ARTIST ALAN NAKAGAWA LEADs FIELD TRIPS TO LITTLE SAIGON FOR OCMA
11.15.18
Learn more about historic points at Little Saigon and even paint, visit centers and a museum, and celebrate the New Year! The Orange County Museum of Art (OCMA) will offer six unique field trips to Little Saigon led by artist Alan Nakagawa. Nakagawa is one of six artists featured in the opening season of OCMA’s new temporary space at South Coast Plaza Village, OCMAEXPAND-SANTA ANA.
Nakagawa is interested in exploring how we visit and experience cultures and communities to which we do not belong. The following questions guide Nakagawa in this endeavor: As an outsider, what are the opportunities to learn about this community? How do outsiders visit a community they know little about? Should they visit, and why or why not? Is there a correct approach to this kind of exploration?
