Body Observed, How Does
the Artist See the Body?
"I know
a woman lovely in her bones,
When small birds
sighed, she would sigh back at them...
My eyes, they
dazzled at her flowing knees;
Her several
parts could keep a pure repose
Or one hip quiver
with a mobile nose
(She moved in
circles and those circles moved.)" ---I Knew
a Woman by Theodore Roetheke

Tribute to the Kabuki actor Onoe
Baik¯o VII upon his being named one of Japan's Living
National Treasures. Baik¯o, a noted onnagata (female
impersonator) is seen in footage filmed in 1969 during the
Grand Kabuki's U.S. tour, playing the role of the courtesan
Agemaki in the play Sukeroku, first in costume onstage, then
in street clothes in the television studio. In a series of
still photographs, he is seen coaching his eldest son Kikunosuke
in the role of Sagami, General Kumagai's wife. The final segment
of the program shows Baik¯o in the role of a woman abandoned
by her lover, filmed onstage in the 1960s in an extended excerpt
from The salt gatherer, an 18th-century Kabuki play based
on a 14th-century N¯o drama.

"This stylish and moving portrayal
of gays of Asian descent in Australia explores the relationship
between race and sexuality. ... probes the uncomfortable reality
of racial stereotyping and discrimination in the gay world through
interviews with Asian men who talk frankly, and often humorously,
of their experiences living within a double minority. The filmmaker
himself tells a highly personal story of his journey from denial
to self acceptance."
