• Exhibition at the Barnes highlights Japanese artists from WWII internment camps (whyy.org) — A new exhibition in Philadelphia spotlights six Japanese American artists whose work was shaped by World War II incarceration, including pieces created from memories of the Tanforan Assembly Center in San Bruno. The show connects familiar designs like The Godfather book cover to the often-overlooked stories of interned artists, and highlights how trauma, resilience, and everyday objects from camp life still echo through their later work.
