“Breaking Ground” at the Chinese American Museum

The timeline in CAMLA’s Journeys though reflecting a Chinese-American narrative is not strictly Chinese-American - it is shown as a timeline within America’s many cultural and historical narratives that run alongside and overlap each other.  You don’t have to be Chinese to understand the impact of choices based on discrimination, sacrifices based on a desire for a better life, and the determination for a better tomorrow. 

This was perfect foundation to then visit the current exhibition of Breaking Ground: Chinese American Architects in Los Angeles (1945-1980), to understanding the contributions of Chinese-Americans to Los Angeles’ culture and landscape (and beyond).  A part of Pacific Standard Time, this exhibition features four Chinese-American architects (Eugene Choy, Gilbert Leong, Helen Liu Fong, and Gin Wong) whose contributions were a part of Los Angeles’ urban and visual landscape between 1945 and 1980.  In this exhibition, stories are told not in just a visual sample of what was built, but includes blueprints, renderings, photos, and drawings of the process.
