Went to see the Hokusai exhibit at the Sackler Gallery–most favorite piece is “Thunder God”, though his later more spiritual works were also moving. I like this gallery quite a lot. It puts on thorough shows. You get a feel for the artist–enough so that you want to learn more–without it being overdone or overwhelming. My only complaint about this one was that none of the explanatory signs had Japanese translations, despite the fact that the exhibit was attended largely by Japanese people the day we were there. I think that would have been a nice touch and certainly a generous gesture to the benefactors of the exhibit.
Open until May 14.
