Claska shopmy friend!!

On Saturday, we went to Roppongi and saw three different museums. First was the National Art Museum by Kurakawa. There we saw this amazing exhibition by NOMURA HITOSHI called PERCEPTIONS-CHANGES IN TIME AND FIELD. It was all about space and time, I had a existential experience ;) Next we went to Kengo Kuma's Suntory Art Museum. It wasn't anything memorable, unfortuantely. Last, we saw Tadao Ando's museum at the 21_21 design sight. The exhibit, "Bones", was really interesting. The following day, we wandered around Daikanyama and saw the Claska Hotel. It is this old hotle from around the 1950's that has been remodeled well. The gallery/shop was very nicely done. Downstairs was a dog grooming salon. There, I made a friend!!
