HOMECOMING: PHOTOGRAPHS BY SUNG HYUN SOHN
OPENING RECEPTION THURSDAY, OCTOBER 13, 2016, 5:00 – 7:00 PM | ARTIST TALK 5:30 PM
YMCA OF THE UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 1001 SOUTH WRIGHT STREET, CHAMPAIGN
Homecoming tells the stories of Koreans in countries such as the USA, Japan, China, and Russia for the past 100 years. Through Sung Hyun Sohn’s photographs, the exhibit takes an intimate look at the living states of Korean immigrants in foreign lands and the social institutions that force them to live as strangers, even when they return to Korea, revealing the barren and difficult landscapes of the transnational Korean lives.
MUSIC OF ASIA
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 15, 2016, 8:00 PM MUSIC BUILDING AUDITORIUM
1114 WEST NEVADA STREET, URBANA Presented by Robert E. Brown Center for World Music
Gah Rahk Mah Dahng is a traditional Korean percussion performance team at the University of Illinois. As a registered student organization, they aim to raise awareness about Korean culture through its music. The specific type of music they play is samulnori, which is made up of four different instruments--jing (large gong), janggu (hourglass-shaped drum), buk (barrel drum), and ggwaenggwari (small gong)--that represent wind or lightning, rain, clouds, and thunder respectively. Samulnori music was traditionally played in prayer for good harvest, but today may often be played for both musical performance and social protest. Bali Lantari is an Urbana-Champaign based ensemble led by I Ketut Gede Asnawa who specializes in the performing arts of Bali, Indonesia. The ensemble performs traditional Balinese gamelan music, along with dance under the direction of Putu Oka Mardiani Asnawa, together celebrating and sharing the beautiful cultural arts of Bali. I Ketut Gede Asnawa is a full-time visiting faculty member of the School of Music and Robert E. Brown Center for World Music at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Jasmine Field Orchestra is a collective of nearly thirty Chinese undergraduate and graduate musicians from various majors who perform Chinese folkloric music and contemporary works in unique ensembles blending Chinese and Western instruments. Members of Jasmine Field arrange and compose new works that combine elements of Chinese music
traditions with a wide spectrum of Western music including classical, jazz, rock and pop. Jasmine Field is a registered student organization at the University of Illinois, and is associated with the Chinese Student & Scholar Association. Koto Performance by Jessica C. Hajek & Hilary Brady Morris: Musicology graduate students Jessica C. Hajek and Hilary Brady Morris will perform "Sunae" (Sand Picture), a koto duet composed by Tadao Sawai in 1973. One of the most recognized traditional Japanese instruments, the koto is a long wooden zither with 13-strings and movable bridges. Hajek and Morris studied koto at the University of Illinois with Anne Prescott, former Associate Director of the Center for East Asian and Pacific Studies, who is now the Director of the Five College Center for East Asian Studies at Smith College. Robert E. Brown Center for World Music is an engagement program of the University of Illinois - School of Music, which promotes understanding and appreciation of the world's performing arts, primarily through active study of their performance. In stimulating greater awareness of the richness and variety of world music traditions, the center sponsors concerts, workshops, demonstrations, and lectures on campus, in area schools, and to the community at large. The center further promotes world music activities in Central Illinois through its online community events calendar. Please visit cwm.illinois.edu to learn more about our program.

Asian Studies, Area Studies, and the Future
The need for strong Asian Studies programs with outstanding research and teaching faculty to help students learn about Asia is as great as ever. Yet programs and faculty seem to be under threat from multiple directions: changing government funding priorities, new political leadership at the national and state levels, university administrators seeking to go in different directions, and faculty in other disciplines who question the value of area studies.
In this session, three faculty (each of whom studies a different part of Asia) will begin by offering some brief comments on the state of Asian studies and area studies today. We hope their comments will stimulate dialogue and discussion with the audience as we share our hopes and concerns for the future of Asian studies. Please join us for an interesting conversation with colleagues from across the Midwest about ways to highlight the value of Asian studies at our home institutions.
Discussants: Laura Miller, Eiichi Shibusawa-Seigo Arai Endowed Professor of Japanese Studies and Professor of Anthropology, University of Missouri St. Louis; Anne Hansen, Professor of History and Religious Studies and Director, Center for Southeast Asian Studies, University of Wisconsin Madison; Tim Liao, Professor of Sociology and Director of Center for East Asian and Pacific Studies, University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign

What Global Asia meant to Anthropology c. 1900
This lecture recounts an early and ultimately aborted alliance between anthropology and Asian Studies, a quixotic tale about an uneasy mix of idealism, economic pragmatism, and nascent imperialism as New York c. 1900 reimagined itself as a global hub. At the center of the story is Dr. Franz Boas (1858-1942), generally regarded as the founding ancestor of American Anthropology’s four-field approach and cultural relativism as its organizing principle. Less well known are Boas’ efforts to anthropologize American understandings of Asia which included an ambitious research project in China, collaboration with a missionary collector in Korea, and nascent ideas for work in the “Malay Archipelago.”
