Today, I revisited D312 Arch of Life because I really like this particular artwork and I wanted to take better photos of it.
今日は、D312 人生のアーチを再訪しました。この作品が本当に好きなので、もっといい写真を撮りたいと思って。
Two benches have been installed on the site.
ベンチが2つ設置されていました。
The only downside of this artwork is that these plants require a lot of maintenance.
この作品の唯一の欠点は、この植物に多大なメンテが必要だと言うことです。
(I was a bit disappointed by the lack of proper maintenance.)
(メンテがちゃんとしてなくて、ちょっとガッカリしました。)
I recently found a very interesting video (Japanese only) on YouTube, where Fram Kitagawa talks about this and other artworks in Echigo-Tsumari Art Triennale. At 2:30, he says that this particular artwork should be worth 10 billion (yen).
最近、YouTubeでとても面白いビデオを見つけました。北川フラムさんが、大地の芸術祭のこの作品などについて語っています。2:30に、北川さんは、この作品は恐らく100億(円)の価値があると言っています。
Regardless of its "market value", I like this artwork!
「市場価値」に関係なく、この作品が好きです!
Has the artist added new artwork to his collection? His concept reminds me of the Vigeland Sculpture Park in Oslo Norway. This one is about the generations of life.

okasan: Thanks for the link, but I just can't reach the one you mentioned from the site you linked to.

Thanks for the link, interesting work. Sorry that you can't open the one i sent earlier. I hope you can open this one. I really like the work of Gustav Vigeland as each sculpture has a meaning. Each piece makes you think about what the artist is trying to express. This site has many samples of his work displayed in the park. The most famous one is the boy having a temper tandrum.
