Iijima receives award

Renee Iijima has been named the sixth recipient of the prestigious Catharine E.B. Cox Award for Excellence in the Visual Arts presented by the Honolulu Academy of Arts.

Her award will be presented in conjunction with a one-person exhibition to be displayed with the 50th annual "Artists of Hawai'i 2000" exhibition beginning September 2000.

Born and raised in Honolulu, Iijima studied art at Pitzer College in Claremont, Calif., Honolulu Community College and San Francisco Art Institute.

She is best known for her photography and mixed-media constructions dealing with themes of family, memory, identity and mortality.

In 1994, her show "ReViewing Paradise: The Ethnic Response in Contemporary Photography from Hawaii" toured the mainland.

Recipients of the Cox award must be former or current Hawaii residents, selected on the basis of demonstrated talent and promise, with first consideration given to young or emerging artists.

Past recipients of the award, presented every other year, were Dorothy Faison, Michael G.B. Tom, Laura Smith, Shigeru Miyamoto and Hanae Uechi Mills.
