Cover of Yoshiko Uchida: Desert Exile (ePUB)

After the attack on Pearl Harbor, everything changed for Yoshiko Uchida. Desert Exile is her autobiographical account of life before and during World War II. The book does more than relate the day-to-day experience of living in stalls at the Tanforan Racetrack, the assembly center just south of San Francisco, and in the Topaz, Utah, internment camp. It tells the story of the courage and strength displayed by those who were interned.

本文論針對獨立策展發生於60年代至今的轉變進行主體性的思考，並觀察雙年展發展過程的特定案例的文化政治邏輯，試圖發展當代策展的「必要之惡」的美學實踐。在脫離宗教及醫療體系的策展-照料」在當代表演性、藝術性、及批判性策展的樣態，是一種在傳統策展人與藝術家角色所重疊的灰色地帶形成的差異性實踐，發展於「之間（in- between）」地帶而進行展演的創作。在如此概念，反映在展演空間的部署往往反應了空 …

何謂道？道者，首也，路也，路之起頭也，萬有之根源也，道理也，邏輯也，話也，言說也，絕對之道德標準也，至善也…… 吾國思想，以儒、釋、道三家為主流。道與儒固無論矣，即釋家所云佛性、真如，亦何莫而非道也。孔子曰，道不同，不相為謀。則異道之間，不能相授受，自古而然，不足異也。愚治中國學術，始自儒家，攻學碩士階段，乃入道家。其後數十年，教學之中，蓋用力與此，既深且博。而老莊學會會長楊汝舟博士，啟發獨多 …
