Gazing at the Mugen~Natsu no Hoshizora Sculpture, you’re standing before a piece of Fuchu’s artistic heritage. The Mugen~Natsu no Hoshizora Sculpture, crafted from bronze, was installed in 1992. It’s located at the Fuchu City Local Forest Museum, adding a touch of artistry to this natural setting. The sculptor, Kitamura Seibo, originally from Nagasaki, viewed sculpture as a spiritual practice. His powerful and substantial male figures are his signature style. Kitamura is also known for his “Peace Memorial Statue” in Nagasaki Peace Park, a poignant reminder of the devastation of war and a hope for lasting peace. This Mugen~Natsu no Hoshizora Sculpture, with its strong and impactful depiction of the human form, was exhibited at the 4th Imperial Exhibition in 1922. It captivated audiences then and continues to resonate with viewers today. The museum itself provides further context to appreciate Kitamura’s work. It blends seamlessly with the sculpture, creating a space for contemplation and artistic appreciation.
