Produktbeschreibung

Painting the contradictionsof American life

Ben Sakoguchi: Only in America is the first monograph on the California-based Japanese American artist, whose career reflects the contradictions and complexities of American life. From early prints and psychedelic paintings to his celebrated Orange Crate Labels series, Sakoguchi combines history,advertising and satire to examine race, consumer culture, politics, war and memory.


This publication traces Sakoguchi s expansive practice and his distinctive visual language, which is playful, layered and deeply critical. His meticulously painted vignettes confront the history of Japanese American incarceration while examining systems of power, consumerism, and representation in the United States. Spanning six decades, the book reveals how Sakoguchi transforms personal and collective histories into incisive reflections on American culture.
