WINE AND SAKE

In this issue, we feature two winemakers from France and one sake brewer from Japan, who share their passion for their

respective traditions and winemaking. The family-run Domaine Georges Mugneret-Gibourg in Vosne-Romanée, France, has been passed down from its founder to his great-grandchildren since its establishment in 1933. The experience and sensibility

accumulated through generations are now embodied in their exquisite wines. Similarly, Domaine Michel Gros, which has been family-owned since the 1830s, started from a small vineyard but has become one of the most respected winemakers in the region due to their sincere approach to winemaking.

Japanese sake brewer continues to preserve their traditions while exploring new possibilities. Iwao Niizawa runs the traditional

Niizawa Sake Brewery in Miyagi Prefecture, overcame the challenge of rebuilding his brewery from scratch after it was completely destroyed in the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. He now strives to create the ultimate sake to accompany food.

今号では、日本とフランスの 2 カ国の醸造家がそれぞれの伝統と酒造りへの情熱を伝えます。フランス・ヴォーヌ・ロマネの家族経営のドメーヌ・ジョルジュ・ミュニュレ = ジブールは、1933 年の創業から子孫へと受け継がれ、現在は創業者の曾孫らが経営を担っています。

世代を経て積み重ねられてきた経験と感性が今、珠玉の一本に込められています。ドメーヌ・ミッシェル・グロもまた、1830 年代から代々、家族で継がれてきました。小さな畑からスタートし、その真摯なワイン造りにより今では地域で最も尊敬される作り手の一人に数えられるようになりました。

日本の醸造家も伝統を継ぎ、さらには新たな境地への開拓に挑んでいます。宮城県で伝統ある新澤酒造を営む新澤巖夫さんは、2011年、東日本大震災で酒蔵が全壊する試練も。一から作り直し、「究極の食中酒」を突き詰めています。

新澤巖夫

The Spirit and Zeal of the Brewer Born in 1975 in Miyagi Prefecture, Iwao Niizawa graduated from the Department of Brewing and Fermentation in the Faculty of Agriculture at Tokyo University of Agriculture and, at the young age of twenty-five, he became the chief brewer at Niizawa Sake Brewery, which boasts a history of 150 years. In the same year, he developed the sake “Hakurakusei,” which has been served in the Japan Airlines’ First Class international flights for twelve consecutive years. Having been the brewer of “the ultimate food sake,” which is a perfect companion to a meal, Niizawa also serves as a business manager to preserve the Brewery and its rich history for future generations. We traced his journey with Niizawa Sake Brewery and heard about his undying passion for Japanese sake.

1975 年宮城県生まれ。東京農業大学農学部醸造学科を卒業し、25 歳の若さで 150 年の歴史を誇る新澤酒造の杜氏に就任。同年、JAL 国際線のファーストクラスで 12 年連続搭載されている日本酒『伯楽星』を生み出しました。「究極の食中酒」の造り手を経て、伝統ある酒蔵を守り継ぐ経営者を務める新澤巖夫さん。新澤酒造とともに歩んできた軌跡を振り返るとともに、飽くなき日本酒への探究心を語っていただきました。

