During twenty-five years of collaboration, Bruce and Norman Yonemoto have created an impressive array of perceptive, inventive, and provocative films, single-channel videos, video installations, and objects that explore the creation of meaning through filmic representation and analyze mass media's hold on our perceptions of personal identity. Using film and video as both a medium and a theme for their art, the Yonemoto brothers search and examine a cross-cultural territory of interdimensional thoughts and personalities. An elegant and comprehensive monograph containing in-depth commentary and extensive stills from such internationally recognized works as, Based on Romance and Green Card: An American Romance. A long-awaited book on two of Southern California's major contemporary video artists.
