“Beyond the Wall: Visions of the Asian Experience in America”, features large mural works by contemporary artists JUURI, Hiromi Moneyhun, Elena Ohlander, Boy Kong, and Casey Kawaguchi. The exhibit is at the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens is located at 4000 Morikami Park Road, Delray Beach and runs through September 25, 2022.

Asian immigrants have played a fundamental role in the building of this nation in all facets of life, including agriculture, business, medicine, technology, and the arts. Beyond the Wall features the work of five dynamic contemporary artists of Japanese and Asian American descent who explore their cultural heritage and individual identities through the powerful, large-scale medium of the mural. The artists’ integration of Eastern aesthetics or concepts into a Western world construct reveals a greatly expanded narrative of identity. In this compelling exhibition, we discover their unique story and voice.

Museum hours are Tuesday through Sunday, 10:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. The museum is closed Mondays and major holidays. For more information on the Morikami Museum and Japanese Gardens, please call (561) 495-0233 or visit morikami.org.
