The history of Kobe Luminarie starts with an earthquake disaster. Although Luminarie of 1995 and the first time was held in December, this is not not due to be performed in Kobe from the first, It is said that it was planned as an event performed as a Tokyo millenium in Tokyo. However, this year Kobe earthquake happens, a schedule is changed, and it is a wish of the repose of souls in the ground of an earthquake disaster and Kobe to a victim. It will be carried out in order to collect a revival fund. It is said that the meaning of Luminarie is called "illuminations for a festival" in Italian. It is said that the art of such a light has developed as one of the decoration art from the 16th century in Italy. The direction called Valerio Festi of Italy carried the Luminarie into Kobe for the first time. It seems that the first time will be scheduled the Tokyo millenium be scheduled to be in a holding year for four years under the influence of an earthquake disaster, and to hold it at an end of the year in 1999. Since it seems to be a theme that people meet with a dream and joy and the Tokyo millenium incidentally comes into contact with, Implications may a little differ from Kobe Luminarie. The corridor of this soft light that is merely wrapped in warmly will be seen, and earthquake disaster that time will be remembered. Does it being cured, being impressed and shedding tears have many people of Kobe too? I think that the meaning of true Kobe Luminarie is just there and it is meaningful. |
