...ASIAN CUBISM 1910 ASIAN CUBISM 1910 YŌGA late 1800s YŌGA late 1800s NIHONGA 1898 NIHONGA 1898 Word Count: 790 Word Count: 790 Xueyan (Jessica) Wu Professor Hong Kal FA/VISA 2340 02 March 2015 ASIAN MODERNITIES EXIST IN “THE DEVELOPMENT OF ABSTRACT ART” Asian modern art has been largely neglected by Western audiences; a simple reference to Rita Gilbert’s “Living with Art” timeline confirms this notion. As such, Alfred H. Barr, Jr. neglected to include Asian modern art in his seminal 1936 map, The Development of Abstract Art, and consequently, I have provided a revision. Barr’s depiction epitomizes a European-dictated arrangement of art history, which excludes all versions of modernity not part of ‘his’ visual. I question the legitimacy of this omission. Modernity is not a singular definition, not solely manifested in one structured European interpretation. It is not necessarily residing in one place, but migrating and shifting, following the social conditions and traditions which surround different geographical contexts. One may contend that Asian modernist art does not belong within Barr’s space or that it does not fit any prescribed definition of modern art. There are valid reasons for this belief; the most widespread insisting it is merely a ‘copy’ of European modernity, and therefore, already included within Barr’s interpretation. This is untrue on many levels. Tatehata Akira writes in Why Cubism, that “…we must admit that a large part of Asian...

...increasing in size. Although there are only two species of elephants today, the Asian elephant or Elephas maximus and African elephant or Loxodonta africana, it is believed that a single ancestor, the Paleomastodon, evolved into an estimated 352 different elephant species2. Charles Darwin coined the term “natural selection”, which is “the preservation of a functional advantage that enables a species to compete better in the wild3”. For elephants, this functional advantage was the development of the trunk,...

...Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan and Sri Lanka. Immigrants from these countries from South Asia form the South Asian Americans. For many years, South Asia Americans have been trying to come together and form one community that will treat members from each South Asian country equally. According to the proponents of this formation, it will help them to address challenges that they face as one community and ensure that they all work towards their success as South Asian Americans. However, some member of South Asian Americans believe that they got raw deal in the formation of South Asian community as one or few countries have taken advantage of the term to refer to themselves and created different class status among the South Asian Americans instead of all being equal. According to the members of the South Asian Americans, the formation of class status has become a major impediment towards the achievement of success by the South...

...medical school community? Being Asian in the racially homogenous community of [small town], it was clear: I did not belong. When my father moved to South Korea after my 8th grade year, I was excited to spend summers there. I would finally belong. I was wrong. My excellent Korean language skills let me feign native status but my American mannerisms betrayed me. To Koreans, I was just American. At [university], a diverse community, I sought out Korean-Americans. But they questioned whether I truly understood the Asian-American experience due to my [predominantly white state] upbringing. To them, I was white. While these cultural rejections from my various communities were painful, I learned to recognize individuals as unique entities despite shared identity markers such as race. I vowed to always see the whole person; not just her external stereotypes. I have stayed true to this promise as a teacher in [New York City] and have seen the rewards in the form of fruitful relationships. I will continue to do the same with my patients. My struggles to belong taught me to work easily with a variety of people by adjusting my perspectives without sacrificing my values, and listening carefully to others. I built my own sense of belonging, which was more than my race. The extensive time I have spent in an array of communities and my experiences as an “outsider” gives me a unique outlook and cultural literacy, which will surely contribute to the development of culturally competent doctors...

...Running Head: Impact of Language on Asian American Health Impact of English Language Proficiency (ELP) on Health and Health Care Among Elderly Asian Americans Amoldeep Kaur Written Assignment #2 Epidemiology/Public Health 240 Winter 2013 The elderly population is the fastest growing population in the United States, and the number of immigrants that fall within this group has nearly doubled (Ninez, Hsys, & Cunnigham (2005). Foreign-born elderly account for 11% of the elderly population and this is expected to quadruple in size and reach 16 million by 2050 (Terrazas & Batalova, 2009). Currently most foreign born elders belong to Europe, but this is predicted to change in the upcoming years. Asians are among one of the fastest growing elderly population in the United States (Belozersky, 2005). Majority of Asian Americans are foreign born and report speaking a language other than English (Searight, 2009). Multiple languages and dialects spoken by the subgroups within the Asian American population bring more linguistic diversity and disparities to the United States. Furthermore, fastest growing minority in the United States has been stereotyped and inherited the label “model minority”. This label neglects the problems faced by the poorer and less successful member of this group, including the elderly, “they are hobbled by less blatant but more pervasive barrier of language and culture” (Dugger, 1992). Elderly immigrants find it more difficult to thrive...

...Wesley Yang discusses his own experiences as an Asian American, tying them into the larger picture of Asians functioning in American society today. Yang’s argument is that even though Asian Americans are one of the most successful ethnicities in the country, stereotypes that Asian Americans are exposed to affect the way other Americans view them. Because of personal bias and racism, human society fails to see other people for who they are and put too much emphasis on what they are supposed to or not supposed to be in America today. Stereotypes cloud people’s vision and judgment and keep some from achieving their goals because others have a pre-created idea for who or what one person of a certain ethnic background. Through community building and diversity, stereotypes can be put to rest so that a new understanding of who individuals really are can begin and success can be achieved. There is a common stereotype that Asian Americans are naturally smarter than everyone else on this earth. While some Asian Americans may be smarter than the average human, it is more than likely not a naturally occurring phenomenon. Asian Americans do not support or believe in the idea of intrinsic, or natural, intelligence. What they do believe in is that “constant practice of test-taking will improve the scores of whoever commits to it (535).” It’s not about natural ability, rather the amount of effort one is willing to put into a goal. Asian Americans are not born more intrinsically intelligent...

...Buddhism is a religion practiced by around 350 million people in the world. The practice of Buddhism is a journey that involves spiritual development, insight, and self-awareness. In fact, the word ‘Buddha’ means ‘one who is awake’. A Buddha is free from greed, hatred, and ignorance. The Buddhist religion teaches people to be fully responsible for their lives. Buddhists believe every action has a consequence, and change can be made. Buddhism differs from other religious groups in many ways. First, there is no almighty God in Buddhism. Buddhists do not believe in heaven and hell, or judgment day. The idea of sin does not exist in Buddhism. In addition, the relationship between a Buddha and his disciples is that of a teacher/student, not a God and his followers. Another difference between Buddhism and other religions is there is no savior concept. A Buddha does not have the ability to wash away impurities. They believe in cause and effect. There is an action, and a reaction. Also, the concept of “Hell” is different in the Buddhist religion. Buddhist does not believe that “Hell” is a consequence, or eternal damnation. Instead, it is one of the six realms of Samsara (the worst of three undesirable realms). Samsara is a fundamental concept of Buddhism. It is the ‘perpetual cycles of existence; or endless rounds of rebirth among the six realms of existence. Because Buddhists practice self-awareness, enlightenment, and responsibility they do not judge other religions...
