Guided by expert commentary from multiple disciplines\, our weekend of presentations and discussions will open up these works and their implications. \nKuroDalaiJee (a.k.a. Kuroda Raiji)’s groundbreaking and monumental tome\, Anarchy of the Body: Undercurrents of Performance in 1960s Japan\, is now available in English translation thanks to the Art Platform Japan project; our event\, featuring a keynote by the author\, is co-sponsored by their current institutional support\, the National Center for Art Research (NCAR). The availability of KuroDalaijee’s meticulous documentation and analysis of a wealth of ephemeral works will make this transformative work available to a broader community of art and performance scholars. After a keynote by KuroDalaiJee revisiting his conclusions\, we will have a panel featuring Judith Rodenbeck (UC Riverside)\, Rosemary Candelario (U Texas Austin)\, and Markus Nornes (U Michigan). \nArt and Street Politics in the Global 1960s: Yoshio Nakajima and the Global Avant-Garde brings together scholars from Japan\, Belgium\, Denmark and the US to address the work of this “Japanese artist from Sweden\,” in the words of Professor Tania Ørum. In ways that challenge our imaginings of the role\, place\, and possibilities of art\, Yoshio Nakajima’s storied career has traversed an astounding range of locations\, scenes\, and movements as well as media and performance modes. The paradox of Nakajima’s work is that\, despite its apparent exemplification of art’s potential to move and to transform\, it has largely fallen out of accounts in which its impact might have justifiably featured. Presentations by Bert Winther-Tamaki (UC Irvine) and Chris Nelson (UNC Chapel Hill) will open a panel with contributors Peter van der Meijden (U Copenhagen)\, Dr. Yoshiko Shimada (artist and researcher)\, and editor William Marotti. \nDr. Yoshiko Shimada’s Omae ga kimeru na!: Tōdai de ryūgakusei ga manabu “han-dōtoku” feminizumu kōgi is based on noted artist and researcher Shimada’s lectures at Tokyo University on postwar radical feminism and art. This work also informed her recent exhibition at Ota Fine Arts\, Tokyo\, and her attention to suppressed legacies of feminist resistance. Dr. Shimada’s Sunday keynote will be followed by commentary by Anne McKnight (UC Riverside). \nIn honor of the mammoth achievement of the translation of KuroDalaiJee’s monumental work\, we will also feature a panel discussing translation\, moderated by Michael Emmerich\, and featuring Claire Tanaka\, Andrew Maerkle\, Alice Ashiwa\, Yoshiko Shimada and Ken Shima along with the author himself. \nWe thank the Terasaki Center for Japanese Studies\, the Yanai Initiative\, the National Center for Art Research (NCAR)\, the UCLA Social Sciences\, Arts\, and Humanities Deans\, and especially the JAG member institutions for their generous support! \nRegister HERE: https://tinyurl.com/JAG-Centering \nHere is the schedule: \nMAY 25 \n9:30-10:00 AM coffee and settling in \n10:00  Centering the Margins welcome address (William Marotti) \n10:15-12:30 KuroDalaiJee’s Anarchy of the Body: Undercurrents of Performance Art in 1960s Japan \nKeynote Address by KuroDalaiJee (Kuroda Raiji) \nCommentary:\nMarkus Nornes\, University of Michigan \nJudith Rodenbeck\, University of California\, Riverside \nRosemary Candelario\, University of Texas\, Austin \n12:30-2:00 lunch (provided for panelists) \n2:00-4:15 Art and Street Politics in the 1960s: Yoshio Nakajima and the Global Avant-Garde \nCommentary:\nChris Nelson\, University of North Carolina \nBert Winther-Tamaki\, University of California\, Irvine \nCommentary and Roundtable with Contributors \nWilliam Marotti\, University of California\, Los Angeles (and editor) \nYoshiko Shimada\, artist and independent scholar \nPeter van der Meijden\, University of Copenhagen \n4:15-4:30 Break \n4:30-5:20 Breakout groups \n5:30-6:20 Discussion \n6:30 Dinner for all attendees \nMAY 26 \n9:30-10:00 AM coffee and settling in \n10:00 -10:05 Welcome back (William Marotti) \n10:10-12:20 Omae ga kimeru na!

As the title indicates\, the retreat is for intensive group discussion of well-formed works in progress\, that is\, substantial writings complete with appropriate scholarly apparatus etc. Once again we hope to have a balanced mix of graduate students and faculty for the event. As always\, the goal will be to “create an atmosphere of constructive support and interchange among the group” in furtherance of the work and our intellectual exchange (to borrow from Miriam Wattles’ words from the inaugural 2008 event). \nEach participant is responsible for reading\, in advance\, the writings of their fellow group members\, and being prepared to offer commentary. We typically have a couple groups of perhaps seven or eight members each. Participants take turns discussing each others’ work\, with each participant receiving approximately an hour of focused\, constructive commentary. This can be a transformative experience: the previous iterations of the experience were highly successful for the participants\, as attested to by the many subsequent publications and dissertation chapters. \nGraduate student participants will find this an invaluable chance to get helpful\, informed\, attentive commentary on your work from a broad variety of perspectives—as indeed will faculty participants. Our fifth annual event is funded by UCLA\, the Terasaki Center\, and our many supporting JAG institutions. Those selected to participate will have their stays paid for by JAG (including lodging and meals). I hope also to help students with travel expenses\, but can make no guarantees at this time (see below). Car pooling etc. is encouraged\, where possible.\nIn the case of participants who are non-members of JAG\, we expect to have an a la carte price of $600 including lodging and meals—but space may be limited. Contact me at your earliest convenience. \nQualifications: faculty and graduate student applicants from JAG member institutions\, JAG alumni\, and prospective members alike are welcome to apply. Individuals from prospective JAG institutions will have to self-fund ($600 for two nights stay\, all meals\, and facilities—contact me for details). To be considered\, please submit a one-paragraph summary\, and a current draft of the paper or chapter to be considered (gaps\, rough edges\, and outline portions are not a problem—participants can update their papers until May 24) to marotti@history.ucla.edu with “JAG retreat” in the subject line. I’m asking to receive your requests by April 22\, though early submissions are encouraged\, as are short messages of initial interest in advance of the application. I will let successful applicants know of their status shortly after the deadline. \nAccommodations: double and single occupancy rooms will be provided courtesy of JAG\, along with meals. We also hope to reimburse students for reasonable travel (contact me for details)\, but will ask for your help in arranging car pools etc. as possible to minimize costs. \nRough Schedule: people will arrive in the late afternoon of the 31st; we’ll have orientation and dinner that night\, and get organized into groups. The next day will be the intensive group sessions\, followed by a final morning get-together on the 3rd and an optional lunch. \nFamilies/non-participants: Lake Arrowhead has many facilities and attractions for family members and partners to enjoy while the JAG participants convene\, and they are welcome\, as always. You would have to pay for their stay (it’s a discounted “non-participant” rate—contact me for details). Participants can expect to be completely busy apart from meals during the Saturday sessions\, but we’ll be done by the morning of the 3rd.

The daylong symposium introduced the manifold activities of Yoshida while locating his activities within the broader art and performance world in which he worked. \nOver some six decades of work\, Yoshida was instrumental in engaging\, participating\, and promoting radical art and performance. Yoshida introduced Maruki Iri and Maruki Toshi’s Hiroshima Panels in the early 1950s\, traveling to over 300 locations throughout Japan. As a critic in the 1960s and beyond\, Yoshida championed avant-gardes in art\, dance\, cinema\, music and performance–including Hi Red Center\, Neo-Dada\, butoh practicioners\, and the artists of the Yomiuri Indépendant exhibitions. Yoshida supported artists prosecuted for protest\, including Akasegawa Genpei and anti-Expo performers. \nYoshida took the lead in supporting conceptual\, environmental\, and commune-oriented art endeavors\, including organizing the first free festival in Japan in 1971. From 1973\, he traveled to South America\, to São Paolo and Buenos Aires organizing exhibitions. Returning to Japan\, he participated in the Artist Union and its artist-led symposia and exhibitions\, and from 1977\, the Japan Asia Africa Latin America Artist Association\, JAALA\, with a focus on solidarity with “third world” artists and activists. \nThe event accompanied an exhibition of works and ephemera from the Yoshida Yoshie Collection\, preserving significant portions of Yoshida’s library and archival materials. \nThe Yoshida Yoshie Collection and this event are thanks to the kind support of Kakuya and Atsushi Yoshida and the Yoshida family\, the Charles E. Young Research Library and staff\, the Terasaki Center for Japanese Studies\, the Japanese Arts and Globalizations Research Group (directed by William Marotti\, History)\, and artist and researcher Yoshiko Shimada. \n10:00am Welcome and Introduction.

