Former Sakura-based sculptor Hiroshi Kubo has a range of works displayed across Sakura City, including pieces outside JR Sakura Station and Yukarigaoka Station to name just a couple. A special event at the Sakura City Museum of Art from October 24th until December 20th looks at a variety of sculptures created throughout his lifetime.
Kubo was regularly quoted as saying "everything that exists in this world is three-dimensional", and was known for never sketching his sculpture plans in a 2D format.
Adult admission to the event is priced at 500 yen.
