  • 5 China Dreaming
    5 China Dreaming Representing the Perfect Present, Anticipating the Rosy Future Stefan Landsberger Abstract As China has developed into a relatively well-offf, increasingly urbanized nation, educating the people has become more urgent than ever. Rais- ing (human) quality (素质) has become a major concern for educators and intellectuals who see moral education as a major task of the state. The visual exhortations in public spaces aimed at moral education are dominated by dreaming about a nation that has risen and needs to be taken seriously. The visualization of these dreams resembles commercial advertising, mixing elements like the Great Wall or the Tiananmen Gate building with modern or futuristic images. This chapter focuses on posters, looking at the changes in contents and representation of government visuals in an increasingly urbanized and media-literate society. Keywords: visual propaganda; governmentality; normative propaganda; Chinese Dream; Beijing Olympics 2008 Sometimes one still encounters hand-painted faded slogans in the coun- tryside urging those working in agriculture to learn from Dazhai, or to energetically study Mao Zedong Thought. By and large, political messages and the images they use have disappeared from Chinese public spaces, in particular in urban areas. Yet, the production of these images, of what we would call propaganda, has not stopped; the government remains com- mitted to educating the people, as it has over the millennia. Compared to the fijirst three decades of the People’s Republic, the messages have shifted to moral and normative topics, and their visualization has become much more sophisticated than in the earlier periods. This is partly because they Valjakka, Minna & Wang, Meiqin (eds.), Visual Arts, Representations and Interventions in Contemporary China: Urbanized Interface.

  • Facts About Women's Springboard Olympic Champions 17:20, August 17, 2008
    Facts about women's springboard Olympic champions 17:20, August 17, 2008 Beijing is to witness a tough battle for historic gold in women's 3m springboard on Sunday evening. Chinese overwhelming favorite Guo Jingjing is set to defend her Olympic title while setting the record as the first-ever to win back-to-back gold in both synchro and individual events. Here are some basic facts about winners of the event in previous five Olympics. -- Gao Min, springboard champion of the 1988 and 1992 Olympic Games. Nicknamed "Diving Queen", Gao is one of the most dominant divers in the history of the sport. Undefeated in world competitions on the 3m springboard between 1986 and 1992, she claimed Olympic titles in the 1988 Seoul and 1992 Barcelona Olympics. Born in September 1970 in China's Sichuan Province, Gao started swimming at four, and turned to diving at nine. She won her first major international competition on the 3m springboard in the World Championships in 1986. Gao tied the legendary Greg Louganis by receiving the most international awards on one springboard. The two-time Olympic champion is also the first female diver to surpass 600-points score in the event, and she did it three times. Gao was chosen as the World's Best Diver of the Year by the U.S. magazine Swimming World from 1987 to 1989 and the Woman's World Springboard Diver of the Year for a record seven consecutive years from 1986 to 1992. -- Fu Mingxia, 10m platform champion of 1992 Olympics, both 10m platform and 3m springboard winner in 1996 Atlanta Olympics, and springboard winner of Sydney Games.

  • Olympic Diva Guo to Compete in Chinese National Diving 19:26, September 20, 2007
    Olympic diva Guo to compete in Chinese national diving 19:26, September 20, 2007 Olympic champion diver Guo Jingjing will lead a group of elite to compete in the Chinese Diving Championships, which served as one of the Olympic trials, to be held in Yantai, Shandong province from Sept. 21-26. During the six-day meet, 14 events as in men's and women's 1 and 3 meters springboard, 10m platform and synchro as well as the all-around and team competition will be contest among 350 divers. As the grand slam winner at the World Cup, the World Championships and the Olympic Games, Guo has no exception to show up at the national championships. She just completed a hat-trick of gold double at the newly-invented World Series by winning both women's 3m springboard and synchro in three stops. Guo, 26, currently the eldest women athlete in the Chinese diving history, said: "I need to vie for the Olympic berth from every trail, by my own performance, not by my previous reputation." Guo will compete in her favorite springboard, where she will face the challenges from her Olympic synchro partner Wu Minxia, world champion Li Ting and newcomer He Zi. Absent from the national contests for nearly one year, Hu Jia and Peng Bo, the gold medalists in the men's 10m platform and springboard at the Athens Olympic Games, will stage a strong comeback at Yantai. Other Olympic champions, including women's 10m platform synchro winners Li Ting and Lao Lishi and world champions Qin Kai, Lin Yue and Huo Liang will also show up at the national trial.
