In 2013, Asian Pacific Islander Cultural Center (APICC) presented “75:
Flo Oy Wong . . . The Whole Pie,” a celebration of the seventy fifth
birthday of artist Flo Oy Wong. The exhibition, curated by Pamela Wu
Kochiyama, Darryl Smith, and Laurie Lazer of the Luggage Store Gallery,
opened on November 8th and closed on December 28th, with an opening
reception with the artist from 6 – 8 pm on November 8th.
For the exhibition, Flo invited 75 local, regional and
national artists to contribute art pies. All of these works created
by Wong and the invited artists share a common thread. They are
narratives which either address the deconstruction of a stereotype
or tell the stories of under-represented men and women whose lives
and hard work have made a significant yet unknown difference in this country.
