read and speak Sanskrit - the language of the gods. That was
how they consolidated their power and retained their hold over
the populace. One had to go to them for rhe performance of
various rites and rituals. Ir was caste chat determined who spoke
Sanskrit and who spoke in the vernacular. In contrast , English has
hitherto been spoken in India by an economic elite. It has thus
been a marker of class, not caste. But this is changing now. With
popular cinema and television serving as its vehicle, Hinglish , and
its parallels in other Indian languages, is beginning to be spoken
by other sections of the population, not just the privileged classes.
One can foresee English, in this new avatar, eventually losing its
association with class, losing its status as a language linking only
the elites across the country , and perhaps even becoming the
dominant language of the streets.
Moderator IN-Sakai]: In the pre-modern era, kanji, in English
literally Chinese, or classical Chinese, served the same role as that
of Sanskrit. It was a language that was used only by a small
number of elites. Therefore it had universal characteristics that
enabled it to be used in Korea, China, Mongolia, and Vietnam.
The disintegration of such linguistic commonalties marked the
beginning of modernity. I think we should not dwell on this
subject too much.
Could we have Professor Tatehata comment on the issue of
triennials?
A. Tatehata: There was a question on how large-scale
international exhibitions, such as biennials and triennials, could
work as a cultural apparatus for the public . There was also a
question on the relationship between art for the public and pure
art. Also, there was a question about multiculturalism, which was
originally an ideology for living together , and whether it is
actually operative in biennials and triennials.
First of all, as to whether these international exhibitions are
cultural institutions oriented to the general public , I would say
that they are. Bur that does not mean that they are merely
entertainment. In most cases, large-scale international exhibitions
Session IV 399
are expected to attract a large number of visitors. The quality of
arr is nor direcrly correlated with the number of visitors, and chis
is often true for arr museums. The public orientation of a
triennial is inevitable, and chis kind of exhibition is nor worth
organizing unless there is a large rumour. But in order to compare
the arr in triennials with pure arr, it is necessary to define pure
arr.
For example, we could say that the most radical example of
pure arr is minimal arr. Its inorganic form is the ultimate in self-
reflexive arr. This is true from a formalist point of view, bur it can
be seen in a completely different way. Most minimal arr is made
of materials like stainless steel or ordinary steel char are common
in postwar industrial society, so it can be seen as emerging
because of changes in sensibility char appeared in postwar society,
reflecting the nature of industrial materials or industrial
production in which the same forms are repeated over and over.
So this is a difficult problem.
Bur it is true char international exhibitions are expected to be
a cultural institution char serves a large general audience. If we
agree on chis, then international exhibitions are different from
many other arr exhibitions because they are meant for the general
public and operated as one-rime festivals.
I am nor so optimistic as to imagine that the visitors to
Gwangju Biennale and Yokohama Triennale will become aware
and rake a strong interest in contemporary arr and eventually
become enthusiastic members of the arr audience just because of
seeing these shows. Bur I do agree char there is some meaning in
having a cultural institution char appeals to the general public.
We talked about multiculturalism and how it is an ideology for
harmonious living. I chink char a situation in which a variety of
cultures are spread our in a disorderly fashion constitutes a kind
of social criticism. Even if chis does not increase the number of
fans for contemporary arr, it would certainly raise the public's
consciousness and provide chem with new perspectives. In
reality, the sire of artistic production is nor very multicultural. Ir
may be char multiculturalism is fabricated to a certain extent in
order to fill the large, empty spaces of a triennial exhibition. To
400 Session lV
say this implies self-criticism. We need to be very careful, but the
possibility of this happening remains.
There was also a question on whether or not there are too
many biennials. The 1980s was the era of art museums, while the
1990s was the era of biennials and triennials. There may be some
problems involved in this phenomenon. There may be some art
that is created to fit the imperatives of biennials or triennials.
What can we do about his? In reality, I think we have to let
natural selection operate. If things get boring, they will stop.
Exhibitions can explore social commitment in art through a
self-critical process. For example, the current exhibition, "Under
Construction" sees art or culture as something that is always
under construction. If this kind of art is brought into an art
museum setting, the urban culture of the streets is directly
transplanted into the exhibition space and it rejects the aura of
the museum or the white cube. However, disappointment with
the space must be expressed in the space in some cases.
