Mount Haku Mount Haku, commonly referred to as simply Hakusan is the most prominent natural feature of Ishikawa Prefecture, located on the island of Honshu. Its name means “white mountain,” and it is, in fact, covered with snow for more than half of the year. A dormant stratovolcano, it has been estimated to have first been active 300,000 to 400,000 years ago, with the most recent eruption occurring in 1659. The mountain's tallest peak, Gozenga-mine, gives the mountain its height of 2,702 m (8,865 ft). Along with Ken-ga-mine, which is 2,677 m (8,783 ft), and Ōnanji-mine, which is 2,648 m (8,688 ft), the three peaks are considered "Mount Haku's Three Peaks" (Hakusan San-mine). Mount Bessan and Mount Sannomine are sometimes included and called "Mount Haku's Five Peaks" (Hakusan go-mine). Mount Haku is considered to be one of Japan’s “Three Holy Mountains” (San-rei-zan), the other two being Mount Fuji and Tateyama. It has traditionally been revered by the people of the area as a source of water essential for farming and as a navigational landmark for fishermen and others at sea. Taichō, a mountain Shugendo monk, first climbed Mount Hakusan in 717. For hundreds of years, people have come to Haku for prayers (Hakusan Shinkō). A branch shrine of Shirayama Hime Shrine, which served as the supreme shrine for Kaga Province, is on the mountain. The Shirayama Hime Shrine is the main shrine (sō-Honshu) of approximately 2,000 Hakusan shrines (Hakusan jinja) in Japan. The area surrounding Mount Haku is one of the few in Japan that contains outcroppings from the Jurassic period of the Mesozoic era. Many of Japan's typical examples of dinosaur fossils were found in this area. One of the major rock outcrops is in the Kuwashima area and is known as the "Kuwashima Fossil Wall" (Kuwashima Kasekikabe). The mountain is well known for its many onsen (hot springs), and for its diverse variety of alpine plants are found, including the chocolate lily, which is Ishikawa's prefectural plant. Many alpine plants were first discovered along the older hiking trails leading to Hakusan Shrine, and have Hakusan in their names. These include Primula cuneifolia (Hakusan Kozakura), Anemone narcissiflora (Hakusan Ichige), Dactylorhiza (Hakusan Chidori), Geranium yesoemse (Hakusan Fuuro) and Rhododendron brachycarpum (Hakusan Shakunage). Mount Haku was designated as a national park in 1962 and was renamed Hakusan National Park. Because the central part of the mountain has much precipitous terrain, there are very few roads and, as a result, little human intrusion into the area. Also limiting human intrusion is the designation of the park as a Wildlife Protection Area, covering over 38,061 ha. The park stretches beyond the mountain's borders into Toyama Prefecture. In 1980 an area of 48,000 ha was designated a UNESCO Man and the Biosphere Reserve. ABOUT THE SERIES 'AXIS MUNDI' "This body of work focuses on satellite images of sacred mountains around the world—places where heaven and earth are thought to meet. The phenomenon of revering mountains as holy sites is an archetype found in many cultures. "This shared experience finds a visual echo in the ubiquity of images of the earth that are now available to any person with a computer and an Internet connection. What does the specificity of place mean when we can move across the surface of the earth in seconds and reduce everything to a series of pixels? To me, this process recalls abstract painting, which transforms the specific into gesture and form. Rather than treat digital technology as necessarily destructive to human meaning and experience, my work offers new ways of seeing that are reconcilable with the old. To this end, I combine 19th Century Photogravure technique with 21st Century surveillance captures. "Axis Mundi consists of 64 copperplate photogravures. The work is laid out in a grid, which is an arbitrary conversion of the visual world into a flat space that happens both on the picture plane and in the data processing. The title refers to the belief in a 'world center,' often conceived of as a mountain: a place where communication between higher and lower realms is possible. This project is a search for such a center in a world of decentralization and fragmentation." —Beth Ganz ABOUT THE ARTIST Beth Ganz is a contemporary American multidisciplinary visual artist, who lives and works in New York City. She graduated from Pratt Institute with a BFA (honors) in Painting, Sculpture, and Printmaking. The focus of her work is the intersection of landscape, digital technology, and abstraction. Ganz works in paint, brush, and ink drawing, both independently and alongside digital and analog printing techniques, including photogravure and intaglio printing. Ganz’s work has been the subject of many solo exhibitions, including 'Atlas Project' at Cynthia-Reeves Gallery, 'Up Close and Far Away, Grids and Toiles: Beth Ganz at Wave Hill House,' Wave Hill, and 'Geothermal Topographies' at Reeves Contemporary. She has been shown in numerous group exhibitions, and her work is represented in many public and private collections, including the 9-11 Memorial Museum, the Library of Congress, the New York Historical Society, and the New York Public Library Prints...
