Join us on Free Third Thursday, October 19 for a film screening and discussion in collaboration with Pacific Arts Movement and the San Diego Asian Film Festival: "Rea Tajiri, History and Memory: For Akiko and Takashige" (1991) Filmmaker Rea Tajiri’s family was among the 120,000 Japanese and Japanese Americans who were imprisoned in internment camps after the attack on Pearl Harbor. Drawing from a variety of sources—Hollywood spectacle, government propaganda, newsreels, memories of the living, and spirits of the dead—"History and Memory" offers a poetic exploration of recorded history and unrecorded memory. About: Rea Tajiri is an award-winning interdisciplinary artist and educator who creates installation, documentary and experimental films. Her work situates itself in poetic, non-traditional storytelling forms to encourage dialog and reflection around buried histories. Tajiri is a Sansei who grew up in Rogers Park, Chicago and Van Nuys, California. She earned her BFA and MFA degree from the California Institute of the Arts where she studied post-studio art. Upon graduation, Tajiri began working in video art, two early shorts were included in the Whitney Biennials of 1989 and 1991.
