What does this glass portrait tell us about the lady and the life of Republican women? 🕵️ A lot! The depiction of a woman reading literature indicates that educational opportunities became available to young women 👩‍🎓 during the Republican period. Moreover, her simple pigtail hairstyle 🎀 gained popularity among female students at the time. The watch on her arm ⌚ was a fancy imported luxury back then, implying her prosperous family background.
我們能從這幅玻璃畫中看出多少關於畫中女子及民國女性地位的信息？🕵相當多！女子讀書的形象印證了民國時期年輕女性接受教育的機會👩‍🎓逐漸上升，而她腦後的辮子🎀亦是當年備受女學生喜愛的髮型。女子手上的腕錶⌚在當年更是奢侈的舶來品，暗示她家境殷實。

Does ‘Nationalist Internationalism’ sound like an oxymoron to you? See how these two concepts are connected in a Chinese art exhibition discussed in Dr. Xing Zhao's lecture on 𝘕𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘵 𝘐𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭𝘪𝘴𝘮: 𝘐𝘯𝘵𝘦𝘳𝘯𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯𝘢𝘭 𝘌𝘹𝘩𝘪𝘣𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘊𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘦 𝘈𝘳𝘵, 1935! Held 87 years ago in 1935, the International Exhibition of Chinese Art in London was a cultural event of multi-layered significance. However, existing studies tend to argue that the exhibition was either nationalist or internationalist. Watch our lecture recording to learn more about the event and ways to read the impacts of a cultural event in depth!

「民族主義」和「國際主義」聽起來是否水火不容？來在「Nationalist Internationalism: International Exhibition of Chinese Art, 1935」講座錄影中和趙幸博士一起發掘民族主義和國際主義如何在一場中國藝術展覽上交錯！87年前於倫敦舉辦的「International Exhibition of Chinese Art」是一場具多重意義的藝術文化盛會，然而學界卻傾向於僅從民族主義或國際主義的角度分析這場意義深遠的展覽。觀看講座錄影，多角度解構這座近代中國藝術上的里程碑！
