Gina Kim is a Postdoctoral Associate in Japanese Studies, specializing in Trans-Asian art history and visual culture, with a primary research focus on Manchukuo. After the Manchuria Incident in 1932, the imperial presence of Japan in Northeast China became immensely visible. Spanned 14 years until August 1945, Manchukuo marks the climax of Japan’s political, militaristic, and economic expansion amidst the era of the New Order. This talk will explore how the Manchukuo enterprise was manifested in a broader visual culture, encompassing art exhibitions, magazine illustrations, photography, and posters.
