Bae Bong-gi was brought to Okinawa from colonial Korea and forced to serve soldiers as a “comfort woman.” She walked day after day all over postwar Okinawa, never feeling settled. She passed away on October 18, 1991 without ever returning home. This October, her spirit will be back to life on the Noh stage as we memorialize the 35th anniversary of her passing. Based on House with a Red Tile Roof by Kawata Fumiko, Bae Bong-gi tells of trauma, pain, and endurance. It meditates on one survivor’s harsh experiences, but also on how all survivors’ unique stories might best be honored. Noh’s blend of austere staging and emotive richness draws the imagination deep into the characters’ inner lives, and is thus a uniquely powerful vehicle for sharing human experience.

This solo exhibition centers on Taiwanese contemporary artist Chen Ching-YAO's (ACC 2008) new series “War and Food” and takes “The Empire’s Fuel: Curry” as its theme. Britain’s expansion into India intensified in the seventeenth century, and curry became increasingly commercialized in the eighteenth. This history is itself a global history of colonialism, woven from spices and imperial expansion, dispersal and fusion.
