Pictures of Belonging celebrates three trailblazing Japanese American women artists and asserts their rightful place in American art. Miki Hayakawa (1899-1953), Hisako Hibi (1907-1991), and Miné Okubo (1912-2001) were three of the most active and critically acclaimed American artists of Japanese descent in the years leading up to World War II. Their careers spanned eight decades and four US states, yet the full extent of their contributions remain underrecognized within twentieth-century American art history. This exhibition  is an unprecedented examination of these artists.
