'California Collectives: Asian American Moderns, 1924-1965' Opens November 21 in Monterey Park: More Than 50 Works by Japanese, Chinese, Korean and Filipino American Artists
California Collectives: Asian American Moderns, 1924-1965 opens November 21 at the Vincent Price Art Museum in Monterey Park, Los Angeles County, California, and runs through March 6, 2027. On view on the campus of East Los Angeles College, the exhibition presents more than 50 works by Japanese, Chinese, Korean and Filipino American artists.
The exhibition was organized by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) in collaboration with the Riverside Art Museum, the Vincent Price Art Museum and the Ontario Museum of History & Art. All works are drawn from LACMA's collection, and the show is part of Local Access, a series of American art exhibitions created through a multi-institutional partnership formed by LACMA as part of the Art Bridges Cohort Program.
LACMA says the exhibition examines the influence of Asian American artistic networks in California between 1924 and 1965, a period marked by the rise of anti-immigration and anti-Asian laws. Amid xenophobia and racial discrimination, California-based artists of Asian descent formed thriving collectives and staged high-profile exhibitions across the state.
The touring exhibition was first presented at the Riverside Art Museum from July 26 to November 1. Monterey Park is its second stop; it travels next to the Ontario Museum of History & Art, opening March 25, 2027.
The Vincent Price Art Museum, at 1301 Avenida Cesar Chavez, offers free admission. Hours are Tuesday through Friday, noon to 4 p.m., and Saturday, 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.; the museum is closed Sundays and Mondays, and visitors check in at the front desk. Campus parking is $2 per day.
