北野監督が仏芸術文化勲章受賞
3月9日、映画監督でタレントの北野武さんに、フランスの文化に貢献した人に贈られる芸術文化勲章の最高章「コマンドゥール」が授与された。
'Beat' Takeshi given French arts honor
At a ceremony March 9 in which the French culture minister lauded him for bringing spontaneity and a message of freedom to his big-screen productions, France conferred on Japanese film director "Beat" Takeshi Kitano its highest honor for arts and culture.
"I have developed a longing for Paris, the cultural center. (Receiving this honor) is like a dream," a joyous Kitano said after being named a Commander of the Order of the Arts and Letters.
Culture Minister Frederic Mitterrand, who bestowed the award at the Foundation Cartier museum, also said the 63-year-old director's works have extraordinary creativity and they made him aware of human diversity.
The museum will be showing Kitano's artworks to the public from March 11 through Sept. 12. Ahead of the award ceremony, Kitano gave Mitterrand a tour of his works at the foundation.
His films will also be screened at the Centre Pompidou museum in Paris for three months from March 11. (Kyodo News)
