Keio University
In 2012, the Keio University Art Center (KUAC) received a donation of materials related to Junzaburo Nishiwaki from Mr. Shun'ichi Niikura (Professor Emeritus of Meiji Gakuin University and a scholar of English literature) and has since been managing the Junzaburo Nishiwaki Collection in its art archive. Commemorating the 40th anniversary of his death, the exhibition is titled "Flora's Journey" and sheds light on the creative process of his poetic world, focusing on the poet's activities of walking—a physical movement—and his affection for roadside wildflowers.
