Philippine Bonsai Society 2011 Exhibit Report by JUN...

I am proud to report the progress of Philippine bonsai, We are getting more varieties in terms of species and the designs are much much better than the previous years...

The designs are turning more natural looking, different from that of the Indonesian style or Taiwanese and Chinese or Europeans... I think we are heading on the right bearing...Filipino design.

I took the photos at random shots without separating good trees from the not so that everybody can see the true spirit of the exhibition.
 Judging by the respected Masters from Taiwan ends at Dusk...

I am also proud to announced that the guy who got the best in show is a fellow IBC member but I wont spoil the fun for him until he got the award.

more to follow.......

National Bonsai & Suiseki Exhibition 2011 at Jakarta

Hi Bonsai Lovers

Indonesia is one of the leading nations in bonsaiart today. Last Sunday I was invited to the opening of the NATIONAL BONSAI & SUISEKI EXHIBITION 2011 in Jakarta. It takes place in Gandaria City from 6 till 13 March 2011. There I had the opportunity to meet many bonsaiartists from Indonesia and VIPs from Japan, Korea, Taiwan and the Philippines as well, too. Japan has sent a group of representatives with the chairman of ASPAC Takamatsu 2011, Yukihiko Konishi. Sitting in the first row together with all this VIPs I really felt very honored but a bit insecured too.

306 Bonsai and 147 Suiseki are displayed, some has been chosen by a jury to got an award. Budi Sulistyo, chairman and organizer of this interesting exhibition, kept his calmness all the time and so the event was a great success. Budi also takes the responsibility for the beautiful catalog which shows the great variety of tropical bonsai and amazing suiseki in Indonesia.

I hope you enjoy my report.
With greetings from Bali
Peter
