Shanghai, China's Capital of Modernity
SHANGHAI, CHINA’S CAPITAL OF MODERNITY: THE PRODUCTION OF SPACE AND URBAN EXPERIENCE OF WORLD EXPO 2010 by GARY PUI FUNG WONG A thesis submitted to The University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOHPY School of Government and Society Department of Political Science and International Studies The University of Birmingham February 2014 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT This thesis examines Shanghai’s urbanisation by applying Henri Lefebvre’s theories of the production of space and everyday life. A review of Lefebvre’s theories indicates that each mode of production produces its own space. Capitalism is perpetuated by producing new space and commodifying everyday life. Applying Lefebvre’s regressive-progressive method as a methodological framework, this thesis periodises Shanghai’s history to the ‘semi-feudal, semi-colonial era’, ‘socialist reform era’ and ‘post-socialist reform era’. The Shanghai World Exposition 2010 was chosen as a case study to exemplify how urbanisation shaped urban experience. Empirical data was collected through semi-structured interviews. This thesis argues that Shanghai developed a ‘state-led/-participation mode of production’. -

Lissitzky returned to Russia in 1914, continuing his studies in Moscow where he attended the Riga Polytechnical Institute.

Introduction
Introduction The PRESSA opened its doors in Cologne on 12 May 1928. To this day, this international press exhibition, deemed by contemporaries to be the “world’s first look at the press” is unrivalled in size and importance. By the time the last ticket had been sold that October, more than five million visitors from Ger- many and around the world had taken in the facilities, halls and pavilions on the Deutzer banks of the Rhine, all of which had required an unprecedented degree of time and effort to build. They were able to admire the press exhibits and cultural presentations of the many participating nations (including the members of the League of Nations), attend the exhibition’s many informative and entertaining events and see the numerous tourist attractions in and around the host city and along the Rhine. Despite its contemporary and media-historical significance, the PRESSA has, in retrospect, hardly been studied. One might even say that it has been for- gotten. On the occasion of the 80th anniversary of its inauguration, an interna- tional interdisciplinary conference was therefore organised by the Centre for European and International Studies Research at the University of Portsmouth, the Institute of “Deutsche Presseforschung” at the University of Bremen and the Bremen Society for German Press Research in order to come to terms with the PRESSA’s significance. Along with presentations on the preparation and implementation of the exhibition and its political and artistic implications, the conference also dealt with the appearance of the German-Jewish press at the PRESSA. For the first time this press had the chance to present itself, in its own pavilion no less, as part of the general press to a wider public. -

A chanson des vieux amants? Belgium and the world’s fairs dr. Rika Devos Department of Architecture & Urban Planning, Ghent University St.-Lucas, Department of Architecture, Wenk World’s fair architecture: a setting for discussion World’s fairs would have lost their meaning in today’s mediatised global village: in 2010, this is old news, as world’s fairs, by their very existence, continue to deliver proof of the will to show, to (re)consider, nothing less than the world. Printed press, live satellite television, Internet, YouTube and Skype, multinational corporations, free travel, changed concepts of the nation and international relations, Europe without borders: all these eye and mind openers have not, as was suggested by many in the 1990ies, drained the sense and purpose from world’s fairs. Ever since the first post-war world’s fair – Expo 58, held in Brussels – organisers have publically questioned the use of their events, as from the 1950s onwards, evolutions in science, (tele)communications and transportation theoretically made the world accessible to all. But world’s fairs offer a specific view of the world, bound by place, time and the exhibition’s theme, which give order and sense to the gathering. Indeed, one of the criteria used by the BIE1 to grant a city the right to organise a world’s fair is the choice and elaboration of a relevant theme. Such a theme – in case of Shanghai 2010 ‘Better City, Better Life’ – has to set the goals for the fair, give sense to the efforts of the participants, provide an opportunity to differentiate from others and unite all in a conceptual way. -

Lusophone Journal of Cultural Studies / Revista Lusófona De Estudos Culturais
Revista Lusófona de Estudos Culturais / Lusophone Journal of Cultural Studies, vol. 7, n. 2, 2020, pp. 73-91 https://doi.org/10.21814/rlec.2628 Objectification of the Chopi music in the “First Portuguese Colonial Exhibition” (Porto, 1934) Eduardo Adolfo Lichuge Departamento de Artes, Escola de Comunicação e Artes, Universidade Eduardo Mondlane, Mozambique / Departamento de Comunicação e Arte, Instituto de Etnomusicologia e de Estudos de Música e Dança, Universidade de Aveiro, Portugal Abstract The cultural objectification process is selective, as it implies the recontextualization of certain cultural objects in a different context than the one that generated them, attributing them new significance and meanings (Handler, 1984, p. 62). During the First Portuguese Colonial Exhibition (Porto, 1934), this attitude was related to the discourse of invention of the “other”, where the relations between societies are governed by certain hierarchies. Mudimbe (2013, pp. 15-16) designates them as settlers, those who establish a region and dictate the rules; the colo- nizers, those who explore a territory under the control of the local majority, with a tendency to organize and transform non-European zones into fundamentally European constructions. At the end of this hierarchy, I would add the colonized, that is, those who obey. In the context of the colonial exhibition in Porto (1934), the Chopi music was recontextualized, and new meanings and significance were attributed, becoming a symbol of Portuguese national identity. Therefore, the Chopi music during the colonial exhibition of Porto was transformed into practices of surrender and submission of Mozambican communities, and its meanings and significance were reduced in acts of folk representation through Western performance models and the imposition of the respective aesthetic and moral models, including vertical communication from top to bottom. -
Herbert Bayer's Exhibition Catalogue for the 1930 Section Allemande
$UFKLWHFWXUDO Miller, W 2017 Points of View: Herbert Bayer’s Exhibition Catalogue for the 1930 Section Allemande. Architectural Histories, 5(1): 1, +LVWRULHV pp. 1–22, DOI: https://doi.org/10.5334/ah.221 RESEARCH ARTICLE Points of View: Herbert Bayer’s Exhibition Catalogue for the 1930 Section Allemande Wallis Miller Sigfried Giedion called Herbert Bayer’s exhibition catalogue for the 1930 Section Allemande a “minor typographical masterpiece.” Like similar catalogues, it is inexpensive, provides an inventory list, has an introduction, functions as a guide, and is illustrated. However, the majority of its images are of instal- lations, not their contents. Bayer accommodates the catalogue type for applied arts exhibitions by list- ing installations as objects, but he confronts the type by showing installations as display contexts that establish points of view, emulating, idealizing and interpreting the experience of the exhibition. By inde- pendently constructing ways of seeing and understanding the exhibition, the catalogue resists being an appendage to the exhibition, despite their close relationship. Giedion may have viewed Bayer’s catalogue as an important but secondary work of graphic design, but this article argues that it is of primary signifi- cance as an exhibition catalogue, an unusual essay on the book typology that is conscious of its history while moving outside — to other types of book design and to exhibitions — to transform it. Introduction In the summer of 1930, crowds filled Paris’s Grand Palais to capacity. The people were heading to the Section Alle- mande (German Section), the German Werkbund’s exhibi- tion at the annual Salon of the Société des Artistes Déco- rateurs (Society of Decorative Artists).
