SUMMARY:Film Screening: This Woman (這個女人)
DESCRIPTION:Purchase tickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDirected by Alan Zhang (China\, 2023\, 90 min.). Mandarin with English subtitles.  \n\n\n\nIn her striking debut feature\, filmmaker Alan Zhang explores the life of a 35-year-old woman who\, after losing her decade-long job during the COVID-19 pandemic\, returns to her hometown from Beijing. As she works to support herself\, her parents\, and her child\, she navigates intimate relationships and embarks on a profound journey of self-discovery. Deftly blurring the line between documentary and fiction\, This Woman delves into the role of women in contemporary Chinese society\, questioning the expectations imposed on them and their pursuit of freedom. Awarded the Special Jury Prize at Visions du Réel\, Zhang—a feminist activist\, artist\, and filmmaker—delivers a timely and courageous work that invites reflection and dialogue. \n\n\n\nWatch the trailer. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:The Role of Long-Duration Storage in Decarbonizing China's Power Sector
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Haiyang Jiang\, Postdoctoral Fellow\, Harvard-China Project \n\n\n\nThe increasing integration of renewable energy sources introduces significant long-term uncertainty to power systems\, creating challenges for maintaining energy balance over extended periods. Traditionally\, coal-fired generation has provided the flexibility needed to address these imbalances. However\, as coal-fired generation is phased out\, long-duration storage emerges as a promising solution to mitigate the risks of long-term imbalances in renewable-dominated power systems. This talk will explore the critical role of long-duration storage in advancing the decarbonization of China’s power sector. \n\n\n\nDr. Haiyang Jiang is a Postdoctoral Fellow with the Harvard-China Project at Harvard University. He earned his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Tsinghua University in 2023 and was a visiting student at the Harvard-China Project in 2022. His research focuses on power system modeling and planning\, long-duration energy storage\, and assessing long-term inadequacy risks in the power sector. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Exhibit: Dunhuang and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:reserve a ticket\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA major milestone and world-renowned heritage site within Silk Road networks\, Dunhuang preserves more than 400 embellished Buddhist cave shrines in present-day northwest China. \n\n\n\nDunhuang’s cave shrines date from the fifth to fourteenth centuries. Each encloses visitors within murals and carved figures that depict Buddhist legends and paradises. Chronicling innumerable exemplary works of Buddhist artmaking over centuries\, Dunhuang forms the largest encyclopedia art collection in situ. More significant than these artistic achievements\, the caves offer a glimpse into a universe that rests beyond our known physical reality. Much like the shadowy illusions of Plato’s allegorical cave\, the pictorial programs across Dunhuang’s caves reveal higher truths about life\, death\, and spiritual transcendence. \n\n\n\nThis fall\, CAMLab contextualizes Dunhuang within Buddhism’s broader currents of space- and art-making that surged across China during the medieval period.• Immersing visitors in confluences of light and sound\, the Cave Dance and Shadow Cave projects are case studies of two Dunhuang caves that reimagine the rich theatricality conjured by depictions of the dramas of the Buddha’s life and dances of transcendent beings. \n\n\n\n• Rebuilding the world’s tallest pagoda in VR\, the Embodied Architecture project invokes an 11the century transmission of these dynamics within the towering Shayka pagoda of the Fogang Monastery in present-day Yingxian\, China. There\, Buddhist pictorial motifs demarcate a journey of ascension toward enlightenment. \n\n\n\n• The Digital Temple project uses an interactive interface to unpack the multiplicity of compositions and multivalent topographies rendered across the murals of Kaihua monastery. \n\n\n\nBy examining Buddhism’s three primary contexts in medieval China—the cave\, the pagoda\, and the temple—these CAMLab projects reveal the dramatic perceptual experiences and invisible force fields embedded by visual programs within Buddhist sites.Reserve Your Ticket \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Conference: Reincarnation in Tibetan Buddhism and the Institution of the Dalai Lama
DESCRIPTION:Register now\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nReincarnation recognition began in the 13th century as a distinctive practice in Tibetan Buddhism to ensure continuity in spiritual authority across successive lives of religious masters. Over time such recognized reincarnations took on significant temporal power as well\, particularly the line of the Dalai Lamas who were instrumental in the formation of the Tibetan Ganden Phodrang government in the 17th century. This conference will look at the history across the region\, the esoteric practices of rebirth and divination\, and the modern-day geopolitical implications of the continuation of this practice in Tibetan\, Himalayan\, Mongolian\, and Central Asian communities — and indeed across the Buddhist world in Asia and beyond. \n\n\n\nDay 1: Thursday\, November 14\, 20244:00 p.m. – Opening and Introductions   Michael Puett\, Harvard UniversityJanet Gyatso\, Harvard University \n\n\n\n5:00 p.m.                    Reception \n\n\n\nDay 2: Friday\, November 15\, 2024 \n\n\n\n8:15 – 9:00 a.m.          Breakfast \n\n\n\n9:00 – 9:15 a.m.          Welcome \n\n\n\n9:15-11:15 a.m.         Panel 1: Reincarnation in Tibetan Buddhism and Beyond Moderator: Michael Szonyi\, Harvard UniversityPanelists:Weirong Shen\, Tsinghua UniversityBodhisattvas in Saṃsāra: The Avalokiteśvara Cult and the Reincarnation of Tibetan LamasTengyur Rinpoche\, Thubten Shedrubling Foundation  The History of Reincarnated Lamas in TibetTawni Tidwell\, University of Wisconsin–MadisonLife in Suspension with Death: Biocultural Ontologies\, Perceptual Cues\, and Biomarkers for the Tibetan Tukdam Postmortem Meditative State \n\n\n\nSangseraima Ujeed\, University of MichiganThe Ocean Lama: The Dalai Lamas of the Mongols \n\n\n\nNicole Willock\, Old Dominion University Authenticity and Authority: Methodological Pathways for Understanding the Tulku Institution \n\n\n\n11:15-11:30 a.m.         Break  \n\n\n\n11:30 a.m.-1:00 p.m. Panel 2: Ganden Phodrang\, Regents\, and Succession \n\n\n\nModerator: Janet Gyatso\, Harvard University  \n\n\n\nPanelists:Martin Mills\, University of AberdeenThe Ganden Podrang: Sovereignty and Succession Under the Dalai Lamas \n\n\n\nCameron Warner\, Aarhus UniversityTibet’s Regents: A Historical Overview of the Men Tasked with Finding the Dalai Lama \n\n\n\nHon-Shiang Lau\, City University of Hong KongChinese Primary-Source Official Records on Using a Golden Urn to Identify a New Dalai Lama \n\n\n\n1:00-2:00 p.m.            Lunch  \n\n\n\n2:00-3:30 p.m.           Panel 3: The Present Dalai Lama and GeopoliticsModerator: William Kirby\, Harvard University \n\n\n\nPanelists: Jigme Yeshi\, University of CalcuttaCompassion in Praxis – The Life and Legacy of the 14th Dalai Lama \n\n\n\nAllen Carlson\, Cornell UniversityWho’s Next (And Why It Matters So): Reincarnates (Especially the Dalai Lama Lineage\, Particularly the 14th\, Tenzin Gyatso) and the Coming Crisis in Tibet-China Relations \n\n\n\nTenzin Dorjee\, Columbia UniversityBeijing’s Reincarnation Games: Why the Chinese Communist Party Wants the Dalai Lama to be Reborn \n\n\n\n3:30-3:45 p.m.            Break  \n\n\n\n3:45-5:15 p.m.            Panel 4: Buddhist World in Asia and BeyondModerator: Michael Puett\, Harvard University \n\n\n\nPanelists:Lobsang Sangay\, Harvard UniversityCo-opting the Sacred: The Intersection of Atheist Governance and Tibetan Buddhist Spiritual Authority \n\n\n\nJosh Rogin\, The Washington PostProspects of US Tibet Policy in the Next Administration \n\n\n\nDibyesh Anand\, University of WestminsterCompeting Notions of Sovereignty: Tibet\, China\, and the Politicizing of Reincarnation \n\n\n\n5:15-5:30 p.m.            Conclusion \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Exhibit: Dunhuang and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:reserve a ticket\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA major milestone and world-renowned heritage site within Silk Road networks\, Dunhuang preserves more than 400 embellished Buddhist cave shrines in present-day northwest China. \n\n\n\nDunhuang’s cave shrines date from the fifth to fourteenth centuries. Each encloses visitors within murals and carved figures that depict Buddhist legends and paradises. Chronicling innumerable exemplary works of Buddhist artmaking over centuries\, Dunhuang forms the largest encyclopedia art collection in situ. More significant than these artistic achievements\, the caves offer a glimpse into a universe that rests beyond our known physical reality. Much like the shadowy illusions of Plato’s allegorical cave\, the pictorial programs across Dunhuang’s caves reveal higher truths about life\, death\, and spiritual transcendence. \n\n\n\nThis fall\, CAMLab contextualizes Dunhuang within Buddhism’s broader currents of space- and art-making that surged across China during the medieval period.• Immersing visitors in confluences of light and sound\, the Cave Dance and Shadow Cave projects are case studies of two Dunhuang caves that reimagine the rich theatricality conjured by depictions of the dramas of the Buddha’s life and dances of transcendent beings. \n\n\n\n• Rebuilding the world’s tallest pagoda in VR\, the Embodied Architecture project invokes an 11the century transmission of these dynamics within the towering Shayka pagoda of the Fogang Monastery in present-day Yingxian\, China. There\, Buddhist pictorial motifs demarcate a journey of ascension toward enlightenment. \n\n\n\n• The Digital Temple project uses an interactive interface to unpack the multiplicity of compositions and multivalent topographies rendered across the murals of Kaihua monastery. \n\n\n\nBy examining Buddhism’s three primary contexts in medieval China—the cave\, the pagoda\, and the temple—these CAMLab projects reveal the dramatic perceptual experiences and invisible force fields embedded by visual programs within Buddhist sites.Reserve Your Ticket \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Exhibit: Dunhuang and Beyond
DESCRIPTION:reserve a ticket\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nA major milestone and world-renowned heritage site within Silk Road networks\, Dunhuang preserves more than 400 embellished Buddhist cave shrines in present-day northwest China. \n\n\n\nDunhuang’s cave shrines date from the fifth to fourteenth centuries. Each encloses visitors within murals and carved figures that depict Buddhist legends and paradises. Chronicling innumerable exemplary works of Buddhist artmaking over centuries\, Dunhuang forms the largest encyclopedia art collection in situ. More significant than these artistic achievements\, the caves offer a glimpse into a universe that rests beyond our known physical reality. Much like the shadowy illusions of Plato’s allegorical cave\, the pictorial programs across Dunhuang’s caves reveal higher truths about life\, death\, and spiritual transcendence. \n\n\n\nThis fall\, CAMLab contextualizes Dunhuang within Buddhism’s broader currents of space- and art-making that surged across China during the medieval period.• Immersing visitors in confluences of light and sound\, the Cave Dance and Shadow Cave projects are case studies of two Dunhuang caves that reimagine the rich theatricality conjured by depictions of the dramas of the Buddha’s life and dances of transcendent beings. \n\n\n\n• Rebuilding the world’s tallest pagoda in VR\, the Embodied Architecture project invokes an 11the century transmission of these dynamics within the towering Shayka pagoda of the Fogang Monastery in present-day Yingxian\, China. There\, Buddhist pictorial motifs demarcate a journey of ascension toward enlightenment. \n\n\n\n• The Digital Temple project uses an interactive interface to unpack the multiplicity of compositions and multivalent topographies rendered across the murals of Kaihua monastery. \n\n\n\nBy examining Buddhism’s three primary contexts in medieval China—the cave\, the pagoda\, and the temple—these CAMLab projects reveal the dramatic perceptual experiences and invisible force fields embedded by visual programs within Buddhist sites.Reserve Your Ticket \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Susan Greenhalgh - Soda Science: Making the World Safe for Coca-Cola
DESCRIPTION:Register for hybrid zoom attendance\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSpeaker: Susan Greenhalgh\, John King and Wilma Cannon Fairbank Research Professor of Chinese Society Emerita\, Department of Anthropology\, Harvard UniversityModerator: Nicole West Bassoff\, PhD Candidate in Public Policy\, Harvard Kennedy School \n\n\n\nThe 1990s were tough times for the soda industry. In the United States\, obesity rates were exploding. Public health critics pointed to sugary soda as a main culprit and advocated for soda taxes that might decrease the consumption of sweetened beverages—and threaten the revenues of the giant soda companies. In her new book\, Soda Science\, Greenhalgh tells the story of how\, during 1995-2015\, industry leader Coca-Cola mobilized allies in academia to create a soda-defense science that would protect profits by advocating exercise\, not dietary restraint\, as the priority solution to obesity\, a view few experts accept. Anthropologist and science studies specialist Susan Greenhalgh discovers a hidden world of science-making—with distinctive organizations\, social networks\, knowledge-making practices\, and ethical claims—dedicated to creating industry-friendly science and keeping it under wraps. Coke’s research isn’t fake science\, she argues; it was real science\, conducted by real and eminent scientists\, but distorted by its aim. By tracing the birth\, maturation\, death\, and effects of this global science project as it spread in two sites – the U.S. and China – Soda Science reveals the cunning ways giant corporations come to shape our diets\, lifestyles\, and health to their own needs. \n\n\n\nNote: This is a science studies talk about Prof. Greenhalgh’s new book; a talk for China Studies scholars will be scheduled at a later date.Also via Zoom.

SUMMARY:Flying Flowers and Scattered Snow (飞花散雪): A Performance of Calligraphy by Wang Dongling
DESCRIPTION:Wang Dongling 王冬龄\, one of China’s most highly regarded contemporary ink painters\, will demonstrate his luan shu (“chaotic script”) calligraphy in a special event in the Calderwood Courtyard. In this energetic performance\, he will draw upon ancient texts and brush-painting traditions to create a large gestural work focused on the exalted West Lake poems of Su Dongpo (1037–1101). Located in Hangzhou\, West Lake has served as a source of inspiration for generations of poets\, scholars\, and artists\, including Wang. \n\n\n\nWang Dongling is professor of calligraphy and director of the Modern Calligraphy Research Center at the China Academy of Art\, Hangzhou. He has held three solo exhibitions at the National Art Museum of China\, and his work has been exhibited and acquired internationally. Like many artists of his generation\, Wang’s education was interrupted by the Cultural Revolution (1966–76)\, but working outside the constraints of conventional art schools granted him the freedom to explore novel techniques. He returned to his studies in the late 1970s\, incorporating foreign approaches into his work throughout the 1980s and 1990s. \n\n\n\nThe Harvard Art Museums offer free admission every day\, Tuesday through Sunday. Please see the museum visit page to learn about our general policies for visiting the museums. \n\n\n\nThis program is made possible in part through the support of Shining (Christina) Sun. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue
