The exhibition Self-Interned, 1942: Noguchi in Poston War Relocation Center is on view. It explores Isamu Noguchi\u2019s experiences at the camp in Poston, Arizona, with works from the Museum\u2019s collection and archival documents.<\/p>\n<p>At 3:00 p.m. artist Kimi Maeda will present her solo performance Bend, which tells the true story of two men who were in camp during World War II: Maeda\u2019s father, Robert, an Asian Art historian who suffered from dementia at the end of his life, and the subject of his research, Isamu Noguchi. Weaving together live feed projections of sand drawings with archival footage from the 1940s, Maeda\u2019s performance poses important questions about how the Japanese American internment camps will be remembered.<\/p>\n<p>Free admission!
