Event URL: fb.me/e/2eFSuskLa

Time: October 2nd (Sunday) 10:00-1200
Theme: “Life” is the topic of the book “Living as Refugees”. We may not be unfamiliar with the historical context, demographics, and living conditions of Tibetans in exile, but where do they work? What do you eat for lunch every day? Where to spend time with friends on holiday? Almost headless. But when I started to be friends with them, I started to discover that for Tibetans in exile, “eating, reading, earning money, dancing, traveling” has never been less important than “free Tibet”. Desire, in this sense, how they “eat, read, earn money, dance, travel” has become the core topic of my thinking about the refugee phenomenon.
Speaker: Peng Haoyun (Author of “Living as a Refugee: Me in Those Years, and the Exiled Tibetans in Delhi, India”)

5. [Group Portrait of Victims: Talking about the Fracture of the Fake and Reality of the Image from the Image of White Horror] (Turn left and there is a book)

Event URL: reurl.cc/jG4L9m

Time: September 27 (Tuesday) 19:00-20:30
Theme: When we look back at a history of persecution, images are regarded as important evidence of the era, but the ultimate exploration is only a frozen moment, a frame of pictures. So there is a rupture between reality and image. After the shutter, the subject’s right to speak disappears and becomes the other being watched, relying on the photographer’s words and introductions, or even the text that is added to the side. What exactly do we see when we stare at images? How to interpret group portraits of victims? #How to reconnect the gap between reality and image? This lecture will start with the power relationship between the photographer and the subject, and then further focus on gazing at the group portraits of the victims to explore the complex relationship between image creation and politics.
Lecturer: Wang Zhengxiang (author: “The Way of Watching: From Banyaming, Sontag to Selfie, Mobile Photography and IG, Image Whispering of a Taiwanese Slash Photographer”)