ART World-renowned architect Tadao Ando continues to create architecture that breathes life into beloved cities. In addition to the beauty and novelty of his designs, he values the power of space to speak to people's hearts. His own passion and drive to keep moving forward are evident in his work. Also, we explore the thoughts and emotions that underpin the work of sculptor Kohei Nawa, who continues to break new ground in the world of sculpture. Bonsai artisan Kunio Kobayashi believes that "bonsai embodies the dignity of life" and always stresses the importance of the sanctity of life in his domestic and international lectures. The next head of the Ikenobo School of Ikebana, Senko Ikenobo, inherited the pressure of taking over an old family estate during adolescence but continues to pass down the teachings of her predecessors that "even withered flowers can be beautiful." Painter Toshiyuki Enoki has a philosophy of "finding what is lacking in this world and supplementing it with 'hope'," and his dedication to preserving traditional culture is also deeply moving. We also shine a spotlight on several curators who play a key role in appreciating art. Meruro Washida, who has curated various exhibitions and currently serves as the director of the Towada Art Center, has a desire to contribute to community development. Curator Yuko Hasegawa regards her profession as "connecting people with art" and strives to hone her skills in evaluating the value of art every day. Taeko Yamazaki, the granddaughter of the founder of the Yamatane Museum of Art, and now the third-generation director, talks about her belief in the role of museums as places of "quality hospitality" and "returning to the present." 世界的建築家、安藤忠雄さんは人々に愛される街に息づく建築を生み続けています。見た目の美しさや面白さだけでなく、「空間が人の心に語りかける力」も大切にしており、「前へ前へと無我夢中で進んでいる」という安藤さん自らの息づかいも伝わります。彫刻の新境地を切り開き、新たな造形美を発信し続けるアーティスト、名和晃平さんの作品に込められた想い。伝統文化の担い手の信念もまた心に響きます。「盆栽とは命の尊厳である」と語る盆栽職人の小林國雄さんは、国内外の講演会では必ず、「命の尊さ」も伝えます。池坊いけばなの次期家元、池坊専好さんは思春期の頃に旧家を継ぐプレッシャーもあったと語り、先達の「枯れた花にも華がある」という教えを引き継いでいます。洋画家、榎俊幸さんは「現実のこの世界に少し足りないものを探して『希望』を補ってあげたい」という哲学を持っています。今号では絵画などの作品鑑賞の立役者にもスポットライトを当てます。キュレーターとして、さまざまな展覧会を手掛け、現在は十和田市現代美術館館長を務める鷲田めるろさんは、まちづくりへの貢献の想いを持っています。同じくキュレーターとしての仕事を選んだ長谷川祐子さんは、「人々がアートと出会える場所を作る『つなげる仕事』だと考えています」という思いを持ち、アートの価値判断を日々磨いています。山種美術館創設者の孫で三代目館長として尽力する山﨑妙子さんは、「上質なおもてなし」や「今還る場所」としての美術館の在り方の信念などを語ります。

Born in 1975, Kohei Nawa is an artist based in Kyoto. In 2003, he completed his PhD in Fine Art Sculpture at Kyoto City University of Arts, and in 2009, he founded Sandwich Inc. Conceptualising the “epidermis” of sculpture as an interface that connects with the senses, he has been developing a series of sculptures titled “PixCell” since 2002, which revolves around the idea of cells and symbolises the information-driven society in the present day. In “Direction,” a series of paintings drawn by gravity, and in “Force,” an installation work in which black silicone oil streams down into space, his theme was the relationship between life and the universe, sensibility and technology. Through his flexible interpretations of sculpture, Nawa has created numerous artworks that offer a singular perceptual experience for viewers, as if the physical properties of materials are opening up before our eyes. We spoke to Nawa about a wide range of topics, including his creative practice, the background of his studio, and his vision for the future. 1975 年⽣まれ。京都を拠点に活動。2003 年に京都市⽴芸術⼤学⼤学院美術研究科博⼠課程（後期）彫刻専攻を修了し、2009 年「Sandwich」を創設。感覚に接続するインターフェイスとして、彫刻の「表⽪」に着⽬し、セル ( 細胞・粒 ) という概念を機軸として、 2002 年に情報化時代を象徴する「PixCell」を発表。⽣命と宇宙、感性とテクノロジーの関係をテーマに、重⼒で描くペインティング「Direction」やシリコーンオイルが空間に降り注ぐ「Force」など、彫刻の定義を柔軟に解釈し、鑑賞者に素材の物性がひらかれてくるような知覚体験を⽣み出してきた名和さん。今回はそんな名和さんに作品やスタジオの背景、そしてこれからの展望など、幅広くお話を伺いました。

Born in 1948, Kunio Kobayashi discovered bonsai at twenty-eight years old and has since taught himself the art. A master artist who has received the Prime Minister’s Award, the highest award at the Nihon Bonsai Sakufuten exhibition, four times, Kobayashi’s creativity continues to thrive even now, when he is in his late seventies. He is involved in spreading the art of bonsai both in and outside Japan, as well as in fostering new talent. We visited Shunkaen BONSAI Museum, which Kobayashi founded after fifteen years of planning and investing one billion yen himself, and spoke to him about the aesthetics of bonsai and his message for future generations.

