Since the 1950s, many Japanese artists have made their homes and
careers in New York--some for enhanced exposure to the
international art world or to challenge themselves to take their
artwork in new directions, and others to escape restrictions faced
in their native country. This fascinating book presents work by 33
important New York-based Japanese artists, ranging from young,
emerging talent such as Misaki Kawai and Hiroki Otsuka to
established luminaries such as Yoko Ono and Ushio Shinohara. These
diverse artists work in a variety of media--including video,
painting, fashion, architecture, sculpture, performance, drawing,
photography, and sound. Making a Home features a portfolio
selection of the images, and essays situate the artists and their
work within the broader themes that predominate Asian and
international contemporary art. With a biography and bibliography
on each artist--as well as a critical biography of Yayoi Kusama
that reexamines her early years in New York--this handsome book
also explores Japan Society's pivotal role in supporting the
careers of contemporary Japanese artists in New York. Distributed
for the Japan Society Exhibition Schedule: Japan Society Gallery,
New York (October 5, 2007 - January 13, 2008)
