內容簡介

A sweeping picture book biography about influential Japanese-American sculptor Aiko Ruth Asawa and her childhood spent in an internment camp, by award-winning author Caroline McCallister and rising star artist Jamie Green.

Growing up on a dusty farm in central California, Aiko Ruth Asawa lived between two worlds. She was Aiko to some and Ruth to others, an invisible line she balanced on every day.

But when Japan bombed Pearl Harbor, thrusting the world into war, suddenly she was Aiko, no matter how much her family tried to cut the lines connecting them to Japan. Like many other Japanese Americans, they were taken to a prison camp.

The same barbed wire that now separated Ruth from her old home would inspire her art for decades as she grew to become one of the most famous sculptors of the 20th century. Ruth made art that wouldn’t just hang on the wall of a museum - she designed public fountains and enchanting twisting wire sculptures that continue to beautify cities today.

In this gorgeous biography, readers will learn about the magnificent life of Ruth Asawa and her timeless contributions to the art world, perfect for fans of THE PEOPLE’S PAINTER and RADIANT CHILD.
