Getting site-specific installations down to a fine art
Kenpoku Art 2016! is one of the latest projects to appear in an area for which art has been a relatively niche concern. Despite the fact that Okakura Tenshin, one of the central figures of Japanese art history, set up shop in Ibaraki Prefecture in 1906, and Art Tower Mito consistently provides top-class exhibitions, Ibaraki mostly has a reputation for being a no-nonsense, conservative farming heartland. Parts of the prefecture continue to thrive on agriculture, but many small towns are struggling with problems of aging populations and infrastructure.

Tokyo bartender revives a 19th-century cocktail ingredient
The unsung hero of traditional Japanese cuisine is mirin, a deliciously sweet liquor made from sticky rice. Mirin is an essential cooking ingredient, used to balance the salty sharpness of soy sauce and to add luster to glazes. But prior to becoming a common fixture in the kitchen, the sugary beverage was prized as a luxurious tipple during the Edo Period (1603-1868), when it was imbibed at festivals and drunk as a health tonic. The drink grew in popularity as brewing techniques advanced in the 1800s, but was eventually eclipsed by sake — and later beer — as Japan's alcohol of choice.
