Closed on public holidays. Venue Osage Hong Kong 4F, 20 Hing Yip Street, Kwun Tong, Hong Kong Curator Charles Merewether states, “[Li Xinping creates] elaborate scenes in which love and war seem inextricably tied to one another; a heightening of the senses, their destruction, their intoxication and celebration: figures and matter merge and separate and merge again – to make love, to make war – the union of bodies.” Following the presentation of In a Time of Love and War: Li Xinping in Shanghai, the exhibition will travel to Osage Hong Kong. In a Time of Love and War: Li Xinping traces the development of the artist’s career through the thread of sensuality and the notion of a warring and dialogue of forces. The exhibition showcases the dynamic, multilateral directions in Li’s art practice of more than a decade, featuring work from 2002 to 2014.

Freedman Member David Li Outside Member and Richard Linton Vice President for Research and Graduate Studies/Dean of the Graduate School Original approval signatures are on file with the University of Oregon Graduate School. Degree awarded June 2011 ii © 2011 Mei Yang iii DISSERTATION ABSTRACT Mei Yang Doctor of Philosophy Department of East Asian Languages and Literatures June 2011 Title: Cinematic Realism and Independent Filmmaking in China Approved: _______________________________________________ Dr. Alison M. Groppe Independent filmmaking in China, with the directors’ reiteration of literary and cinematic realism carried on from May Fourth, reflects the nation’s social uneasiness triggered by the enlarging division between the enlightenment indenture and the unidirectional modernization project. Resisting the national allegories and Hollywood-style big budget fantasies made by the Fifth Generation, independent filmmakers bring back to the screen the unadorned life of city inhabitants. The meaning of “independent” and “alternative” does not exclusively lie in the production and distribution venues but is galvanized by film directors’ perception and cinematic depiction of what constitutes the social realities of contemporary China.

  • LC Paper No. CB(4)985/14-15(01)
    LC Paper No. CB(4)985/14-15(01) Free TV licence of TVB renewed 1 / 2 Free TV licence of TVB renewed ****************************** The Government today (May 12) announced that the Chief Executive in Council has approved the application for renewal of the domestic free television programme service (free TV) licence of Television Broadcasts Limited (TVB) for a period of 12 years from December 1, 2015, to November 30, 2027. TVB has committed to a six-year investment plan of $6,336 million for 2016 to 2021, comprising $144 million of capital investment and $6,192 million of programming investment. It has also undertaken that each year at least 12,000 hours of the programmes on its service (representing about 27.4 per cent of its total programmes) will be local productions. "The licence conditions in the renewed licence of TVB are largely based on its existing licence, with additional requirements imposed to address public calls for improvements in its programming variety and quality," a spokesman for the Commerce and Economic Development Bureau said. TVB is required to provide an additional four hours per week of positive programmes in total on its digital channels, which are currently exempted from such a programming requirement. These include current affairs programmes, documentaries, arts and culture programmes and programmes for young persons. All must be first-run programmes with 60 minutes per week for each genre. "Furthermore, to respond to public aspirations and to facilitate the Government's policy of nurturing local talents, TVB has been required to provide on its licensed service independent local productions on an incremental basis from 20 hours per year in 2016 to 60 hours per year by 2020," the spokesman said.
