LATEST NEWS FOR MAY 2001
Recent times have seen the general public's perception of the Asian Pacific American / U.S. Asian communities vacillate a great deal. Much of this was created by the incident involving a U.S. spy plane crashing in Hainan Island of the PRC and its resulting consequences. Various unfortunate "backlash" incidents within the general public and the media have created false images of the APA communities. Combine this with the revival of IceBox.Com's infamous "Mr. Wong," lack of representation in the media, NBC's "Lost Empire," etc. have provided no effective means of communicating what is actual real. These just-mentioned situations provide greater evidence that correct and positive information contained within this website is important. FEATURED ARTISTS Since May is Asian Pacific American Heritage Month, the featured artists provide great tangible evidence of the great diversity that exists within our "Asian American Artistry!"
JUNE WATANABE Illuminated by her Japanese American heritage, Watanabe’s work and passion has been to capture the universality of the human condition within an Eastern temporal and spatial framework from various perspective - as she sees all arts as one. She was recognized by the San Francisco Isadora Duncan Dance Awards for a Special Award in 1991 (Time Over Time) and in 1994. Watanabe was one of thirteen Bay Artists profiled in 1991 for KQED's special series. Her last work (5/15/45 - the last dance) is contextualized in the Japanese American incarceration during World War II but extends beyond to embrace the universal tragedies of war, prejudice, injustice, and destruction.
