Locations — The Hiroshima Library

The Hiroshima Library is currently installed at the Albert Seay Library of Music and Art, Colorado College, Colorado Springs.

It was first installed on a dining table in an abandoned house in Marfa, Texas (2015). It’s first official opening, complete with ice cream, was at BRUNA press + archive, in Bellingham, Washington, on August 6, 2019; it was installed there from August through October 2019. It spent almost two years, including through the pandemic, at the Japanese American National Museum, in Los Angeles (November 2019-August 2021) as part of Under a Mushroom Cloud: Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and the Atomic Bomb. It was installed at the food bank at Counterpath Press, in Denver, CO, from October 2021 into September 2022. It made a cameo appearance in “The Nakedness of Being,” a class taught by Eiko Otake at Colorado College (Fall 2024).

The Hiroshima Library is an itinerant reading room/collection of books on the US atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, and their ongoing afterlives
