Most of what he designed was for children’s playgrounds and included angular swing sets in primary colors, cubistic climbing blocks, and biomorphic landscaping. At the same time, a fair number of these projects, none of which were realized in full before the 970s, have an atavistic subtext, from references to monuments of the ancient world to almost protozoan biological structures. As if to suggest that to play like a child is to reincarnate the most archaic forms of human civilization and the most primordial forms of life on earth. The same conceit resonates strongly in Tower Snake (2009), the newest work by Huang Yong Ping. First exhibited at Gladstone Gallery in New York in the summer of 2009, Tower Snake can be seen as a kind of “play sculpture” that links interactive amusement to ultimately atavistic fantasies.

Oppenheim Jia Zhangke’s Shijie and China’s Changing Global Space by Mariana Estrada, B.A. Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts The University of Texas at Austin December 2009 Abstract Jia Zhangke’s Shijie and China’s Changing Global Space Mariana Estrada, M.A. The University of Texas at Austin, 2009 Supervisor: Chien-hsin Tsai This paper explores tourism and space-making in modern China through the lens of Sixth Generation Chinese filmmaker Jia Zhangke. His film Shijie (The World) features people whose lives play out in and around a Chinese theme park of the same name. Through its portrayal of theme parks and the social stratum who visit and inhabit them, Shijie depicts both the filmmaker‟s opinion of China‟s modernization project, as well as his evolving status within the Chinese international/national film system. As China‟s interest in its global image is being transformed through its media products, its concept of global and local space is also changing. The Olympic Village created for the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics can be seen as an attempt at physically and symbolically engineering China‟s new global space. This paper will consider Jia Zhangke, The World, and the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games as several points along a continuum that leads toward a new envisioning of global space in China.

  • Absences and Excesses in Cinematic Representations of Beijing
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE Absences and Excesses in Cinematic Representations of Beijing Yinghong Li “Reality is a mess in China”–Jia Zhangke Social reality of postsocialist China can only be described in polysemic terms bearing contradictory or at least conflicting connotations. The phantasmagoric na- ture and the immeasurable dimension of this historical condition make it an infinitely challenging object of study for anyone interested in any aspect of contem- porary China.1) The past three decades or so brought drastic changes to China that have fundamentally altered formations of the social structure and the individual’s position and function in this structure, forcing Chinese people to re-orient them- selves in the way they experience the world and interact with each other. The tri- umph of global capitalism at “the end of history” brings China an enormous explo- sion of energy with which the ordinary Chinese have marched forward toward accumulating greater amount of wealth and experiencing greater satisfactions of pleasure. It has also impacted essential moral, ethical standards and thinking hon- ored by conventional wisdom and habit, ushered in different sets of values, beliefs and practices, many of which are potentially more problematic than beneficial. In this paper I would like to examine postsocialist China from two important as- pects, namely the family in disintegration and the workings of the body politics that exploit the weak and encourage the return of many repressed desires of the previous regime. By using cinematic lens as a tool and Beijing as focus, this paper intends to ask pertinent questions regarding how the human subject struggles to re-define the meaning of moral agency and re-negotiate various power relations in order to make sense of a tumultuous and mundane interiority, and an equally devastating exterior formed in sharp contrast between polished, smooth industrial steel and concrete and pathetic, cast-away grey bricks.