Lighthouse raising at Iwaki\, Fukushima Prefecture\, 2011 Photo: Kei Miyajima\n\n\n\nSocially Engaged Art in Japan\nA UW-JSPS Joint Symposium\nNovember 12-14\, 2015\nUniversity of Washington\, Seattle \nThe past two decades have seen a surge in practices that cross the boundaries between art and social activism. Nowhere has the social turn been more deeply felt than in Japan\, where the art world has seen a massive shift towards socially engaged art and artists increasingly finds a role in rebuilding struggling communities\, helping disadvantaged populations\, and connecting people with local history and culture. As many have noted\, socially engaged art has emerged at a time when social services wither\, civic space disappears\, and visions of a shared future falter\, all trends which register with particular intensity in contemporary Japan. This symposium will explore how to understand the field of socially engaged practice in a global context and how Japan’s experience can inform that understanding. \n\n Keynote addresses by Kitagawa Fram and Sharon Daniel\n Artist talk by Tanaka Kōki\n Confirmed panelists Kawashima Nobuko\, Kuresawa Takemi\, Yoshimoto Mitsuhiro\, Adrian Favell\, Kumakura Sumiko\, Fukuzumi Ren\, Sasha Su-Ling Welland\, Ueda Kanayo\, Sumitomo Fumihiko\, Makiko Hara\, Xiaojin Wu\, Reiko Tomii\, William Marotti\, Mōri Yoshitaka\, Tad Hirsch\, Igarashi Taro\, Takehisa Yu\, Miwako Tezuka\, and Marilyn Ivy \n\nFor full details please visit the website: https://sites.google.com/a/uw.edu/seajapan/home. \nThis symposium is organized by Justin Jesty. \nGenerous support has been provided by the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science\, the Simpson Center for the Humanities\, the Japan Foundation Center for Global Partnership\, the Japan Faculty in Humanities and Arts\, the UW Japan Program\, and the UW Department of Asian Languages and Literature.

This conference examines the critical role of relationships of convergence\, similarity\, or identity whether or not these relationships serve to provoke new forms of difference.\n“Commensurable distinctions” operate within a globalized concept of art as distinctive visual dimensions generated by a transnational framework (format or genre)\, one that positions artists (and artworks\, styles\, movements) in relative measure to some standard presumed to have global reach or authority. Focusing on fluidity\, mutations\, and interstices as opposed to modes of analysis based on contained national and cultural forms\, we hope to examine the compatibility and global passages of transfer and transaction that lead to situated distinctions and complex drifts. This conference will provide another take on the JAG moniker and our shared injunction to consider “Japanese Arts and Globalizations.” We invite considerations of the frameworks operative in\, and generative of\, the possible identification of distinguishing features of modern Japanese art as commensurate with the distinguishing features of foreign counterparts. This conference aims to forge innovative approaches to the analysis of relationships between visual culture in Japan and other regions.\n(Download Flyer) \n  \n  \n  \nCONFERENCE SPONSORS: \nArt History Department\, UCI\nCenter for Asian Studies\, UCI\nDean of Humanities\, UCI\nEast Asian Languages & Literatures\, UCI\nFriends of Art History (FOAH)\, UCI\nJapanese Arts and Globalizations (JAG)\nMusic Department\, UCI\nUniversity of California Institute for Research in the Arts URL:https://jag.ucla.edu/event/commensurable-visual-culture/ LOCATION:UCI – Humanities Gateway\, Room 1010\, 1030 END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20130301T160000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20130301T180000 DTSTAMP:20260420T031105 CREATED:20151118T203809Z LAST-MODIFIED:20151118T203809Z UID:731-1362153600-1362160800@jag.ucla.edu SUMMARY:Adachi Gen\, "A Japanese Manga Artist in Occupied Indonesia; Ono Saseo and Modern Painting in East Asia" DESCRIPTION:Presented by Gen Adachi\, Japan Society for the Promotion of Science Fellow\nCo-hosted by the Interdisciplinary Japan Studies Group \nIn discussions of World