The same situation may be seen in the film Not One Less,
although this may not be a perfect analogy. When the violent
structure of the medium of television was introduced in the film,
the whole film screen became a television medium. There is an
element of self-criticism in this irony. Self-criticism could be
taken as masochistic. But my point is that the masochism should
be thought of positively.
fu to the last question regarding a good audience nurturing
good art, and how the audience is still in the development in
fuia. This is like the problem of the chicken and the egg.
Nurturing a good audience may be the mission of an art museum
or an art critic. But why do we need to develop a good audience?
Is it to make art flourish? If so, is it not mistaking the means for
the end? Can viewers become enlightened, become better people,
have a better life, or gain a greater critical awareness of society
through art? This probably isn't true. We are - or rather, I am
an art professional. But do I have a better life, a better personality,
or a greater ability to criticize society? I doubt it. Rather than
putting off an answer, I would probably have to say no.
Session IV 40 I
S. Yoshimi: I chink chis issue also concerns Professor Bennett.
T. Bennett: Yes, I'm also interested in the question about whether
or not biennials extend the social reach of arc. I do not know
what the answer to chis question is, but maybe I could suggest a
slightly different way of approaching it. I do not know what is the
case in relation to the biennials chat were mentioned earlier chis
afternoon, but there is a difference between saying chat biennials,
arc festivals and similar kinds of activities attract a large number
of people, and saying chat they are successful in extending the
social reach of art. To extend the social reach of arc is about
reaching new kinds of people, those who, in terms of their social
characteristics, are unlikely to be reached by art museums. In
other words, it may well be that biennials reach a large number of
people, but only those social and cultural elites who already go to
art museums, offering chem a concentrated period of artistic
involvement and appreciation. In which case, you have not really
extended the social reach of art at all. You have just given those
who are already involved in the institution of art an intensive and
concentrated arc experience. fu I said, I do not know whether this
is or is not the case. Bur I think chat whether new forms of art
exhibition and practice extend the social reach of arc is not just a
question of how many people are attracted to them; we also need
to know about the social characteristics of chose people. In a way,
if all you do is gee more people in the seats, but they are the same
types of people, you have not really extended the social reach of
arc. You have just heightened the experience of chose who are
already involved in the social institution of art.
Secondly, I would like to resist the suggestion - in relation
to any kind of art institution - chat the expansion of its audience
is something which cakes place at the expense of arc as an end in
itself. For I don't think the notion of art as an end in itself, or art
for arcs' sake, is a coherent one. I am not sure doing anything for
its own sake is either plausible or intelligent. And it 's noteworthy
that chis discourse of arc as an end in itself is now only rarely
supported by art producers. They are usually involved in
producing arc for a particular reason - political, ideological,
402 Session IV
aesthetic, etc. - which is not the same as arc as an end in itself.
Usually the discourse of art for arc's sake is associated with a
particular ethos of arcs consumption, one with its roots in
Western arc theory, especially Kantian aesthetics in the stress it
places on the need co attend to art disinterestedly as an end in
itself. I just wanted, then , co recall Pierre Bourdieu's argument
chat chis notion of art serves as a powerful ideology of artistic
consumption through which chose whose educational, social and
cultural backgrounds give chem a privileged access co the arts
distinguish themselves from che vulgar. Whenever people say chat
art is an end in itself, chat claim disguises a powerful process of
social division chat arc institutions have been, and continue co be,
involved in.
My third point is a reflection on whether quality art needs
quality audiences. I really enjoyed the way the question was put,
and also enjoyed Professor Tacehaca's response, in questioning
chat che notion chat involvement in the institutions of art is
necessarily something chat produces a good person. However, one
thing chat happens in institutions of art is chat certain kinds of
historical art get stored up and made available co us in the
present. But it does require particular forms of training co be able
co cake part in debates concerning arc's value and role. Again, I
should like co recall Bourdieu here, for he offered a very powerful
answer co the question of whose responsibi lity it is co make chis
training generally available co all groups within society. For while
Bourdieu always argued chat arc did have a distinctive kind of
value, he was also always emphatic chat it was the responsibi lity of
the institution of education co equalize access co the means of
artistic appreciation. Whenever you are talking about art and
access, you cannot leave education out of the picture .
T. Mizusawa: I would like co add co Professor Tacehaca's
comment.
I sense chat Professor Tacehaca's comment turned cynical
because he got worn out working as the artistic director for the
Yokohama Triennale last year. fu co the discussion on how
biennials and triennials may have the potential co change the
Session IV 403
existing system, as mentioned in Professor Lee's presentation, I
would say chat we have been aware of this for some time now. I
chink we had chat kind of notion already at the beginning of the
20th century, when exhibitions emerged as modernism began co
spread throughout the world. Since 1910 or so in Europe,
regardJess of their scale, exhibitions were seen as a media chat
could carry a message ofliberation , or a new framework that
could transcend existing academic discourses.
