The past at the edge of the future: Landscape painting and contemporary places

In this article, I offer an ethnographic account of Wutong Shan, and engage landscape painting as an interpretative device. Wutong Shan represents a unique phenomenon of urban transformation in that its residents cultivate a life harkening back to a rural past in an attempt to build a utopia unfettered by the deafening noise of modernity, which can easily be found down the road in Shenzhen, China’s newest city. Similar to what landscape painters throughout history have created through image, Wutong residents create a world of retreat, escape and natural beauty in a space at the edge of the urban. Both a landscape painting and this ethnographic place are built through a set of creative acts, a sense of self-cultivation, and a desire for escape. In Wutong Shan, the other side of the creative process is a livable environment rather than an art object. One of the ways I read landscape painting to understand Wutong Shan is by thinking with contemporary Chinese art works that, through illusion, revisit the landscape in light of industrial urbanization. I bring together three strains of thinking: (1) my contemporary ethnographic research on Wutong Art Village, (2) understandings of Chinese landscape paintings and their associated conceptions of nature and utopia and (3) contemporary art that renegotiates the landscape form, analysed through the emergent field of eco-art history.

The Museumification of Treasure Hill: Authenticity, Authority and Art in a Taiwanese Urban Village

AbstractThis article discusses the “museumification” of an urban village in Taipei into the Treasure Hill Artist Village in the context of wider debates on gentrification and the redevelopment of marginal urban spaces. Populated by soldiers evacuated to Taiwan following the Chinese Civil War, Treasure Hill became a hybrid space, combining welfare provision for elderly veterans with an artist colony, forming part of the Taipei Cultural Foundation. Lauded as a compromise that combined social, cultural and economic aspects of urban regeneration, the mix of high-modernist paternalism and neoliberal place-making resulted in the integration of the space into the existing city bureaucracy as a museum-like institution, with elderly residents and artists becoming exhibits in a living diorama. Although widely understood as “gentrification” at the time, the article argues that the museumification of Treasure Hill was a process led by a coalition of state and spatial experts which has distinct implications for the study of state-led neighbourhood amelioration.

도시재생 문화공간의 장소성 포지셔닝 : 문래예술창작촌 방문자들을 대상으로

본 연구는 유휴산업시설을 활용한 도시재생 문화공간의 장소성 포지셔닝 분석을 연구 목적으로 한다. 이를 위해 본 연구는 서울시 영등포구에 위치한 문래예술창작촌을 연구대상지로 선정하였다. 본 연구는 연구대상지 방문자를 대상으로 설문조사를 진행하였으며, 20개의 장소성 형용사를 추출하여 다차원척도법(PROXSCAL)을 통해 장소성 포지셔닝 맵을 도출하였다. 연구결과 도시재생 문화공간의 장소성은 ‘매력성’, ‘의미성’, ‘역사성’ 3개 요인으로 추출되었으며, 동시대 문화공간으로서의 장소성과 과거의 유휴산업시설의 역사적 장소성이 공존하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 방문객들의 포지셔닝 분석결과 문래예술창작촌은 주로‘독특한’, ‘매력적인’, ‘개성적인’, ‘기억에 남는’, ‘창조적인’, ‘의미있는’, ‘좋은 느낌을 주는’, ‘예술적인’, ‘재미있는’ 장소성으로 주로 인지되는 것으로 나타났고, 그들의 방문목적에 따라 장소성 인지가 다소 차이가 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 이러한 연구결과는 추후 도시 문화공간 계획가 및 관리자의 도시재생 및 마케팅 전략 수립에 기초 자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.

‘It is not only an artist village, it is much more than that’1. The binding and dividing effects of the arts on a community

Abstract The value of ‘the arts’ in community development is increasingly being recognized. This paper contributes to emerging insights on the various impacts of the arts on communities by highlighting when and how they can have binding and dividing effects on a community. We draw on a participatory research project conducted in Pingjum, a village in the Netherlands that hosts many cultural activities and in which many artists live. We discuss how the arts in Pingjum influence the community in the village. In our discussion, we pay attention to the sense of community that the arts generate, the meeting opportunities they provide and how the community is engaged by some artists. Our study shows that the influence of the arts is context-dependent, with the arts having both binding and dividing effects on the community in Pingjum. In terms of the value of the arts for community development, we emphasize three key issues: that the arts (i) do not have only advantages for a community; (ii) do not engage the entire community; and (iii) could potentially contribute to community fragmentation. Given these issues, we argue that the arts should be considered as one of several supportive means in community development processes. Ideally, they are integrated into a wider community development strategy and planning, and exist alongside other associations and activities in a community. In this way, the arts can contribute to the robustness of a community and assist it in developing the capacity and resources to flourish.

The Seamingly Seamless Subversion of Sime

This paper aims to provide a review of Ethiopian artist Elias Sime’s work and places a detailed discussion of some of his main influences and themes in the context of Africa’s perceived position in the global art village. The construct of subversion is explored in relation to Sime’s work to provide a rich understanding of what Sime may be communicating through his art, which often seems to be ostensibly apolitical. This article aims to encourage African artists and art critics to build up a significant body of work about our continent’s artistic output and thereby make their presence felt both in Africa and across the globe.
