"Naoshima has become the ultimate destination for those seeking a transcendental visual experience. Visitors are drawn to the island's unique blend of art and nature, creating a serene atmosphere."
"The sculpture Porte Vers l'Infini seems to intensify the beauty of its surroundings, making the sky appear bluer and the hills lusher, inviting visitors to connect with nature."
Naoshima, once dominated by pollution from a Mitsubishi plant, was redeveloped in 1989 by billionaire Soichiro Fukutake into Japan's art island. It features concrete-walled galleries designed by Tadao Ando, showcasing works from artists like Claude Monet and Yayoi Kusama. The island attracts visitors seeking a profound visual experience, highlighted by the Porte Vers l'Infini sculpture by Lee Ufan, which enhances the natural beauty of the surroundings. Lee Ufan, turning 90 soon, has two dedicated museums in Naoshima and Arles, France.
