This book is the most comprehensive publication to date of Jimmy Tsutomu Mirikitani (1920–2012), a Japanese American artist raised in Hiroshima, Japan. From Nihonga (“Japanese-style”) paintings to intricate collage works crafted on the streets of New York, Mirikitani’s art narrates a life shaped by war, displacement, survival, and collaboration. Drawing from the formal traditions of Japanese painting and the raw immediacy of urban materials, his poignant oeuvre offers a critical narrative of twentieth-century transpacific history and unexpected modes of transnational artistic exchange. This volume features 163 color illustrations alongside scholarly essays and reflections that frame Mirikitani’s practice as both artistic achievement and political intervention. Maki Kaneko’s introduction situates the exhibition within the artist’s distinctive “street Nihonga” aesthetic—a collaged form of artmaking, storytelling, and community collaboration. Contributors Noriko Murai, Scott Tsuchitani, Yukinori Okamura, and Kris Ercums offer wide-ranging perspectives, including the transnational legacy of Nihonga, the memory politics of Japanese American incarceration, the evolving lineage of “A-bomb art,” and the curatorial process behind the exhibition. Linda Hattendorf and Masa Yoshikawa, Mirikitani’s close friends and documentarians, provide intimate insights into his life and art. At once scholarly and inviting, Street Nihonga encourages readers to encounter Mirikitani not as an artist of the margins but as a radical reinterpreter of convention and a witness to histories often left untold. This catalogue remains open-ended—a living collage and a call to engage with Mirikitani’s extraordinary life and work.
