Exhibitions like “Asian/American/Modern Art” have significantly raised the profile of Asian American art in the 21st century. The increased exposure demands a reconsideration of the vital role art historians and curators play in shaping the study of Asian American art.

This panel presents current approaches to the field and pays careful attention to the multiplicity and heterogeneity of Asian American artistic expression. The speakers offer critical exploration of and unique insights into the cultural and political issues that are radically shifting the terrain of Asian American art and art history today.

“Asian/American/Modern Art” represents the first comprehensive survey of Asian American artists, and seeks to advance awareness of this underrepresented group in American art history.

Their art reflects the currents of identity and style that shift between aesthetics of diverse international geographies. This exhibition demonstrates the wealth of Asian American art using masterpieces spanning 70 years. Nearly 100 works by 60 artists, many of whom had their work exhibited at the de Young or Legion of Honor in earlier decades, are included.

The exhibition is organized by the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco in association with Stanford University. The curators are Daniell Cornell, former curator of American art at FAMSF and deputy director of the Palm Springs Museum of Art, and Mark Johnson, professor of art at SFSU.
