SUMMARY:Film Screenings - The Face of Time: Recent Films by Tsai Ming-Liang
DESCRIPTION:Rare and valuable is the filmmaker who expands one’s conception of the cinematic art; rarer still is the filmmaker who enlarges one’s notion of the term “director.” Malaysian-born\, Taiwan-based auteur Tsai Ming-liang (b. 1957) accomplished the former with his rigorous\, uncompromising and reputation-defining features of the nineties and early 2000s\, and ever since his self-declared retirement from narrative filmmaking after 2013’s Stray Dogs\, he has been anything but inactive while exploring the endless permutations of what it means to be an image maker in the 21st century. Among the many formally adventurous international filmmakers who have struck out for greener pastures in the past decade upon finding the commercial prospects of arthouse cinema distribution increasingly deficient\, Tsai has dabbled in the gallery space\, the black box theater\, virtual reality and the independently run exhibition space as venues to both showcase his uncategorizable work and influence how he produces it. Along the way\, he has transformed his very approach to capturing filmic material\, and where once a pithy precis for his films existed—Antonioni-esque studies of alienated Taiwanese youth\, for instance—there is no longer such a firm summary for exactly what a Tsai Ming-liang project looks like or how it operates.Tsai Ming-Liang and his collaborators will appear in person at film screenings on October 10 and 14.For more information on this series\, including a complete listing of showtimes and information on purchasing tickets\, visit https://harvardfilmarchive.org/programs/the-face-of-time-recent-films-by-tsai-ming-liang.  \n\n\n\nThis event is co-sponsored by the Harvard Film Archive and the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Urban China Series featuring Toby Lincoln -  Out of the Rubble of World War II: Reconstruction in China in Comparative Perspective
DESCRIPTION:zoom meeting link\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Toby Lincoln\, Associate Professor of Chinese Urban History\, Centre for Urban History\, University of Leicester.This paper explores urban reconstruction in China after WWII\, and argues that this was more successful than is normally thought\, especially when compared with other countries similarly devastated by war. With a particular focus on Changsha\, which probably suffered more destruction than any other city in China\, it highlights how reconstruction in the late 1940s laid the foundation for the Chinese Communist Party to consolidate its power after 1949. \n\n\n\nStudying postwar reconstruction frees modern Chinese history from the teleology of the Communist Revolution and the grand narrative of the Cold War. This opens the door to comparisons with Europe and other parts of the world\, where reconstruction has long taken centre stage. It continues the historical re-evaluation of the Nationalist regime\, casts the early years of Maoist China in a new light\, and opens up new lines of historical enquiry into the social and cultural legacies of war. Finally\, it is my contention that exploring how cities have faced disasters in the past has the potential to provide innovative solutions to contemporary issues. \n\n\n\nToby Lincoln is Associate Professor of Chinese Urban History at the Centre for Urban History\, University of Leicester. He is the author of several articles and two books\, the most recent of which is a summary of the history of Chinese cities entitled: An Urban History of China (Cambridge\, 2021). His current research\, funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council\, explores how Chinese cities were reconstructed after WWII. Aside from this\, he is also interested in questions of urban sustainability in the past and the present. \n\n\n\nZoom Meeting Link: https://harvard.zoom.us/j/96217779608 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue
