美国俄亥俄州哥伦布市
City of Columbus, Ohio, USA
The Association for Asian Studies (AAS) is the world’s largest academic organization dedicated to Asian studies. Its annual conference is one of the most significant international meetings for scholars in Asian culture and arts, providing a global platform for cutting-edge research and deep discussions on diverse issues on history, culture, and contemporary issues of Asia. To promote diversity, the AAS Annual Conference does not have a fixed theme. It welcomes academic proposals from humanities and social sciences. Scholars and artists focusing on Asian studies are especially encouraged to submit interdisciplinary research and creative works. This open-topic format fosters intellectual exchange across disciplines, encouraging new perspectives and conversations on Asian issues within both academic and artistic communities.
The AAS 2025 Annual Conference will be held from March 13 to 16, 2025, in Columbus, Ohio, the U.S. The conference aims to enhance understanding and enrich teaching on Asia-focused topics through in-depth discussions on various regions of Asia. In June 2024, the AAS 2025 Annual Conference issued a call for proposals, inviting submissions from scholars worldwide for parallel session panels. Following a rigorous review process, the roundtable proposal entitled The Negative Image in Asian Cinema and Video Art by Tianle Huang, associate professor from School of Theater, Film and Television at Communication University of China, was accepted. We hereby invite scholars, artists, and researchers to submit relevant articles and join this session.

主题
亚洲电影与录像艺术中的否定性影像
“否定性影像”（negative image）不仅是一个学术或技术术语，亦表征出文化叙事中被忽视、被压抑、被边缘化的声音、行为与记忆，包含其内的非同一性元素呈现出意义不断流动与重构的场域。本次圆桌会议将聚焦亚洲电影与录像艺术中的否定性影像，关注亚洲视觉文化中的缺席、隐形与抹除现象及其深层社会文化意义。我们将分析艺术家如何在全球化4.0语境下以在地视角反思国家历史与全球地缘政治，质疑中心—边缘的二元对立，并在文化离散与身份漂移的多维话语中持续发挥作用。会议还将考察作品的地缘政治背景及其历史与物质性条件，讨论否定性影像与西奥多·阿多诺 （Theodor W. Adorno）否定性辩证法之关涉，探问这一悖论性概念如何改变对区域文化的认知，构建国家与洲际之间的有形或想象性联系，从而重新定位、想象、建构“亚洲身份”。
我们欢迎包括但不限于以下议题的文章：
1.后殖民语境中的否定性影像
2.创伤美学与视觉缺席在电影与录像艺术中的作用
3.视觉文化中“空无”与“隐形”的哲学解读
4.前卫艺术中的意义颠覆与否定性影像
我们期待通过此次讨论，激发更多关于否定性影像的深入思考和多角度分析，推动亚洲电影与录像艺术的研究与发展。
西奥多·阿多诺与否定辩证法
Theodor W. Adorno’s negative dialectics
Theme
Negative Image in Asian Cinema and Video Art
Negative image is not only an academic and technical concept but also represents the voices, actions, and memories that are overlooked, repressed, and marginalized within cultural narratives. The non-identical elements that it entails reveal a space where meaning is constantly fluid and reconstructed. This roundtable will focus on the negative image in Asian cinema and video art, exploring absence, invisibility, and erasure in Asian visual culture and their deeper socio-cultural significance. We will examine how artists, through a localized perspective, critically reflect on national histories and global geopolitics in the context of Globalization 4.0, challenging the binary of center and periphery, and contributing to the discourse of cultural diaspora and physical displacement.
The roundtable also investigates the geopolitical contexts of these works and their historical and material background, discussing the relationship between the negative image and Theodor W. Adorno’s negative dialectics. It will explore how this paradoxical concept can transform understandings of regional culture and create tangible or imagined connections between nations and continents, thereby re-locating, re-imagining, and re-constructing the “Asian identity.”
We welcome articles on, but not limited to, the following topics:
1.Negative image in postcolonial contexts
2.The role of trauma aesthetics and visual absence in cinema and video art
3.Philosophical interpretations of “emptiness” and “invisibility” in visual culture
4.Subversion of meaning and negative image in avant-garde
We hope that this discussion will inspire deeper reflection and multi-perspective analysis on the concept of negative image, promoting further research and development in Asian cinema and video art.
