THE FIRST KARAOKE: ENKA!
Thursday, March 2, 2017 at 12:00PM

George J. Doizaki Gallery
244 S San Pedro St.
Los Angeles, CA 90012

OPENING RECEPTION FEBRUARY 26, 1 - 3 P.M.

Bruce Yonemoto’s new body of work, a multi-channel media installation refreshes the original political content of Enka songs - traditional-style Japanese popular ballads - by enlisting the help of artists to write contemporary lyrics to recently popular Enka melodies. In addition to Yonemoto’s installation, an installation of vintage Enka album covers will be on display. Artists participating include Kaz Oshiro, Koki Tanaka, Taro Hattori, among others. Enka! is made possible in part by a grant from the Pasadena Art Alliance.
