The ADC is a highly focused policy development and funding agency, providing grants to arts organisations and artists. The ADC also develops and improves the participation and education in, and the knowledge, practice, appreciation, accessibility and informed criticism of the arts, with a view to improving quality of life for the whole community. The ADC lays great emphasis on the role played by arts education in achieving these aims. The vision of the Hong Kong Arts Development Council is for a dynamic and diverse arts scene in Hong Kong. Chairman’s Foreword Hong Kong’s cultural scene has been buffeted by winds of change: the dissolution of the municipal councils, the establishment of the Culture and Heritage Commission, the decision to corporatise three major performing companies, all , in a climate of economic austerity, Mr Vincent Chow ong Arts Chairman of the Hong K everything under pressure to Development Council ‘enhance productivity’. I think in the past year the Hong Kong Arts Development Council has succeeded in strengthening its own structure, preparing itself for the new environment. We devised a better way of dealing with grants. Council Members recognise that their duty lies in making sure the system works fairly and efficiently, not in dealing with each and every application in its minutiae. We have not relegated our responsibility, rather, we elevated it to a higher level. This system conserves Members’ time and energy, it also removes personalities and relationships from the procedure of assessment, and it cultivates a large pool of expertise in the ADC. Our Committee structure has been modified to ensure better co-ordination between art forms, to have more consistent procedures and standards, more flexible and focused utilisation of resources. The two structural alterations addressed the ADC’s dual roles, that of a funding agency and that of a developmental council. There are two issues which the ADC’s structural changes cannot tackle. One is public attitude towards public funding for the arts. My particular concern is of those that dismiss it as a handout, and the others who believe it is of their personal right. The former camp misses the importance of arts and culture in enhancing the quality of life and the quality of the 2 Hong Kong Arts Development Council people. The latter is arrogant and self-serving. Neither does the cause of the arts any good. The other is that the ADC may not be the most suitable body to make decisions on cultural exchange. In its broadest sense, cultural exchange often has an element of state diplomacy in it. The choice of ‘cultural ambassadors’ is not necessarily made solely on artistic grounds. To ask the ADC to provide funding without it having had the opportunity to give due consideration of the applicants’ qualifications is tantamount to making it flout its own policy. The ADC may be able to provide artistic advice, but it should not be expected to make political allocations of its limited financial resources. High level cultural exchange, a most useful tool, should be taken up by Government as part and parcel of its external-relations programme. If the Chief Executive wants Hong Kong to be known as a metropolis with culture, his government must be ready, willing and able to wield this tool. On behalf of the ADC, I would like to thank members of the public, the arts community and government officials for their concern and support, and their criticism as well. I would also like to mention the Council’s dedicated and hard working staff, without whose effort much less would have been done. Personally, as my service in the ADC draws to a close, I wish to express my gratitude to everyone for what has been a most exhilarating and enriching experience to me.

  • Creative Arts Space in Hong Kong: Three Tales Through the Lens of Cultural Capital
    c Creative Arts Space in Hong Kong: Three Tales through the lens of Cultural Capital Hoi Ling Anne CHAN (0000-0002-8356-8069) A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy In Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning University of Melbourne February 2019 [Intended to leave blank] i Abstract The fact that culture and creativity are often instrumentalised in urban regeneration and/or development points to a pragmatic relationship between culture and the city. Hong Kong, like many post-colonial and post-industrial cities, faced challenges in economic restructuring and in the search of a new identity. Thus, culture came to the centre of the stage in the formulation of development strategies and started to accumulate cultural assets. The accumulation of cultural assets led to the emergence of various forms of cultural assets such as cultural district, infrastructure, projects in order to achieve various aims. However, most of the existing research focused on large-scale flagship projects from an economic or strategic perspective. A holistic understanding of those cultural projects is limited in the literature especially for the small-scale cultural projects. This research examines how the creative arts spaces interact with the host city, Hong Kong through the lens of cultural capital. Three creative arts spaces with different management models are chosen as case studies. Data were collected through field investigation and key informant interviews as well as from secondary sources such as archives and media. The data collected are analysed by executing thematic analysis procedures. The findings reveal that creative arts spaces are different from large-scale flagship projects in their relations to cities.

Inasmuch as Taiwanese Opera and Hand Puppetry are two of the most significant manifestations among others, research methods of qualitative interviews and non-participant observations will be used to gain an insight into their practices through investigating certain practitioners. This study will in particular explore organisational management and training approaches that ensure their artistry and skills are transmitted, contributing to the dissemination of intangible heritage. Furthermore, this study will inspect how the competent authorities determine the designation and registration of intangible heritage. Governmental schemes and their implementation for the safeguarding intangible heritage will be thoroughly examined, revealing the integrity and effectiveness of administrative systems, especially as the competent authorities are confronted by certain problems in the interpretation of intangible heritage, interaction with practitioners and controversy.

Although the status of the art and performers has been long controversial, the most significant factor that determines the destiny of traditional Chinese opera is actually the vitality of its market. My thesis seeks to tackle the role of market and audience participation in different stages of the development of Peking Opera, delineating the tripartite relationship between political interference, audience participation, and technological development. Within Henry Jenkins’ theoretical framework of media convergence, I investigate collective intelligence, participatory culture, and contemporary fan culture vis-à-vis digital media that has been contextualized in traditional Chinese opera and its economic impact.

    JIAO, WEI, D.M.A. Chinese and Western Elements in Contemporary Chinese Composer Zhou Long’s Works for Solo Piano Mongolian Folk-Tune Variations, Wu Kui, and Pianogongs. (2014) Directed by Dr. Andrew Willis. 136 pp. Zhou Long is a Chinese American composer who strives to combine traditional Chinese musical techniques with modern Western compositional ideas. His three piano pieces, Mongolian Folk Tune Variations, Wu Kui, and Pianogongs each display his synthesis of Eastern and Western techniques. A brief cultural, social and political review of China throughout Zhou Long’s upbringing will provide readers with a historical perspective on the influence of Chinese culture on his works. Study of Mongolian Folk Tune Variations will reveal the composers early attempts at Western structure and harmonic ideas. Wu Kui provides evidence of the composer’s desire to integrate Chinese cultural ideas with modern and dissonant harmony. Finally, the analysis of Pianogongs will provide historical context to the use of traditional Chinese percussion instruments and his integration of these instruments with the piano. Zhou Long comes from an important generation of Chinese composers including, Chen Yi and Tan Dun, that were able to leave China achieve great success with the combination of Eastern and Western ideas. This study will deepen the readers’ understanding of the Chinese cultural influences in Zhou Long’s piano compositions.

One of the treasures of the UCSD Modern Chinese History program is Dr. Ye Wa, who goes above and beyond in helping us sort through historical documents. She first pointed out Li Huiniang to me, and everything flowed from that critical moment. Her generosity in sharing her time and knowledge has been unmatched, and I will sorely miss her keen insights and good humor.
