"A moving depiction of the Japanese experience in 20th-century America, centered on the Japanese internment during WWII. Hamanaka has painted a 25-foot, five panel mural summarizing this experience--an artwork that's a complex, elegantly orchestrated blend of realistic portraits, caricatures and traditional symbols that recalls the social protest art of the '30s . . .
