  • Spectacle, Speculation, and the Hyperspace of Sovereignty
    8 Hyperbuilding: Spectacle, Speculation, and the Hyperspace of Sovereignty Aihwa Ong The Chinese love the monumental ambition …. CCTV headquarters is an ambi- tious building. It was conceived at the same time that the design competition for Ground Zero took place – not in backward-looking US, but in the parallel universe of China. In communism, engineering has a high status, its laws resonating with Marxian wheels of history. Rem Koolhaas and OMA (2004: 129) Urban Spectacles The proliferation of metropolitan spectacles in Asia indexes a new cultural regime as major cities race to attain even more striking skylines. Beijing’s cluster of Olympic landmarks, Shanghai’s TV tower, Hong Kong’s forest of corporate towers, Singapore’s Marina Sands complex, and super-tall Burj Khalifa in Dubai are urban spectaculars that evoke the “technological sublime.” Frederic Jameson famously made the claim that the postmodern sublime has dissolved Marxian historical consciousness, but nowhere did he consider the role of architectural sublime in indexing a different kind of historical consciousness, one of national arrival on the global stage (Jameson 1991: 32–8). Despite the 2008–9 economic downturn, Shanghai’s urban transformation for the 2010 World Expo will exceed Beijing’s makeover for the 2008 Olympics.1 Spectacular architecture is often viewed as the handiwork of corporate capital in the colonization of urban markets. For instance, Anthony King and Abidin Kusno, writing about “On Be(ij)ing in the world,” argue that the rise of cutting-edge buildings in Beijing is an instantiation of postmodern globalization transforming the Chinese capital into a “transnational Worlding Cities: Asian Experiments and the Art of Being Global, First Edition.

  • Where Is the City? Excavating Modern Beijing and Shanghai in Textual and Visual Cultures
    REVIEW ESSAY Where Is the City? Excavating Modern Beijing and Shanghai in Textual and Visual Cultures Max D. Woodworth, Ohio State University William Schaefer. Shadow Modernism: Photography, Writing, and Space in Shanghai, 1925– 1937. Durham, NC: Duke University Press, 2017. 304 pp. $95 (cloth); $27 (paper/e-book). Weijie Song. Mapping Modern Beijing: Space, Emotion, Literary Topography. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2018. 320 pp. $74 (cloth). In recent years, it has become something of a cliché to note the radical changes in China’s cities. Everywhere, demolition and redevelopment have been ongoing seemingly for decades without any end in sight. Meanwhile, migrants from the countryside and small towns continue to venture to the metropolises in search of work and new lives, though they are all too frequently met with hostility from the city’s residents as well as various others keen at turns to exploit and expel them. As testified by Beijing’s recent campaign to purge migrant tenements and “brick up” mostly migrant- run businesses, Chinese cities often present a challenging terrain for newcomers. And yet, the draw of the city is as powerful as ever. Amid all this agonizing change and growth, it can be easy to overlook the continuity in China’s urban convulsions. The disorienting maelstrom of urban life that certainly characterizes this current moment and has inspired a surge in scholarly interest in Chinese cities and artistic experiments was also very much a defining feature of life a century ago. Indeed, given the political instability of that earlier moment—the fall of the Qing dynasty in 1911, the rise of the Republic, the spread of warlordism, the formation of communist insurgent groups, and encroaching European imperialism and Japanese militarism— the social shifts that played out in Chinese cities were perhaps even more troubling to those who Cross-Currents: East Asian History and Culture Review E-Journal No.

The Gallery of Ancient Relics (Guwu Chenliesuo) which was based on the Hall of Martial Valor (Wuying Dian) and Hall of Literary Glory (Wenhua Dian) was officially set up in February, 1924. However, as stipulated in the The Conditions of Preferential Treatment of The Qing Royal Family, all the private property of the Qing Court including the objects in the imperial residences of Rehe and Fengtian and the contents of the Forbidden City should be protected by the Government of The Republic of China. It has been tacitly admitted that the Qing Court was the original owner of the antiques. All the items that were back to the Forbidden City were checked before acceptance and endorsed by the imperial commissioners of The Interior Ministry that was closely linked with The Qing Court, which made it possible for the Qing Court Collected antiques to be purchased by the government in a peaceful way. But the government of the Republic of China could not afford the total objects at once because of financial shortage then, so it was agreed by both that the treasures were temporarily maintained in The Gallery of Ancient Relics (Guwu Chenliesuo) until they were fully paid for by the government of that time.

  • Revive the Spirit of the Forbidden City by VR Technology
    Revive the Spirit of the Forbidden City by VR Technology Su Yi VR section of Information Department, The Palace Museum, 4 Jingshan Qianjie Beijing 100009, China [email protected] Abstract. As the most famous heritage site of China, the Forbidden City not only represent masterpieces in the development imperial palace architecture, but also carry profound cultural information and evidence to the living traditions and the customs of Han and Manchu, which was considered as the spirit of the place. But today the historic and cultural information of the Forbidden City has lost a lot due to the deteriorated environment. In recent years, the excessive tourism with approximately 10 million visitors per year has obviously threatened the historic buildings and the landscape too. In order to preserving the site, people have to be kept away from some buildings, thus the true spirit of the place could not be understood well. This paper intent to introduce what we have done with virtual reality technology, discussing whether we could help people to access and understand the heritage sites much better by VR without any destruction. 1. What is the spirit of the Forbidden City? 1.1 THE SPIRIT COMES FROM THE NATURE In ancient China, there was a momentous conception called the “Harmony between the Heaven and Human”. It showed respect to the nature. People thought everything should be done in the light of the “Rules” of the nature. Therefore the imperial palace also built according to some “Rules” of the nature, reflecting the theory of “Harmony between the Heaven and Human”.
