East of the Pacific: Making Histories of Asian American Art

East of the Pacific: Making Histories of Asian American Art explores how the migration of people across the Pacific Ocean, from Asia to the United States, has profoundly shaped our nation's cultural and artistic landscape. By reframing the geography of the U.S. as not only west of the Atlantic but also east of the Pacific, the exhibition shifts our perception of American art and its key contributors, revealing histories shaped by contact, exchange, and collaboration.
