Staging History - Action and Reenactment in the Cultural Revolution
UC Berkeley presents a talk by Carma Hinton on the representation of China's revolutionary culture during the 1950s and 1960s.
When:
October 30, 2009 4:00pm to 6:00pm
Where
Carma Hinton, History and Art History, George Mason University
Alexander Cook, History, UC Berkeley, moderator
This lecture will be accompanied with excerpts from the documentary film, Morning Sun. It will address issues of spectacle and representation in China’s revolutionary culture during the 1950s and 1960s and examine how the development of political thinking and action during the Cultural Revolution (ca. 1964-1976) are linked to visual narratives of past revolutions. It will also discuss the difficult choices Hinton encountered from the perspectives of both a historian and a filmmaker in the process of making Morning Sun.
