Asia Society presents its first major group show devoted to contemporary Asian American art in more than twelve years. Named after a Blondie's hit song, this uniquely conceived exhibition of works by seventeen Asian American artists-most of them born during the explosion of pop culture in the1970's-will draw attention to the most critical and prevalent themes current among today's young Asian American artists.
Asia Society's groundbreaking 1994 exhibition, Asia/America: Identities in Contemporary Asian American Art, showed the works of artists actively wrestling with their immigrant experience and the sensation of otherness. The current exhibition presents artists for whom other sensibilities and artistic questions have greater importance. One Way or Another includes works in a wide variety of media, including painting, sculpture, installations, and video.
