The 1.5 generation is a group of immigrants who are not children and not yet adults, literate but not yet fully intellectually formed. This exhibition highlights the work of these artists. It examines whether artists of the 1.5 generation propose a particular orientation to their work as they are confronted by issues of immigration, cultural dislocation, memory, hybridism, acceptance and exile in their everyday lives.
