TEN LANDSCAPES: SHUNMYO MASUNO
By JAMES GRAYSON TRULOVE
Shunmyo Masuno has two callings: landscape architect and Zen priest. As an eighteenth-generation Zen priest at the temple in the remote suburbs of Yokohama, Japan, Masuno asserts that his two professions are intrinsically linked together and that it would be impossible to separate his landscape designs from his religion. Indeed, anyone experiencing his landscapes is struck by the simple, peaceful, Zen-like quality that they invoke. In this book, 10 of his works (1993-1998) are introduced.
