Please join us as Carlos Rojas, professor of Chinese Cultural Studies, Gender, Sexuality, & Feminist Studies, and Cinematic Arts at Duke University discusses the works of artist Song D**g. In Beijing-based performance artist Song D**g's "Touching Father" series (1997-2002), he uses technologically-mediated means of "touching" his father (for instance, projecting an image of his hand onto his father's face and body) in order to get closer to his father, from whom he had been physically distant while growing up.

Taking inspiration from Song D**g's work, this talk considers three films from China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan, each of which can be dated almost precisely to the same historical moment that Song D**g completed the first iteration of "Touching my Father." Like Song D**g, moreover, each of these works uses a focus on mediated physical contact to examine a set of conflicted relationships between different pairs of male protagonists.
