Research Center for Japanese Garden Art Opens New Web Site
 http://www.kyoto-art.ac.jp/~j-gar
Last Updated: 9/19/2000
The Research Center for Japanese Garden Art is associated with the Kyoto College of Art, and the Kyoto University of Art and Design.
The aim of the Center is to integrate various research regarding the Japanese garden: history, design, aesthetics, archeology, and traditional gardening techniques.
The Center actively supports contacts with garden construction firms and gives advice to authorities that maintain historic garden sites in Japan.
For the students of the College and University, the Center acts as a place to practice or gain experience in one of the many aspects of the field; for professors and professionals, the Center is a place where theory and practice meet.
The new web site will allow the Center to reach people throughout the world who are interested in the gardens of Japan as well as provide information for their annual intensive seminar.
