Born in California in 1926, Ruth Asawa grew from a farmer's daughter to a celebrated sculptor. She survived an adolescence in the Japanese-American internment camps during World War II, attended the groundbreaking art school at Black Mountain College, fought through lupus, and revolutionized arts education in her adopted hometown of San Francisco. She forged an unconventional path in everything she did-whether raising a multiracial family of six children, founding a high school dedicated to the arts, or pursuing her own practice independent of the New York art market. Her beloved fountains are now San Francisco icons, and her signature hanging-wire sculptures grace the MoMA, de Young, Getty, Whitney, and many more museums and galleries across America. In this compelling biography, Marilyn Chase brings Asawa's story to vivid life. She draws on Asawa's extensive archives and weaves together many voices-family, friends, teachers, and critics-to offer a complex and fascinating portrait of the artist. With 70 photographs and artworks reproduced throughout the book, this is a richly visual volume that invites readers to step inside Asawa's story"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status Due Date   Hawaii State Library Art, Music & Recreation 730.92 Asawa Ch Checked out 07/08/2024 Add Copy to MyList Hilo Public Library Adult Nonfiction 730.92 Asawa Ch Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Koloa P/S Library Adult Biography B Asawa Ch Checked In   Add Copy to MyList Makawao Public Library Adult Nonfiction 730.92 Asawa Ch Checked In   Add Copy to MyList
