    The many faces of Tsai Ming-Liang: Cinephilia, the French connection, and cinema in the gallery

    No full text
    The Malaysia-born, Taiwan-based filmmaker Tsai Ming-liang\u27s Visage (2009) is a film that was commissioned by the Louvre as part of its collection. His move to the museum space raises a number of questions: What are some of the implications of his shift in practice? What does it mean to have a film, situated in art galleries or museum space, invites us to think about the notion of cinema, spatial configuration, transnational co-production and consumption? To give these questions more specificity, this article will look at the triangular relationship between the filmmaker\u27s prior theatre experience, French cinephilia\u27s influence, and cinema in the gallery, using It\u27s a Dream (2007) and Visage as two case studies. I argue Tsai\u27s film and video installation need to be situated in the intersection between the moving images and the alternative viewing experiences, and between the global and regional film cultures taking place at the theatre-within-a-gallery site. While Tsai\u27s slow film aesthetics can be traced in relation to his prior theatre practice, his installation and film in the gallery are grounded in the belief that cinema needs to be resurrected in the museum. The interrelations between Tsai\u27s video installation and feature films show that they originate from, and are still part of, love for cinema. Tsai\u27s move to the museum space exemplifies the possibility for the future of cinema: it may lose its exclusivity of the collective experience in the movie theatre, yet still privileges the architectural situation of cinema

Number of annulets per segment three in IV± VI, ®ve to seven in VIII±XIII, XVIII, and ®ve in body segments after XVII. Setae 103 in V, 114 in VII, 125 in XX, 19 between male pores. First dorsal pore in 12/13. Clitellum XIV±XVI, smooth, saddle-shaped, length 10.18 mm, dorsal pores present, seta absent. Spermathecal pores four pairs in 5/6±8/9, distance between the pores 0.36 circumference apart. The pore areas of two posterior pairs light grey, contrasting to dark purplish blue of the head region. Female pore single, medio-ventral in XIV. Male pores paired in XVIII, latero-ventral, distance between the pores 0.23 circumference apart. Each pore C-shaped with swollen and folliculated edge surrounded with circular folds, which extend to the inter-segmental furrows of XVIII with XVII and XIX (®gures 4A, B). Genital papilla absent in both male pore and spermathecal pore regions. Preserved specimen dark purplish blue on dorsum, light grey on ventrum, greyish brown on clitellum. Internal characters Septa 5/6±7/8 thickened, 8/9 and 9/10 absent, 10/11 and 12/13 greatly thickened. Gizzard in VIII±X, round, white in colour. Intestine enlarged from XV.

Protandry: testis sacs paired in X, large, white in colour. Seminal vesicles paired in XI, smooth, light yellow. A pair of small vestiges of seminal vesicles in XII (®gure 4E). Prostate glands paired in XVIII, large, racemose, folliculated, extending anteriorly to XVII and posteriorly to XX. Prostatic duct slightly curved, wide at the distal end connecting to the prostatic gland and narrowed toward the proximal end connecting to copulatory pouch. A small bunch of white, parallel muscular ®bres connecting between the central portion of the copulatory pouch and the medio-ventral portion of body wall (®gure 4C). Locality and habitat The var. typica is apparently a night crawler and often found on paved roads in hill regions in the morning after rain. Based on coll. nos 1998-44 and 1998-67, this worm lives on wet mountain slopes, elevation about 200 m, where ground is composed of clay or clay mixed with gravel, and often covered with grasses.Published as part of Tsai, C. - F., Tsai, S. - C. & Liaw, G, 2000, Two new species of protandric pheretimoid earthworms belonging to the genus Metaphire (Megascolecidae: Oligochaeta) from Taiwan, pp. 1731-1741 in Journal of Natural History 34 on pages 1736-1738, DOI: 10.1080/00222930050122156, http://zenodo.org/record/474811
