THE WORLD OF BONSAI ARTIST KUNIO KOBAYASHI
New book illustrating the beauty of masterpiece bonsai Kunio Kobayashi has created and refined. Featuring outstanding and distinctive bonsai on display in the Sunka-en Bonsai Museum tokonoma as well as views of the garden.Bonsai is a natural beauty which develops and matures over time. The aesthetics of bonsai include elegance, refinement, wabi-sabi and the infinite nature of the universe. These can be seen in the Keido School of Display, the study of which inspired me to create both the tea house “Mukyu-an” and the Shunka-en Bonsai Museum. I have been involved in the bonsai world for over 33 years now and have created this series of books containing a compliation of the bonsai, containers, suiseki and tables which I have had the opportunity to work with. This is an important part of my life long ambition to spread the beauty of Japanese bonsai to the rest of the world. I hope that bonsai enthusiasts around the world enjoy and learn from this book
