Jones, and scholar Karen Shimakawa Introduction by Alexandra Chang New York University, New York, ny, USA [email protected] “Remembering SlutForArt: Tseng Kwong Chi,” a conversation between artis- tic theatre directors and choreographers Muna Tseng, Bill T. Jones, and Ping Chong with scholar and adva us Area Editor Karen Shimakawa, took place on 1 May 2015 at nyu’s Cantor Film Center presented by the Asian/Pacific/ American Institute at New York University and the Grey Art Gallery in con- junction with the Grey’s exhibition Tseng Kwong Chi: Performing for the Camera, curated by Amy Brandt. Brandt, who sadly passed away just weeks after the opening, curated this first major travelling survey show of Tseng’s works, which ranged from candid shots of his immediate East Village circle of artistic creators and his little seen Moral Majority series depicting Right Wing politicians posing in front of a crumpled American flag, to his more well- known documentation of the 1983 Body Painting collaboration between Bill T. Jones and Keith Haring. The exhibition also featured Tseng’s popular East Meets West and The Expeditionary series, performance self-portrait series in which the artist posed as his alter ego, the Ambiguous Ambassador, in a Mao Suit and mirrored glasses in front of iconic landmarks in the us, Canada, and Europe. The artist, who died of aids in 1990, was part of the 1980s Mudd Club and Club 57 set with artists such as Ann Magnuson, Kenny Scharf, and Jean-Michel Basquiat and collaborated with Keith Haring, docu- menting the Pop artist’s work in the subways even before his international rise to fame.

  • Important Facts for Prelims (2Nd April 2019)
    Important Facts For Prelims (2nd April 2019) drishtiias.com/printpdf/important-facts-for-prelims-2nd-april-2019 Thakurani Jatra Festival Recently, celebrations of the biennial Thakurani Jatra festival started in Berhampur, Odisha. During the festival, Goddess Budhi Thakurani is taken from the main temple at Thakurani Temple Street to her temporary abode at Desi Behera Street, where she stays till the festival ends. The first Thakurani Yatra was celebrated in April 1779. The festival goes on for 32 days. The goddess is considered to be a family member of Desibehera, the leader of the Dera community, the weaver clan that has made Berhampur famous as the silk city. Reiwa: Japan's New Era The Japanese government has announced that the reign of the next Japanese emperor will be known as the "Reiwa" era. The term for the new era is made up of the two characters Rei and Wa. Rei can mean "commands" or "order", as well as "auspicious" or "good". While, Wa often means "harmony", and is also used in the Japanese word for "peace" - "hei-wa". The name draws from the 7th century poetry collection “Manyoshu.” This is the first era name to have been inspired by a Japanese, rather than Chinese, work of classical literature. The new era takes effect on May 1, 2019 with the coronation of Crown Prince Naruhito (126th emperor of the Chrysanthemum Throne). Chrysanthemum Throne is a common name given to the Imperial throne of Japan. It is the oldest continuing monarchy in the world. Under the provisions of the current Constitution of Japan, the Emperor is a "symbol of the state and the unity of its people"; he has no real political power but is regarded as a ceremonial Head of State and constitutional 1/2 monarch.

  • A Novel Idea: a Narrative Inquiry Into Queer Engagements with Fiction
    A Novel Idea: A Narrative Inquiry into Queer Engagements with Fiction By Jeffrey Daniel Lloyd A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Curriculum, Teaching, & Learning Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto © Copyright by Jeffrey Daniel Lloyd 2015 A Novel Idea: A Narrative Inquiry into Queer Engagements with Fiction Jeffrey Daniel Lloyd Doctor of Philosophy Ontario Institute for Studies in Education University of Toronto 2015 Abstract This thesis explores the role reading novels (textual or graphic) played in the survival and desires of LGBTQ (lesbian, gay, bi, trans, queer) students. At the time this research project was conceived, there were not many psychoanalytic and queer feminist critical literacy research studies concerned with how LGBTQ students were using literacy in relation to self-care and trauma caused by anti-LGBTQ oppression. Also LGBTQ students were frequently being characterized in positivist anti-oppression research as one-dimensional victims who were not exercising any agency, while being told by lesbian and gay celebrities to tolerate unlivable conditions at their schools because a better life in a LGBTQ enclave awaits them. Disempowering research, the unlivable lives LGBTQ students are expected to endure in schools and the need for further queer feminist research into specifically queer and trans critical literacies served as the central motivations for the undertaking of this project. This research study focuses on the ways in which LGBTQ students have come to understand the relationships between reading novels, self-care, trauma, and the development of a queer critical literacy. Narrative inquiry, autoethnography, and creative analytic practices were the methodologies used in this project.
