Vol. 037: Sontag in Japan

by Ozaki Tetsuya

I visited the symposium with Susan Sontag on April 28 at ICC, but I was
a little disappointed by the event. Participating next to Sontag were
Kobata Kazue (translator and interpreter, who also translated Sontag's
Japan-only publication "In Our Time, In This Moment"), Kan Sang-jung
(political scientist), Isozaki Arata (architect), Asada Akira (critic), and
finally Tanaka Yasuo (prefectural governor of Nagano-ken) with a short
appearance at the end. With a total of four hours there was plenty of
time, but even Asada Akira's skills of summarizing and organizing
weren't enough to give the discussion more depth, so at the end the
audience was sent home somewhat dissatisfied.

(2) Event Pick of the Week
=================================================================

STAGE
The Company: "Kitchen Katha"

Neelam Man Singh Chowdhry from The Company is one of India's
representative choreographers. Inspired by western classical authors
such as Jean Racine or Federico Garcia Lorca, Chowdhry has been blending
and applying such ideas to the traditions of her native Punjab. "Kitchen
Katha" does in fact play in the kitchen of an Indian family, telling about
the life of Indian women. The kitchen is a symbol of the locked-up life of
women in India, but at the same time it's a place where many of their
memories are stored. There will be food prepared on stage and served to
the audience, so this event comes with delights not only for the visual,
but also for the senses of smell and taste.
