On December the , 2002 a chance meeting occurred that allowed for the reproduction of the L`Ecorche by Jean-Antoine Houdon, on exhibit at the Sculpture Hall and brought there by the founder of Silpakorn university, Thailand , Mr Corado Feroci or Silpa Bhirasri. who to this day is revered by that Art university.
Unfortunately, the school teacher responsisible for art education at the Tamagawa junior High School has a mediocre understanding of art education, consequently the students will never be given the chance, nor the option to study from this cast!
One main reason for my not teaching drawing cited was that there would be a language problem. !!! . ajapanese/american sculptor; Isamu Noguchi, his teacher; Constantin Brancusi, spoke neither English or Japanese, and Noguchi himself spoke little or no French or Romanian, but that didn`t stop the apprenticeship!!! |
