In honor of Asian American Pacific Heritage Month we remember the sacrifices of many Japanese-Americans during World War II. After the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the U.S. government passed Executive Order 9066 allowing the War Department to enact martial law and the forced internment of Japanese-Americans on the West Coast. As a New York resident, the Japanese-American sculptor Isamu Noguchi was exempt but chose to enter Poston War Relocation Camp in the Arizona desert in May 1942 to help improve the internment camp conditions. Many Noguchi’s works are represented in the Museum’s collection, but in 1961 he donated us this ancient Japanese ceramic horse’s head called a haniwa. Dating to the 5-6th century, this ceramic horse would have been placed on the earthen mound built above a tomb to provide protection and to act as a conveyance for the deceased’s spirit. #APAHM⠀
