Missionary Cameras and Modern China in Global Imaginations
Visual technologies accompanied American missionaries as they undertook cultural, political and religious projects in Republican China through the first years of the People’s Republic. Their evolving visual practices and products, however, ultimately escaped the missionary mold and entered global imaginations, coloring American views of modern China alongside Chinese engagements with the world. In this talk, Joseph Ho explores intersections between image-making, contested identities and transnational ways of seeing – many of which transformed 20th century Sino-U.S. encounters on both sides of the lens.
