In 1942, artist and UC-Berkeley professor Chiura Obata and his family were sent to Topaz, a Japanese internment camp in Utah. Although they were not allowed to have cameras, Obata used his talent to do ink brush drawings of what he observed throughout the ordeal. His granddaughter, Kimi Kodani Hill, has compiled these drawings, along with photographs into this great book. The story of the family's year in the camp accompanies the drawings, as exhaustively researched by Hill. A must-read for anyone who loves art or anyone who wants one family's story of their experience. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Chiura Obata was one of more than 100,000 Japanese Americans forcefully relocated from their homes, work, and communities to the stark barracks of desert internment camps during World War II. As an artist faithfully recording the world around him, Obata's work from this period gives us a view into the camps that is at once honest and strikingly lyrical.Topaz Moon brings together more than 100 paintings and sketches from Obata's internment period, from the stables at Tanforan, California, to the barracks in Topaz, Utah. Edited by his granddaughter Kimi Kodani Hill, these images are accompanied by a text that draws heavily upon the letters of Obata and his wife, Haruko, family documents, and interviews with family and friends.
