Telling Images of China is an exhibition of early modern and modern paintings from one of the world's finest collections of Chinese art, the Shanghai Museum. The thirty-eight figural works were selected by a team of curators, including Prof Shan Guolin and Mr Ling Lizhong of the Shanghai Museum, and Dr Shane McCausland of the Chester Beatty Library, Dublin, and include scrolls and albums by artists - both pre-eminent and obscure - active in the Ming (1368-1644) and Qing (1644-1911) dynasties, and the twentieth century. Each of these narrative or 'story paintings' retells or illustrates some kind of tale from a source such as folk and religious lore, oral and official history, poetry and literature.
The exhibition is mounted at the Chester Beatty Library, Dublin, in spring 2010.en300Telling Images of China: Narrative and Figure Paintings, 15th-20th Century, from the Shanghai MuseumMcCausland, ShaneLing, LizhongShan, GuolinotherNA

The art of mud building reaches its zenith in Djenné, an island town in the heart of West Africa’s Inland Niger Delta. Djenné’s elegant merchant houses and world-renowned mosque bear testament to an ancient history of trade and Islamic scholarship. The bold compositions and molten contours of its monumental architecture have earned Djenné an esteemed position among UNESCO’s World Heritage Sites. Creative mud building thrives where masons adapt traditional knowledge, building craft and magic to a modern, changing world. This exhibition explores the fascinating relationship between design and construction practices, architectural heritage and cultural identityhttps://eprints.soas.ac.uk/8815/1/Djenne_Phamphlet_Text_-_10-12-2009.docenDjenne: African City of Mud200Djenne: African City of Mud, RIBA Exhibition, March 3 - May 29 2010Marchand, Trevor H.J.otherNA

Gifts of Recognition is an exhibition drawing upon the School's remarkably rich but little known artistic collection. Concentrating on modern and contemporary art, it displays a selection of gifts and donations to the School, and constitutes a further stage in the Treasures of SOAS Project, designed to display and research the SOAS collections.
The exhibits include modern Japanese calligraphy, modern and contemporary Chinese paintings, including one by the famous Huang Junbi, and a remarkable "Moonlight" by the Korean Ki Chang Kim. Among a wealth of material from South East Asia, two striking paintings by Min Wae Aung will be exhibited, while South Asia will be represented by such father figures of modern Indian, Bengali and Pakistani art as Jamini Roy, Bashir Mirza and Jamil Naqsh. Paintings by the famous Iranian artist Nasser Ovissi, donated to SOAS in 2010, will also figure, while prominent and seminal artists such as the South African Billy Mandini and the Nigerian Iyoghiojie will provide examples of modern and contemporary African art. The exhibition will also include a small selection of modern European paintings associated with Asia and Africa by three remarkable women, Elizabeth Keith, Margaret Trowell and Barbara Robinson.enGifts of Recognition: Modern and Contemporary Art from the SOAS Collections300Gifts of Recognition: Modern and Contemporary Art from the SOAS CollectionsContadini, AnnaotherNA

We have all played some form of football at some point in our lives, but what is your favourite game and what toys did you use to play with? Do you know the games ames, lago, ayo, ekpe, okuto, cashew, locker, abas, ludo, tyre, ring or whot? Have you ever raced a bamboo car down the road?
In this exhibition, you see photos of games and toys taken by children in Ikakumo and videos of parents reminiscing about the games they used to play when they were small. You also see photos of the village where the children live and of the animals that people keep, photos of how the children help at home, and photos of what goes on in the village.
You can also find out how such photos and videos shot by the children help linguists with documenting a language and a culture, and how a linguist might put an exhibition and the materials to go with it into an archive.application/pdfhttps://eprints.soas.ac.uk/15966/1/IkakumoExhibition_GefterSalffner.pdfenEndangered Languages Week 2013; PICS Festival 2013 - Images Changing Society; Ikakumo Photography School Exhibition; West African Languages Congress3100Children documenting language and culture: Games and toys in IkakumoGefter, AsyaSalffner, SophieotherNA

This exhibition introduces a community of craftsmen who design, build and maintain Djenné's architectural heritage. The exhibition contents explore everyday challenges that masons encounter on their worksites and the tactics and strategies that they employ to control spiritual forces, manage culturally-diverse work teams, and creatively build with limited means and within a setting dominated by ideals of ‘timeless tradition’.
Following the recent political upheaval in Mali and the resulting collapse of tourism, foreign aid and the national economy more generally, Djenné’s masons are operating in a period of pronounced austerity and uncertainty. The exhibition documents this challenging period through the experiences, concerns and hopes voiced by five masons, each one representing a different generation.enMud Masons of Mali200Mud Masons of Mali, Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History, in the African Voices Hall Focus GalleryMarchand, Trevor H.J.Arnoldi, Mary JootherNA

The Ainu, the native people of Japan, were officially recognized as an ethnicity in 2008, after more than a century of discrimination and oppression which almost completely effaced their language, society and culture. Today several individuals and groups across Japan are involved in Ainu rights, cultural revitalization and diffusion. This photographic series explores contemporary Ainu identity and culture, focusing on representation and self-representation of the Ainu, both within institutions such as museums and outside, in everyday's life practices. The work, still in progress, started in 2009 and aims at raising questions about a culture in the process of changing and redefining itself.

A short documentary /travelogue set to music by Abdullah Ibrahim and in dialogue with J. M. Coetzee's fictionalised autobiographical trilogy, Scenes from Provincial Life. The images were taken during my travels in the Western Cape in 2012, when Prince Albert was celebrating its 250th anniversary: Coetzee's ancestor Zacharias de Beer is singled out in local histories as one of the town's founders. Scenes include the farm Maraisdal, where Coetzee completed his first novel, Dusklands, and the outskirts of Voelfontein, the family farm referred to in Boyhood and Summertime.application/octet-streamhttps://eprints.soas.ac.uk/21413/1/Karoo%20Country.m4venhttps://www.adelaide.edu.au/jmcoetzeecentre/events/list/2014/11/traverses-jm-coetzee-in-the-worldTraverses: J.

A retrospective exhibition of some 50 works, including early figural works and nudes as well as 'conceptual landscapes', by the contemporary Chinese artist Hong Ling (b. 1955), mounted at the Brunei Gallery, SOAS University of London, from 15 July-24 September 2016. The exhibition features paintings in oil and ink, as well as watercolours, drawings and photographs by the artist, dating from the 1970s to his student days in Beijing in the 1980s and up to 2016. The retrospective follows Hong Ling's retirement in 2015 from the faculty of the Central Academy of Fine Arts, Beijing, where he had taught oil painting practice since his graduation in 1987.en300Hong Ling: A RetrospectiveMcCausland, ShaneLiang, Tian S.otherNA

An exhibition featuring 34 international and UK artists who express their creativity beyond the bounds of convention. The exhibition will tour to eight venues around the UK.
The exhibition, which is co-curated by Laura Hamilton, will showcase artworks by historically renowned artists associated with Outsider Art and contemporary artists some of whom are self-taught and all of whom see themselves as facing barriers to the art world for reasons including health, disability, social circumstance or isolation. For UK artists, an open callout was made and many artists were discovered during a national series of Surgery Days managed by Outside In. Over half the artists in the exhibition are associated with specialist centres, groups and studios who play a vital role in nurturing and supporting their creative development.
Themes in the exhibition include radical missions in which artists have a passion for a particular subject or technique; intuitive responses to textiles employed as a non-verbal means of engaging with the outside world; autobiographical responses to the natural or urban environment; and folkloric or surreal perceptions of the world. Each of the artists’ individual backgrounds and paths of creative development occupy a different world to our more typical perception of the artist or craftsman. Most have never received any formal art training, although their practices may have been nurtured and encouraged in specialist centres or studios. Their work or creative impulses have been developed with independence, perceptual senses and an obvious lack of inhibition which is rarely aimed at a particular audience or marketplace. The artworks convey personal visions of the world, reveal inventive use of materials and vary in scale. From miniature sculptures carved into toothpicks and lead pencil tips, to vehicles made from recycled scrap, and from life size woven birch bark figures to a bridal headdress made from wrapped and embellished fabric.
For this exhibition, we also collaborated with ActionSpace, which supports artists with learning disabilities, to create a residency for Andrew Omoding. We commissioned social anthropologist Trevor Marchand to acquire an understanding of his creative practice through study and observation for one day a week over a period of 8 weeks. A documentary film and an essay provide insights into Omoding’s drive to make and he is also represented in the exhibition by two artworks.text/htmlhttps://eprints.soas.ac.uk/22164/1/index.htmlenRadical Craft: Alternative Ways of Making200Radical Craft: Alternative Ways of MakingMarchand, Trevor H.J.A Craftspace and Outside In Touring ExhibitionCo-curated by Laura HamiltonConsulting Anthropologist Trevor H.J.

Living Zoroastrianism provides an immersive experience of the rituals and practices of the oldest monotheistic religion in the world. The VR headset puts the visitor in the centre of the Yasna - the central ritual of the Zoroastrian faith which symbolises the journey of the soul.
The exhibition is part of Chouette Films’ work with the Multimedia Yasna Project (MUYA) headed by Professor Almut Hintze at SOAS and funded by the European Research Council. The heart of the project is to find innovative ways to document and preserve a tradition which is very much alive – although hidden from everyday view. The project aims to create an online platform where Study of Religions students and practicing Zoroastrians can engage with the religion in a detail never achieved before. Other highlights include sound experiences of Zoroastrians from Iran speaking about their lives, and a show of Zoroastrian artefacts and manuscripts from Iran and India.audio/mpeghttps://eprints.soas.ac.uk/31204/1/Hintze_BBC%20Radio%203%20Free%20Thinking%20-%20Living%20Zoroastrianism.mp3enhttps://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m00014qkLiving Zoroastrianism8570BBC Radio 3 Free Thinking.

The exhibition Scenes from the South, guest curated by Kai Easton of SOAS University of London and David Attwell of the University of York, marks the 80th birthday of Nobel Prizewinning writer J.M. Coetzee at the newly rebranded Amazwi South African Museum of Literature in Makhanda, Eastern Cape.
Exploring South-South relations in Coetzee’s life and work, inspired by his own project, ‘Literatures of the South’ at the Cátedra Coetzee, Universidad Nacional de San Martín in Argentina, the key aims of the project are biographical, cartographical and curatorial: to expand and diversify readings of South Africa’s most distinguished writer – a leading figure on the world stage who has lived in Australia since 2002 and worked and travelled extensively in South America – and concurrently to facilitate curatorial connections, collections, and knowledge exchange with partners who share a decolonising agenda in museum practice, the heritage sector, and literary and historical archives.

State-ments, an exhibition that draws on Julia Gallagher’s research on popular ideas of state buildings, has just finished a tour of five public locations around Johannesburg and Pretoria. The mobile exhibition features comments made by South African citizens on state buildings, collected by Gallagher during focus group discussions carried out in January 2019. These statements are set against abstract depictions of five buildings - the Union Buildings, the Parliament, the Constitutional Court, the Johannesburg Central Police Station and the Northern Cape Parliament. The aim of the exhibition was to reach wider audiences and provoke further discussions on state architecture. Many visitors left statements of their own. The exhibition was designed by South African architectural firm Counterspace. It was shown at Constitution Hill, Johannesburg, Mary Fitzgerald Square, Johannesburg, Jabulani Shopping Mall, Soweto, Church Square, Pretoria and the University of Johannesburg.en8510State-mentsGallagher, JuliaCounterspaceotherNA