This movement unfolded with political implications, and
rose to new heights in exhibitions such as "Sonderbund
Internationale Kunstausstellung " in Cologne or the "Armory
Show" in New York. People eventually began to share the
concepts of modernism through these developments.
Ironically, this culminated in the exhibitions organized by
the Nazis. In 1937, the Nazis organized the "Entartece Kunst
(Degenerate Arc)" exhibition in Munich Hofgarcen, presenting
over 500 artworks and attracting 2 million visitors. This must
have been the largest contemporary art show held in the first half
of the 20th century. They only had three weeks to prepare chis
show. Goebbels ordered Hans Ziegler, president of the National
Art Academy, to organize an arc exhibition of degenerate arc,
giving him only three weeks of preparation .
This is an example of the ideas about time that Professor Lee
discussed. The Nazi government made a list of degenerate arc.
The authorities knew where these artworks were scored, so they
gathered the works from public museums that owned them co put
on the show. To counter this exhibition, the government
organized its official "Great German Art" exhibition. These two
exhibitions were organized to be presented at the same time. The
official show also attracted 600 thousand visitors in three months.
Although this number is small compared to the "Degenerate Arc"
exhibition, it is stiU strikingly large. If we got a turnout like chis
today, we would fall off our chairs from astonishment. There
were 2.6 million people in total who went co see the two shows.
The sheer scale of these experiences had their consequences in
German history. For example, Documenra in Kassel was founded
as a means of healing the wound of such wartime experience. Its
404 Session IV
powerful message of freedom lives on in the people who present
contemporary art.
I must say that as the number and scale of international
exhibitions continue to grow, we are starting to lose direction and
face problems that are outside of our control. I think that this is
something we need to think about and discuss, hopefully leading
to a productive debate.
Moderator [N. Sakai]: Thank you. This probably has something to
do with what we have been talking about. There was a question
of whether or not contemporary art will be carried on in the
future. I would like to pass this question on to Professor Koizumi
and Professor Bennett.
S. Koizumi: I may be repeating what Professor Tatehata said, but
I think that the issue is whether or not there is any culture that
lasts. In other words, all we need to do is to see if something that
is said to have been carried on actually has. For example, does it
matter is if ukiyo-e is still being done today? I believe that
contemporary art should be done as a form of 20th century art
beyond any consideration of whether it is being carried on or not.
T. Bennett: I would put the matter differently. Rather than
a;!f-;,:.,,,-;,,;-•• 2oe1
1ifitil1~.~7 ./7 - ~i)::.71T:
Session IV 405
speaking of art or culture as an inheritance, I would say that each
generation - through particular institutions of memory -
organizes those aspects of the past that are judged by its members
ro be relevant to their present concerns. This involves something
different from inheritance for - and this is ro rehearse the view
that many scholars, like Raymond Williams, have argued - any
tradition is an active selection of the past made within the
present. It is not something that is simply handed down by
people from the past and received passively by people in the
present, as if they had no alternative. If there is one thing that is
clear in the history of art, for example, it is that the history of
evaluation of artistic practice is not constant. We alter the place
that works of art occupy relative to one other within aesthetic
hierarchies. It is usually not the case, of course, that there is a
complete reversal and overthrowing of hierarchies from one
period to another - although there are periods of such radical re-
evaluation. But it is equally not the case that the judgements of
one period carry over and prevail, and are carried over like a
sedimentary rock formation into the next generation. We re-value
the works of the past as we relate them to contemporary concerns
that are always linked up with political, ideological, and
contemporary current cultural processes.
G. Mohamad: Allow me to comment on the issue of exhibitions
and biennials. I think Professor Tatehata mentioned the centers.
The different kinds of biennials have created different kinds of
centers, ifl understood you correctly. The more you have this
kind of thing, the more you create a constant de-centering of
possibilities of the art. The question is whether this kind of
constant de-centering will create a democratic experience or access
to artistic products. My hunch is that in art in the realm of ideas,
there is always a perpetual production of elites, whether you like
it or not.
In the social history of resources, there are two kinds of
wealth. One is democratic wealth, which is theoretically accessible
to everybody. The other one is oligarchic wealth, which could
only attained by a very small number of people or even one single
406 Session IV
person.
So even if Van Gogh's Sunflower painting has been
reproduced in millions of postcards and calendars, there would be
a person who wants to own the original and spend much time to
obtain it. It is not about the aura of the art, as Walter Benjamin
said, but it is about a kind of social impulse that produces this
perpetual production of elitism.
Moderator [N. Sakai]: So now we are talking about the issue of
appreciation of art, but this issue and the issue of representation,
which we have been talking about over and over today, are closely
related.
There are two questions which are closely related to our
current discussion. One is on tokenism, as pointed out by Mr.
Elliott . The other is about why Singapore and Malaysia are not
taking part in the "Under Construction" exhibition. The "other"
in Asia, which is outside Japan - how is this represented in this
current exhibition? I think these two questions are closely related,
so I would like to ask them together.
Could I ask Mr. Elliott first, to start with the issue of
tokenism?
D. Elliott: When I mentioned tokenism, I was talking about, in
big international shows, whether in museums or biennials, you
have your token someone from outside the charmed circles -
from some part that used to be called the "developing world." I
am afraid Japan was included in this, because it was not Western
Europe or North America. The system continues a little bit. I
think the last Documenta quite consciously tried to overturn it,
but it did not manage with regards to Asia, because it almost
totally disregarded this vast continent. Africa did quite well in
these stakes, so the African stock is going up. We have not yet
reached a level really where all parts of the world are considered
on an equal plane . Why should they be considered on an equal
plane? Because they are all part of the same discussion now. That
was what I was trying to say. But there is one discussion, and it is
not just focused on the West , but it is everywhere. That is a
Session IV 407
discussion which relates to contemporaneity.
When I was trying to do with this metaphor of"art and
trouser," - and perhaps I should say in parenthesis, is that the
largest empire in the world, the one that lasted for the longest
time was that of Genghis Khan which lasted 450 years and
stretched further out than the British Empire or the German or
the French - and if the Mongolian Empire had continued into
the modern period the name of my talk would have been "Art
and Horses," because, as we all know, horses figure very strongly
in Mongolian culrure and art. But no, I wrote about "Arr and
Trousers." I was trying to use the "trouser" as a kind of an
indicator of what still remains from colonialism in
postcolonialism. Ir is this underlying element that you do not
question, and is part of you now, because you cannot go back. I
think you cannot go back to doing ukiyo-e, unless some amazing
person completely rethinks ukiyo-e. Ukiyo-e now in Japan is
photography and manga. I think that one has to try to get hold of
that in this discourse: that we might not understand each other,
we might be wildly different, but we are all in the same
discussion. And we get out of it what we put into it.
About Singapore and Malaysia ..... Poor Singapore and
Malaysia! The Mongolians are very mad, too, because they were
not in the exhibition. Genghis Khan is going to declare war on
the Japan Foundation. I am sorry, I not being rude about the
question. I do not think that the exhibition was about
representation. For me, it is about process. That process is
empowering curators in different parts, and it could have been
Malaysia or somewhere else, to do something and bring it all
together and see what happens. The exhibition has all the
strengths and all the weaknesses of the process happening. But it
is a very good process - perhaps more important than the
exhibition itself. I think it is the first time it has been done, and it
is a great experiment.
Could I say something quickly about audience and art? I do
not think Kant ever said art was an end in itself. That came
hundred years later. The point that he made was that art is
autonomous. If it is autonomous unto itself, how is it intelligible?
408 Session IV
Kane's solution to that was that it was about beauty. Art had to be
beautiful. How do people know what beauty is? Beauty for Kam
was a moral entity. Everyone, whether they are bad or good, has
an innate relationship to morality. I am not talking about a
bourgeois sense of morality, bur I am talking about moralilty in
the sense of moral philosophy, not about sexual morals or
moralism. That is the point about art . It is related to life. Why
bother about audience? They have a life, too. It is the art and
culture of their times. Obviously , if you are committed to art, you
want to share it with other people.
The important thing about art is that it critiques and
subverts the use of many of the channels by which you usually
understand things, as in communication. And this is an
important function. It is often internally contradictory. It is not
making a single statement bur many statements, some of them
conflicting with each other on different levels. And that is how we
are. That is its richness and that is its beauty - or part of its
beauty.
Moderator [N. Sakai]: I think the issue Mr. Vellani brought up as
part of the Indian problem, at the level of different states within
the nation, is closely related to the problem of Asia as a whole and
its relationship with the different parts of Asia. If we look at the
issue from this perspective, we may link it to the issue of
tokenism. On the contrary, there may be a problem in Japan of
representing the Asia as a whole, and countries in Asia could resist
being cast outside as the "other." These issues may be related, or
may not be related. Could I have a comment on this please?
A. Vellani: When would we say that an act of representing or
including - say an artist or a country or an art form - smacks
of tokenism? It is when we perceive the act to be nothing more
than a symbolic gesture, one that does not reflect the true beliefs
or convictions of the author of the action.
An act of representing or including in one realm might
suggests tokenism because it runs contrary to how that agency has
consistently acted in the past or in other realms. Consider a
Session IV 409
multicultural country where che Scace organizes dance festivals
chat give representation co che movement expression of all the
different regions and ethnic groups. Its economic and social
policies, however, point co a strong bias in favor of groups
representing mainstream rather than minority cultures. One
could righcly conclude chat the government 's inclusion of
minority cul cure in its dance festivals is a form of tokenism, and
chat its so-called commitment ro cultural diversity is more
rhetorical than ideological.
Or cake a specific example. The Indian government has given
very liccle recognition co che various bailee groups in the country,
whose work springs from the innovations ofUday Shankar in the
lace colonial period. This is because che Indian bailee tradition
chat he created is seen as foreign in its inspiration. Bue during the
100th anniversary of his birch, che government did sponsor a
festival of the work oflndian bailee groups and discussions on
Uday Shankar's contribution co dance . This was clearly a case of
tokenism because it flies in che face of che nationalise discourse
chat otherwise informs che State's cultural policies. My point is
chat one makes token gestures to appear politically correct, when
one feels under pressure or finds it expedient co publicly uphold
principles or beliefs chat are not one's own.
In an exhibition of Asian arc, che arc of a particular country
4 IO Session IV
may be represented by too few or inadequate examples. But it
would be wrong to conclude on that basis alone that the art of
that country has been tokenized. This is because thoughtlessness
or incompetence might explain the under-representation.
Tokenism is an intentional act of making small concessions for
reasons that have nothing to do with one's core beliefs or
perspectives. Therefore to damn the exhibition for tokenizing a
country's art, we would need the support of arguments that show
that the exhibition organizers subscribe to views or policies that
indicate that this is an instance of tokenism. Their past record
might tell us, for instance, that they consider that country to be
not at the heart of Asia but at its periphery. Or that their idea of
Asia excludes that country altogether.
T. M izusawa: There was a question, which mentioned that it was
perhaps Asia who was "co-figuring" itself. When we speak of Asia,
it depends on what samples we select to represent it. The
dynamics of co-figuration - the acknowledgement of an entiry
through its relationship with an external entiry - and its
propensity to project an integrated representation, when
underwritten by a cultural apparatus, is a modernist
phenomenon. So the example of the fascist representation in the
exhibitions of 1937 is a case of such a dynamic demonstrated in
an extreme say. On the contrary, a force that counters this
dynamic motivates us to create our exhibitions today. It is the
source _of our energy. Yer because the same problem still remains,
we are trying to understand this issue now.
In relation to the issue of moderniry, I would like to
introduce the example of the discovery of Japanese crafts in
modern rimes. Craft existed before modern rimes, but by calling
it mingei, it was reinvented in a co-figurative scheme in which it
was opposed to art forms such as yoga and nihonga.
Yanagi Soersu, an international figure of the generation
following Okakura Kakuzo, discovered mingei. This is how we
have come to acknowledge mingei today. Yanagi, in a co-
figurative framework, claimed that something called "Eastern
beauty" could be found in zakki, or ordinary crockery, produced
Session IV 411
by anonymous artists . This created a nested concept of tradition.
Yanagi commented on tradition from a modern perspective.
The dynamic created by making this comment was in itself a
modern phenomenon . Prior to that time, the Japanese were most
likely unaware of"anonymiry. " Once "anonymiry" was called
"anonymiry," anonymiry is lost. Once these artists we recognized
as "unknown, " they were no longer unknown . This paradoxical
dynamic gave birth to mingei in Japan, and it was a dynamic that
supplemented the salon-rype exhibitions organized by the
government at the time. Eventually, mingei developed into a self
reinforcing system in which it endorsed itself. To touch on a very
sensitive issue, Yanagi became the authoriry who decided what
constituted mingei in Korea. His system of endorsement reached
Okinawa, and even Mexico through his follower, Hamada Shoji.
This phenomena could be seen as a cell splitting into two,
where the object that was pure - doubtful as this may be -
acquired a second life with the help of the dynamics at work . This
may be analogous to how the situation of Wei in Not One Less
was transformed when she let tears roll down her cheeks on the
television screen. Something had changed completely at that
particular moment. In other words, the unknown crafrsman was
transformed as soon as craft became known as mingei. I think
there is a kind of modernist program at work in the background ,
which forces us to articulate and share a common representation .
There were not many museums in Japan at the time, so
Yanagi established his own private museum called Nihon
Mingeikan Qapanese Folk Arts Museum). He had to do so in
order to create a space where he could share his idea of
representation.
Moderator [N. Sakai): Thank you,. I would like to turn now to
Mr. Mohamad, and then to Professor Chow, who has done
interesting research on tokenism.
G. Mohamad: As I understand it, many ideas of multiculturalism
in the United States, and maybe in Europe, too, imply that
identiry is a form which is basically a group phenomena - either
412 Session IV
nation, race, or religion. In other words, it is identity that
represses difference. The importanc e of difference is that it can
speak something that does not come from the group identity. If
there is no Singaporean artist, maybe the organizer was not
concerned with group identity as much as individual expression.
The problem is the distorted notion of multiculturalism on a
larger scale. There was an incident in the United Scates, in which
the father killed his daughter because she rebelled against him by
marrying a person he did not like. The defending claim was chat
ic was culturally okay for che father co kill che daughter who
rebelled against the father. The notion of mulciculcuralism is
usually tolerance, but ic gives no freedom for the woman co be
different from che difference. In F ranee, years ago, they cried co
prevent three girls from wearingjilbabs. Some intellectuals
defended chis by claiming chat these girls should have the
freedom co be different from their identity. The idea of difference
as a kind of emancipation against identity should be part of che
agenda today.
R. [how: I would like co briefly say chat che whole question of
mulciculcuralism in the United Scates indeed makes the question
of tokenism a very urgent one, and ic seems co not go away. There
are mainly two issues. I chink it is highly problematic chat it is
only certain people who tend co be created as tokens, racially,
ethnically or something in terms of gender. The criticism of
tokenism along chose lines is very clear co all of us. You single out
a few members of chose races or ethnicities or genders and make
chem represent che entire group. So che whole issue of group is in
question . le is as if a certain group of race or ethnicity could be
represented by one or two people.
On che ocher hand, since I have found myself in che position
of being a token a lot of che time, I also understand chat a certain
kind of power comes with tokenism . I, for one, would not like co
not use chat power. If chis is the only opporcuniry I have, I chink
ic is much better chat I use it rather than letting ic go altogether
because of being overly critical. So I chink I am slighcly
schizophrenic on the whole issue of tokenism.
Session IV 4 ll
In the West, for a person of color to have any agency in
speaking, you are always, in spite of who you are and what you
intend, you are always perceived as a token, whether or not you
like it. So if we speak as tokens, we do so with the full knowledge
that we are implicated in the system of tokenism. I do not think
that any person individually could overcome this.
Moderator [N. Sakai]: Now, I would like to take questions from
the floor in response to che previous comments by the panelist, or
anything that is related to the whole symposium.
Question: My question may be abstract, bur while listening to
Professor Chow's presentation, I thought that in the situation of
Asian film directors there is an inconsistent or contradictory force
chat is at work within che individual film director or the audience.
I felt that it was important to re-examine che conflicting forces at
work here which are more fluid than a single locus of power
which is usually revealed by culcural studies.
If this is the case, a representational artwork, particularly
film, is a unique medium which moves in che direction of
embracing a variety of conditions. I thought that the Asia in
transformation is related to this.
When we turn our eyes to Japan, there are not many places
in which artworks can be viewed in terms of mulcifaceted
criticism . There is not enough information. Bur at today's
symposium, I found much new information. I think it is
important to have places like this to discuss the issues. Would you
care to comment?
R. [how: I think that chose of us, Professor Sakai and myself who
are perceived as token in America, are not going to be tokens
when he is in Japan and I am in the Chinese-thinking world. I
am not sure. I think chis is a very different question. I do not
wane co give a facile answer, so with your permission, I would
have to defer from che question.
Moderator [N. Sakai]: I chink you are saying that culcural studies
414 Session IV
cannot be applied co situations in which political relationships are
so obvious. This is hard co know. le seems chat cultural studies in
Japan needs co be connected to a place where various kinds of
forces are in conflict. I chink the best person co answer chis
question is Professor Yoshimi.
S. Yoshimi: In relation co the problem of site, the problem of a
site which makes representation and criticism possible, I was just
chinking about how a space in which arc is represented -
particularly the arc of Asia or avant-garde arc - developed
significancly in the period after World War II.
Lee us look at the relationship between arc and the Scace in
the postwar period of the 1950s and 1960s and after. In contrast
co chis morning's discussion on the Gwangju Biennale, I would
like co talk about a Japanese example, the Osaka Expo of 1970. I
had an opporcuniry co interview video artist Yamaguchi Kacsuhiro
and musician Akiyama Kuniharu, and they cold me chat many of
the avant-garde artists who were active in the 1960s became
involved with, or were coopced by, Expo '70. One might ask,
today, why so many of these artists became pare of the system
with Expo '70. Ac the time, many of chem had hopes chat che site
or space of Osaka Expo would give chem an opporcuniry co
achieve something. The sites of national policies and artistic
representation came together in Osaka Expo, which attracted 60
million visitors, but the experience of the artists who cook pare in
Expo led co disillusionment and despair. I have heard chat they
had difficulry moving forward for the next decade or so.
In looking back at the period of the 1970s and 1980s, I chink
about the places chat provided alternative venues for presenting
art co young people in the context of urban culcure. Sogecsu Hall
was important, of course, but the venues run by the Saison group
was another example. For example, the Seibu Arc Museum was
founded in line with Tsutsumi Seiji's department score business
strategy. Studio 200 in Ikebukuro emerged and presented avant-
garde art in a relationship with commercialism. I believe Studio
200 and Seibu Arc Museum were venues chat introduced Asia arc
at a very early stage. I chink there were two sides co these
Session IV 415
ventures, and it would not do co criticize chem just because they
had a commercial aspect.
In the 1990s, we saw the Japan Foundation Asia Center
organizing symposia, or supporting exhibitions such as "Under
Construction." We need co chink of what chis means. So co
answer che question, che place where we can shed light on the
issue of the relationship between arc and policies in Japan is, for
example, here in chis space. Could we not see how sites for artistic
representation evolved by looking at the flow from Osaka Expo co
Saison, Saison co the Japan Foundation Asia Center? This issue
could be addressed in terms of the structure of Japanese arc
during the period after World War II, particularly during the
period of the Cold War. During the same period, the
decentralization of arc, caking it away from government venues,
has been a persistent issue. I chink we can find our current
position in chis context.
Moderator [N. Sakai]: Thank you. We have another five minutes
until closing. Are there any ocher questions?
Question: This is another question addressed co Professor Chow
and Professor Yoshimi.
First, co Professor Chow. I understood rhe analysis in your
paper today as a kind of allegory explaining rhe transition from
directness co abstraction in the film. Your critical essay itself could
be read as a somewhat abstract allegory rather than criticism with
a realistic message chat can be read directly. Ir seems co me chat
rhe structure of your critical analysis is analogous co char of the
result of your analysis.
If chis is rhe case, I chink the transition co a more abstract ,
commercial or media-bound world in the film is accompanied by
a sore of yearning for a direct engagement, which gets
marginalized in the process. How do you look at directness in the
process of shifting co abstraction? What is rhe source of your
feelings coward direct engagement?
R. [how: When I see the film now, because I see Zhang Yimou 's
416 Session IV
work very well, I am not a naive reader of his films. When I see
his film, I know chat a certain coming is always is in his style.
Because of chat I tend co be much more alert co the face chat
everything on che screen may be seen in a dual way. So chat was
what my paper was about. In ocher words, how he managed co
make a film under censorship; che Chinese authorities thought ic
is was about realism, ic is about the poor people in the
countryside and he did a fine job. Bue at che same time, if you
look at che film language chat he used skillfully, I chink chat you
can see a very different sec of message.
How I am moved by che film? I am precisely moved by chat
level of coming, so chat you can in face engage with che film at
both levels. I was very couched by che sentimental story. le made
me cry. Bue at the same time there are more things going on in
che film chat speaks co us about the complexity about the new
media in China now - how exploitative ic can be.
Question: I guess you are attracted co the artistic qualities of the
director.
R. [how: Yes.
Question: I would like co ask Professor Yoshimi something in
relation co che previous topic. When chinking about
representation and identiry, you say chat Asia's representation is
rwo-sided or ambiguous and proceed co analyze che pluses and
minuses. Then you said chat it is important how we actually see
Asia after chis analysis, from chis stage on. What motivates you, in
your position as a critic, co cake case studies from everyday life in
Asia?
S. Yoshimi: I probably cannot give a general answer co your
question. In chis symposium, I particularly found Mr.
Mohamad's presentation extremely interesting. I chink you can
find the answer co your question in his presentation. I was also
stimulated by Mr. Vellani's presentation of the Indian context.
Mr. Mohamad and Mr. Vellani talked about very different
Session IV 417
things, but what they discussed in both the Indonesian context
and the Indian context offers a kind of answer to your question.
For example, "Under Construction," at a different level, gives
an example of what young artists are thinking about in their
everyday life. I think we have to scudy each case individually to
look for a practical answer to the question, so I think that Mr.
Mohamad or Mr. Vellani would be able to provide a more
adequate answer.
Moderator IN. Sakai]: Thank you. It is already past 7 o'clock now.
I would like to continue, but it is impossible so we shall conclude.
Thank you.

Report: Symposium "Asia in Transition "
In 2001, I was invited by the Japan Foundation Asia Center to
participate as a member of the planning team of chis symposium,
which consisted ofY. Furuichi, A. Hoashi as organizers, and T .
Mizusawa, A. Tacehaca, and Y. Kamiya as members who are experts
on art. My role was to first introduce leading professionals in the
respective fields, ocher than the visual arcs, such as cultural studies,
history of ideas, literature , journalism, film and ochers, whose
interests are in the area of the arcs in its widest sense (aesthetics,
museum, arc museum, art market, institution of knowledge, mass
media, etc.), as well as cultural activities and history of thoughts in
Asia. Consequently, I was to be involved in the preparation of
creating a stage for participants to hold a constructive discussion.
Tony Bennett, Rey Chow, Yoshimi Shunya, and Wang Hui were
among the recommended intellectuals from Asia, Europe, and North
America who were able to join this discussion in Tokyo. Goenawan
Mohamad, with whom I became acquainted when I was invited as
senior fellow from the Japan Foundation in 1997-98, also joined us. I
considered the relationship between the visual culture, not limited to
the field of visual arts, and the geographic scope of Asia as the main
agenda of the symposium. Therefore, I prepared my keynote speech
so that we could develop our discussion with this focus, and made an
effort to coordinate other presentations with my own assertions.
We were able to discuss new and important issues, such as those
on policies and modernism in arc exhibitions, complicity of
nationalism and colonialism . As these issues were discussed in
contexts chat had not been covered so extensively in the visual arts
discourse before, I found chis to be a great achievement. Careful
432 Panelists' Comments
planning and preparation by the organizers provided the grounds for
our success. But I believe that this debate did not conclude this time
and, rather, opened new doors for further debate in the future. The
question posed by Y. Furuichi, A. Hoashi, T. Mizusawa, A. Tatehata,
Y. Kamiya was: "What is Asia?" This theme is important to
intellectuals, not only in Asia, but also in Europe and America. It
retains a dynamism that could potentially involve professionals in
other fields, as the issues in the visual ans give way for others to join
in. I found this experience to be very satisfying. Qanuary 2003)

On Multiple "Asia" - as Moderator of Session I
I believe this symposium enabled us to make an analysis relative
to a larger framework in discussing Asia. In the past symposia
organized by the Japan Foundation Asia Center to discuss this topic,
the process of establishing an "Asia" as a countering concept to the
"West" had been questioned several times. But this time, this became
one of the key agenda in our discussion.
This was more so, as Professor Sakai Naoki of Cornell University
kicked off the sessions with a "keynote speech" with fervor and
conviction. The issue that was addressed could be encapsulated in the
question: Is there any possibility of calling "us" as "Asians," beyond
the "cartographic" construct that was initiated by the schematism of
"co-figuration" of Europe? Ifwe continue to keep ourselves ignorant
of this construct, the dominant idea of "Asia" could reinforce the "co
figuration" construct and perpetuate its viscous cycle. In the first
presentation of Session I, Professor Koizumi Shinya, projected a
daring hypothesis that the "Asia" that Okakura imagined in his
words, "Asia is one" was an "empty space." This theory illustrates an
alternative image of Okakura to that of an Asian idealogue, and
transpire a versatile image of Okakura as an "Asian." In the next
presentation, Professor Wang Hui from a perspective on economic
history, rendered a macroscopic historical view of Asia whose rich
culture was generated by an economic sphere developed through a
tributary system centered around China. Regrettably, I was not able
to navigate the discussion well enough as moderator, and could not