War II propaganda in Japan and occupied Indonesia\, the cartoon artist\, Ono Saseo (1905-1954) is one of the most frequently referenced figures in relation to the increase of racial stereotypes in manga\, or cartoon-style drawing. He was in Indonesia from 1942 to 1946 as a propaganda painter. This study challenges this general understanding of Ono and re-examines his work by focusing on the following three ways that we may understand the diversity of his production. First\, Ono was not limited to militaristic messages in his work\, but rather portrayed styles of the period with humor and fancy\, inspired in part by jazz\, Western films\, and fashion. Second\, Ono continued to produce erotic images of women even during the war\, under the pretense of providing comfort for soldiers; almost all of these women were depicted as vamps who tempted or threatened men. Third\, in Indonesia\, he was interested in local art and established relationships with local Indonesian artists – something quite unusual at the time. There was mutual influence\, but he never depicted the dark side of the war. These three points help reveal the paradoxical motives and multiple-significance of Ono’s manga works in the wartime period. \n— \nGen Adachi is an art historian who has written on modern Japanese avant-garde art and manga including “Avant-garde Debates Over Japanese Tradition in the 1950’s with a Focus on the Role of Isamu Noguchi\,” which was published in S. Inaga (ed.). Artistic Vagabondage and New Utopian Projects\, (Kyoto: International Research Center for Japanese Studies\, 2011). He is currently a Post-Doctoral Research Fellowship for Young Scientists of Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (2010-2013) and is an adjunct lecturer at Joshibi University of Art and Design and other universities.

The symposium will read East Asian film and visual arts as part of a changing media landscape in relation to commercial cinema\, television\, and intermedia arts as well as political\, economic and cultural transformations. The conference topics include: the relation between urban space and the arts in cultural politics; reading the problems of film audience and reception; the important (and neglected) role of East Asian film and media theory and critical writings; East Asian arts movements in transnational perspective; film and visual art as a mediator of cultural/political history; avant-garde artist networks\, commercial culture\, and architectural transformation. The symposium aims to foster transnational and local scholarly perspectives on East Asian arts and media theory in the context of recent cross-disciplinary arguments in film and media studies. \nIn February 2013\, UC Berkeley’s Pacific Film Archive will host “Chronicles of Inferno: Japan’s Art Theater Guild\,”a retrospective of the films of Art Theatre Guild (ATG)\, Tokyo’s center of cinematic innovation from 1961-1988. This conference takes this opportunity\, in conjunction with this film series and other events concerning Japanese arts in the 1960s\, to bring together five invited media theorists from Japan\, the prominent film director Hani Susumu from ATG\, and 37 international scholars to discuss East Asian and Japanese cross-cultural developments in media theory and culture from the early twentieth century to the present. \nFor more information click here URL:https://jag.ucla.edu/event/jag-affiliate-y-february-7-8/ LOCATION:UC Berkeley END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20120407T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Los_Angeles:20120407T190000 DTSTAMP:20260420T031105 CREATED:20151118T214551Z LAST-MODIFIED:20151118T214551Z UID:743-1333789200-1333825200@jag.ucla.edu SUMMARY:"Japanese Arts and Globalizations\," April 7\, 2012\, Royce Hall 314\, UCLA Part of the “Rethinking the Space and Place of Japan” Conference* DESCRIPTION:9-10 Coffee and Check-in\n \n9:50\nWelcoming Remarks – William Marotti\, UCLA \n10-12\nPanel One: Authenticity is Elsewhere\nBert Winther-Tamaki\, UCI\, “Remediation: The Dependence of Modern Asian Ink Painting on New Media”\nChristine Spiker\, UCI\, “Exploring the Real Hokkaido: A.H.
