The New Americans Museum presents its latest exhibition, "Inscription: A Monumental Installation" by Shinpei Takeda.
"Inscription" is meant to invoke dialogues of the shared traumas of displacement, and the possibility of collective healing through the activation of memory.
Takeda identifies himself as post-Americanized, culturally displaced Japanese living in Mexico and Germany, or as he otherwise calls it: hemispheric.
When he isn't traveling between Germany, the U.S. and his native Japan, he is a border dweller. He lives and works in Tijuana, crossing to San Diego regularly, easily falling back into the daily bustle of existing on the worlds busiest border crossing.
"Inscription: A Monumental Installation" is Takeda?s latest intervention. The site-specific work seeks to trace the complex relationship between monuments of memory and living narratives.
Admission/Cost: FREE
Location:
New Americans Museum
2825 Dewey Road Suite 102
Point Loma, CA 92106
Friday, November 6 - 5:00 PM