The Ikenobo school of ikebana flower arrangement has a history that dates back more than 560 years. Their creations capture the freshness of young leaves, the vibrant colours of blossoms, and the beautiful shapes of life in all kinds of flora, even leaves that have been eaten by insects or that are withering at the tips. We spoke to Senko Ikenobo, who will be passing on the long history of Ikenobo to future generations as the next Headmaster. 560 年以上の伝統を持つ池坊のいけばなは、みずみずしい若葉や色鮮やかな花、虫食い葉、先枯れの葉まで、草木それぞれの持つ命の美しい姿を捉え、生け表します。長い池坊の歴史を次期家元として繋いでいく池坊専好さんに、お話を伺いました。 Gen de Art April 2023

FINE DINING This issue features the motto of Kenji Gyoten of "Sushi Gyoten," one of the two restaurants in Fukuoka and Saga prefectures to receive three stars in the Michelin Guide. Though initially hesitant to take over his grandfather's sushi restaurant, he resolved to face himself by traveling alone to New Zealand. His philosophy includes the idea that "unceasing devotion" is required to create sushi, which is sure to strike a chord with readers. We also introduce Jean-Bruno Gosse, a French cuisine artist who works in Burgundy. He explains how he learned to understand the flavours of locally sourced ingredients and the benefits of sustainable living from his mother, leading him to create the sublime restaurant Loiseau Des Ducs. 今号は、ミシュランガイド福岡・佐賀県版でわずか 2 店舗しかない 3 ツ星獲得店の一つ、福岡県の「鮨行天」の行天健二さんのモットーを伝えます。祖父が営んでいた寿司屋を継ぐことに当初迷いがあったものの、単身ニュージーランドに渡って自分自身と向き合い、決意を固めました。寿司を握るために「不断の献身心」が必要とも語るその哲学的言葉に、心打たれることでしょう。ブルゴーニュ地方で活躍するフランス料理のアーティスト、ジャン・ブリュノ・ゴッスさんも紹介。地元で採れた食材の味わいを理解すること、サスティナブルな暮らしのメリット、について母から聞いたことが至高のレストラン「ロワゾー・デュック」につながっていることが語られます。

The belief of Kenji Gyoten: The Youngest Michelin Three-star Recipient in Japanese History The restaurant “Sushi Gyoten” in Fukuoka Prefecture is one of the only two restaurants that have achieved three stars in the Michelin Guide of Fukuoka and Saga Prefectures. Gyoten’s Edo-style sushi—a culmination of carefully selected ingredients and the artistry of a craftsman developed over years of research—continues to enchant visitors to the restaurant. This establishment, which represents the Kyushu region, is led by Kenji Gyoten, who was born in Yamaguchi Prefecture and grew up watching his grandfather run a sushi restaurant. We spoke to him about his childhood, what prompted him to aspire to be a sushi chef, and his work ethics as a professional. 福岡県にある『鮨行天』は、ミシュランガイド福岡・佐賀県版でわずか 2 店舗しかない 3 つ星獲得店のひとつ。こだわりの食材と研究を重ねた職人技による江戸前寿司は、訪れる人を魅了し続けています。そんな九州を代表する名店の店主、行天健二さんは山口県出身。祖父が寿司屋を営んでいたという幼少期のお話や職人を志すようになったきっかけ、プロフェッショナルとしての在り方などについて伺いました。
