SUMMARY:Harvard CAMLab Fall Public Visits
DESCRIPTION:reserve a tour\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDuring Public Visits\, CAMLab welcomes our audiences to explore immersive installations that stage cultural history with digital technologies. \n\n\n\nCAMLab Cave Public Visits are guided group tours. Reservations are limited to 15 per hour\, in order to preserve the experiential dimension of CAMLab’s multisensorial project installations. Tours are led by a team of Harvard Student Educators\, hailing from graduate programs across the university as well as Harvard College. \n\n\n\nCurrently installed in CAMLab Cave\, the Cave Dance and Embodied Architecture projects activate the narrative\, cultural\, and sensorial potentials of interpreting historical data. \n\n\n\nCave Dance integrates thousands of depictions of dance from Dunhuang with motion capture of trained dancers\, who performed movements preserved by textual records. With this human-computer collaborative choreography as its foundation\, the Cave Dance installation instantiates movement sequences within ethereal motifs and enacts the “bodiless body\,” a state of transcendence epitomized by celestial dancers at Dunhuang. \n\n\n\nCombining photogrammetry with procedural generation and CGI\, Embodied Architecture presents the world’s most comprehensive 3D model of the Yingxian pagoda\, the world’s tallest timber structure. Serving as a stage for opening a cosmological understanding\, the installation progressively unfolds the multisensory experience that the pagoda embodies—elucidating the lens of ritual practice. \n\n\n\nAdvanced reservations are required\, and all are welcome. Tickets are pay-as-you-wish\, with $10.00 suggested for non-Harvard visitors. Proceeds directly support CAMLab’s future research and projects. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVenue

SUMMARY:Exhibition - Treasures of the Za Library
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition in the first floor lounge of CGIS South features a selection of treasured items from the collection of the Za Library (Zashuguan 雜書館) and from the Harvard-Yenching Library. The Za Library is the biggest privately-owned library in mainland China that is open to the public. The Harvard librarians have also made available a small selection from the vast collection of the Harvard-Yenching Library as an accompaniment and complement of the Za Library materials on display. There are Tang manuscript copies\, Song printed editions\, Liao and Xixia printed sutras (in Chinese and Tangut)\, Ming and Qing clan lineages and local gazetteers\, autographs by prominent late Qing and early Republican personages\, and a large trove of popular materials from the late nineteenth through early twentieth century. The joint exhibition is designed to give the audience a taste of these two excellent library collections and to prompt us to reflect on the nature and significance of archival and private collecting in modern China. \nWith thanks to Xiaofei Tian\, Wilt Idema\, Gao Xiaosong\, Xiaohe Ma\, Sharon Yang\, Michael Szonyi\, Daniel Murphy\, and Marian Lee. Curated by James Evans\, Xiao Ge\, and Annie Wang.

SUMMARY:Exhibition Reception - Calligraphy • China Gene : Ronghua Jing
DESCRIPTION:“One brush reveals all” is the secret of calligraphy and the key of decoding aesthetics of traditional Chinese art. This exhibition consists of ten calligraphies and ten Chinese paintings\, including Chinese landscape paintings and Chinese bird paintings. The connotation of Twin Ten\, 十全十美 (Ten in Whole\, Ten in Beauty) implies perfection in Chinese culture. In the art of calligraphies\, it tells a calligrapher’s life story\, calligraphy note\, and the journey of calligraphy study and practice. \nRonghua Jing selects several poetries of Tang Dynasty poets\, including his favorite\, Dufu (杜甫) \, and shows his friendship with Reedstone. In the art of Chinese landscape paintings\, Professor Jing expresses his love for nature and China\, especially Changjiang River and Yellow Mountain. As an erudite history professor\, he has insight on the philosophy of Yin-Yang and which he creates through brush pen.

SUMMARY:Exhibition Opening - Eye Eye Nose Mouth: Art\, Disability\, and Mental Illness in Nanjing\, China and Shiga-ken\, Japan
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition at the Harvard University Asia Center explores the intersections of art\, disability\, and mental health by displaying original works on paper and sculptures\ncreated by ten groundbreaking\, self-taught artists from China and Japan. Their compelling\, formally innovative works come in a wide range of styles and media\, from gestural abstractions to proliferating figurations\, from meticulous clay obelisks to eye-popping wall paintings. \nThe first exhibition of works produced in art workshops for people with disabilities ever to take place at Harvard (and only the second devoted to self-taught artists since the Harvard Society for Contemporary Art’s Exhibition of American Folk Paintings in 1930)\, “Eye Eye Nose Mouth” offers an original contribution to an ongoing conversation about mental health and the acceptance of mental disability and mental illness in both local and international contexts. \nThe curators conducted on-the-ground research at Nanjing Outsider Art Studio in China and Atelier Yamanami in Japan\, in order to witness the practices of the artists\, and to carefully contextualize the works within their specific sociocultural conditions of production. As the curators observed the inner workings of these art therapy workshops\, they documented the daily rhythms and artistic processes of the artists on video\, which form a tapestry of moving-image portraits to accompany the works in the exhibition. \nThe title of the exhibition is an homage to the work of Hideaki Yoshikawa\, who has been creating numerous series of works bearing the title “Eye Eye Nose Mouth” (目目鼻口\, pronounced me-me-hana-kuchi) at Atelier Yamanami over several decades. His drawings and clay sculptures\, combining obsessive seriality and formal inventiveness\, are exemplary of the quality of the works produced at Atelier Yamanami and Nanjing Outsider Art Studio\, but also of the most salient common feature of both workshops. \nThe two workshops belong to distinct sociocultural contexts at different stages of their respective histories: the former was founded in 1986\, while the latter\, founded in 2006\, is a comparatively smaller structure. However\, staff members of both workshops make it a point to never intervene directly in the creative process\, providing care\, support\, and art materials while leaving artists at total liberty to experiment and develop their own artistic practices at their own pace. The works displayed in this exhibition offer a glimpse of the results yielded by these deliberate strategies of tolerance and empowerment. \nMental illness and mental disability are particularly complex issues in both China and Japan\, due to prevalent social stigma\, and\, in the case of mainland China\, a relative lack of state-supported care facilities. In this regard\, both workshops constitute attempts to heighten public awareness of these issues\, and to improve the symbolic image and concrete living conditions of affected persons in their respective societies. While insisting on the specificity of each workshop’s particular context\, the exhibition avoids a rigid juxtaposition or comparison\, encouraging the viewer to instead find formal and thematic echoes across the works.

SUMMARY:Those Waters Giving Way
DESCRIPTION:An overview of Michael Cherney’s artistic process and recent works. The art combines photography with the subject matter\, aesthetics\, materials and formats traditionally associated with classical Chinese painting\, which allows for viewing the present day environment and landscape in China through the lens of art history. In addition to the presentation\, the artist will guide the audience through viewing several handscrolls\, albums and other works \n“One would be hard-pressed to find a ‘more Chinese’ artist than Qiu Mai (Michael Cherney). Photographer\, calligrapher\, and book artist\, Qiu Mai’s work is done with the great sophistication that draws on the subtleties of China’s most scholarly and esoteric traditions. Based in Beijing and a successful artist whose works have been collected by The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Department of Asian Art (the first photographic works ever to enter the collection of that department)\, Qiu Mai’s art is less provocative than it is intellectually engaging\, meditative\, and often simply beautiful.  What is provocative is his identity:  Qiu Mai is the Chinese name for Michael Cherney\, born in New York of Jewish parentage. Cherney’s work is the cutting-edge demonstration of artistic globalization:  if Asian artists can so readily ‘come West\,’ then what is to prevent large numbers of future Western artists from ‘going Asian’? Or\, like Qiu Mai/Michael Cherney\, going both ways at once\, both American and Chinese\, modern and traditional.”\n– Jerome Silbergeld\, P. Y. and Kinmay W. Tang Professor of Chinese Art History\, Princeton University \nCo-sponsored by the Harvard-China Project

SUMMARY:Lecture and Panel Discussion: Cultural Heritage and Ai Weiwei
DESCRIPTION:Using the historical legacy and artistic concepts of Ai Weiwei’sCircle of Animals/Zodiac Heads as a point of departure\, join The Greenway and the Arts & Business Council as they present a panel of experts that can guide us through current cultural heritage concerns and remedies. \nThe event will present specialists in the fields of heritage appropriation and repatriation; specifically\, the looting history in which Ai Weiwei based his monumental artworks; and for comparison in the United States\, remedy in the form of federal law for museum collections which enables the repatriation  of Native American cultural items. \nThe event will feature short lectured presentations on these topics\, and will conclude with a moderated panel discussion followed by audience Q&A. Please join us to learn more about this important topic. Small reception to follow. \nAbout Ai Weiwei’s Circle of Animals/Zodiac Heads: \nDesigned in the 18th century by two European Jesuits serving in the court of the Qing dynasty Emperor Qianlong\, the twelve zodiac animal heads originally functioned as a water clock-fountain\, which was sited in the magnificent European-style gardens of the Yuanming Yuan. In 1860\, the Yuanming Yuan was ransacked by French and British troops\, and the heads were pillaged. In re-interpreting these objects on an oversized scale\, Ai Weiwei focuses attention on questions of looting and repatriation\, while extending his ongoing exploration of the ‘fake’ and the copy in relation to the original.  Ai Weiwei’s work reveals layers of history while bringing attention to current economic\, political and collecting issues. \nSpeakers: \nLILLIAN M. LI\, Sara Lawrence Lightfoot Professor Emerita of History and Senior Research Scholar at Swarthmore College \nLillian M. Li\, a historian of China\, was trained at Harvard University under John King Fairbank\, and served on the faculty of Swarthmore College until 2012. Her scholarly work focused on economic history and culminated with the publication ofFighting Famine in North China: State\, Market\, and Environmental Decline\, 1690s-1990s (Stanford University Press\, 2007). Urban history and visual culture have been her recent interests. She co-authored Beijing: from Imperial Capital to Olympic City (Palgrave Macmillan\, 2007 and 2008)\, as well as an article “Building and Visualizing Cities: China\, Europe\, and the Islamic World\, 1400-1800” in Urban Life in China\, 15th-20th centuries (École francaise d’Extrême-Orient\, 2016). She has also written “The Garden of Perfect Brightness\,” a three-part visual essay on the Yuanmingyuan\, for MIT Visualizing Cultures\, Open Courseware\, and has lectured about the historic significance of this site and the recent controversies about the repatriation of its iconic zodiac animal heads. \nPATRICIA (TRISH) CAPONE\, Museum Curator and Director of Research and Repatriation\, Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology\, Harvard University \nPatricia Capone (Ph.D.\, Harvard University) joined the staff of the Peabody Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology in 1995.  As Curator and Director of Research and Repatriation\, Patricia focuses on museum anthropology\, North American historical archaeology\, repatriation and collaborative methodologies.  As Lecturer in the Department of Anthropology\, Harvard University\, she co-directs the Harvard Yard Archaeology Project with Dr. Diana Loren. She also currently serves as President of the Council of Museum Anthropology within the American Anthropological Association. Her recent article “Amending Wonder: Museums and Twenty Years of the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act” (2013)\, is an example of her work as part of the Peabody Museum’s leadership in considering museums’ history and modern scholarly and public partnerships. \nModerator: \nMEGAN LOW is the Director of Services for the Arts & Business Council\, where she oversees the Volunteer Lawyers for the Arts program.  Megan is a graduate of Boston College Law School and holds a bachelor’s degree in Art History from Harvard University.
