scopecontent: label: Scope and Contents
content: This series contains 14 hours of unedited video recordings that chronicle Tsutakawa's journey from Seattle to central Japan to install his sculpture Fountain of Lotus, commissioned for the city of Fukuyama's new museum of art. The bulk of this content is original camera footage shot on location in Fukuyama, Kurashiki, Takamatsu, Seto Bridge Inland Sea, Kyoto, Adachi Museum, Hiroshima, and Tokyo. There is additional footage from a Hiroshima news segment broadcast at the time of the sculpture's dedication. All unedited video was recorded in 1988, and was then edited into a documentary George Tsutakawa: An Artist's Pilgrimage in 1990.
