり昆虫好きには嬉しい施設だ。塔に設えたイルミネーションや巨大昆虫ビ...
