Hiroshi Sugimoto at Benesse House


I've seen Sugimoto's work multiple times, but never installed like this.  At the Benesse House in Naoshima, his Seascapes are installed outside on a patio.  Looking at work in natural light completely changes the way it is seen, its absolutely true to the tones.  His pieces were on two perpendicular walls, and at the corner there is an opening where you can look out over an inlet and see his photograph on the cliff.  Contemporary art is seriously the best thing ever.
