Previous Exhibit: Generation Nexus: Peace in the Post-War Era

WWII incarceration brought Japanese Americans and Native Americans together in disparate locations throughout the United States; both were victims of US government’s concentration and confinement policies. Betty Nobue Kano and Janeen Antoine curate artists who share this fateful history, in remembrance of those who lived it, and pay homage to their communities with sculpture, painting and poetry. These children of war, of “war brides” and GI Soldiers, of the camps, and of veterans of war from indigenous communities, Muriel Antoine, Fredrick Cloyd, Lucien Kubo, Emmanuel Montoya, Judy Shintani, Anthony Sul, and Hulleah Tsinhnahjinnie are the artists who give voice to peace in the post-war era.
