NTEU Lecture 2012, David Williamson AO, “Living dangerously: The future of creative arts education in Australian universities".
Fremantle, WA, 15 Nov 2012.
The dai-kodo (large lecture hall) was moved from Sakamoto up to Enryaku-ji in 1964 when it was known as the Sanbustu-do. It houses images of Dainichi Nyorai as well as other artwork related to important leaders of the Tendai sect.
Enryaku-ji is a sprawling temple complex located on one of Japan's most sacred mountains, Hiei-zan. It was founded by Saicho, who was mainly responsible for bringing the Tendai sect of Buddhism from China in the later part of the 8th century. At one point, the Enryaku-ji complex had as many as 3,000 sub-temples and became a powerful force both politically and militarily. These factors forced action by daimyo Oda Nobunaga who wanted to rid himself of factions such as the Enryaku-ji and Hongan-ji monks. Most of the complex was destroyed by Nobunaga in 1571. Today, it can be reached via cable car from either the Otsu or Kyoto side of Mt. Hiei. However, if you are scared of heights, I don't recommend it. It is the longest (2025m), and possibly the steepest cable car journey in Japan.

Slide shown by Mahendra Patel in a lecture at the Gutenberg Museum in Mainz on Friday, June 25, 2010. M.C. Patel spoke about results from workshops that he had conducted at various schools around the world. The workshops span a long-period of time; I think that the oldest results were from 1990, although there could have been some 1980s student work in the mix.
M.C. Patel was in Mainz to receive the Gutenberg Prize, which was bestowed upon him on Saturday, June 26, 2010. He was selected in large part for his work as a typeface designer in multiple Indian scripts, I believe.
