A Creative China: Danny Yung and the Politics of Art in Hong Kong

Chung, Yi-huei 22 July 2010 (has links)
On 1 July 1997, sovereignty of Hong Kong was transferred to the People's Republic of China , ending over a one and half century of British rule. The cultural identities of people in Hong Kong have been an important research topic in the study, past research has generally focused on the dichotomy of a "Hongkongese" vs. a "Chinese" identity. But in this paper, I try to introduce Danny Yung¡¦s Chinese concept to explain a "Hongkongese" identity. Danny Yung is one of the most dynamic cultural figures in Hong Kong. As a director, producer, artist and curator he sets the cultural agenda not only in Hong Kong, but in many Asian countries, US and Europe. His works are experimenting and based on critic comments to daily media and culture politics in Asia. In 1982, he founded the art association ¡¬Zuni Icosahedron¡¬, which works with performing art, press events, art education and youth festivals nationally and internationally. This research discussed Danny Yung how to help "Hongkongese" get rid of the shadow of Britain and China ,and promote "Hongkongese" have a new identity.
