The top 10 art museum exhibitions of 2016, plus the worst trend of the year
Los Angeles Times
By Christopher Knight
December 15, 2016

“Making Waves: Japanese American Photography, 1920-1940,” Japanese American National Museum

Support the understanding and appreciation of the Japanese American experience.
