講座摘要：

In 2016, Taiwanese activist, artist, and academic Kao Jun-honn 高俊宏 started his long-term Topa (大豹社 Great Leopard) project. The focus of his investigation is the aborigine Atayal Topa Tribe of Taiwan and the descendants of these colonized people who were expelled from their land and nearly annihilated by serial colonialization that swept the island. 

Based on long-term fieldwork and on-site investigation Kao recreates the “Great Leopard Incident” documented in the advance of the frontier guard line between 1903 and 1907. Kao traces the ruins of frontier guard posts that were instrumental for separating the “savages” from the “civilized”, colonizing the Topa tribe’s space, and expanding the economy of the Japanese colonial government in Taiwan. The frontier guard system was subsequently governed by the Chinese Nationalists under Chiang Kai-shek during the white terror era. After martial law was lifted, colonialization of indigenous land shifted to establishing postmodern entertainment parks for the urban middle class driven by coercive environmentalism and neoliberal policies. 

Kao’s Great Leopard Project has resulted in a documentary film, two book volumes, video works, topographical maps of the Topa river basin, installations of archives etc. Kao himself, however, is less concerned with these artifacts as such but with the agency and the possibility of art and how it can intervene into and engage with reality in general and with global capitalism and postcolonial struggles in particular. Taking his documentary Llyong Topa 拉流斗霸 (2021) as the point of departure, Professor Irmy Schweiger will argue that Kao successfully employs art activism to reinvent historical colonial sites and to push for transitional justice and social change.
