The University of Chicago is pleased to celebrate the official opening of the Hong Kong Jockey Club University of Chicago Academic Complex | University of Chicago Francis and Rose Yuen Campus in Hong Kong with a series of events taking place on November 30-December 2, 2018.
Our new campus strengthens and deepens the University’s engagement in Hong Kong, serving as a regional hub for the University’s engagement in Asia and a destination for convening our academic, corporate, and government partners in the region. It will also facilitate important collaborations between faculty, researchers, and students, and foster connections to the University’s other Centers in Beijing, Delhi, & Paris. The Hong Kong Jockey Club University of Chicago Heritage Campus will engage the public through tours, cultural programs, and exhibitions highlighting the unique history of the Mount Davis site and demonstrating the University’s commitment to the support of and integration with the Hong Kong community.
The new Campus is located at:
168 Victoria Road, Mount Davis Hong Kong
Heritage and Community Programming Events
On Sunday, December 2nd, all facilities will be open to the public for tours and a series of conversations on the history and heritage of the Mount Davis site.
Agenda
| 9:30am | Facilities open for public exploration and docent-led tours Tours (approx. 30 minutes) run every 20 minutes starting at 9:40am. The last tour will begin at 4:40pm. A featured art exhibit will include a set of woodcut prints created by Chinese artists during WWII depicting wartime Yan’an. Presented to an American soldier as a token of appreciation by the Chinese, the prints were privately held by the soldier’s family until recently being released for public view. The prints were donated to The Chinese University of Hong Kong by Professors Patricia and Thomas Ebrey, both University of Chicago alumni, and the exhibit is curated by Josh Yiu, Director of the Art Museum at The Chinese University of Hong Kong. A featured literary exhibit will display the work of two University of Chicago professors who distinguished themselves in the difficult art of translation: David Tod Roy (1933 – 2016) and Anthony C. Yu (1938 – 2015). David Roy devoted nearly thirty years of his life to interpreting the vast and scandalous novel Jin Ping Mei or The Plum in the Golden Vase. Anthony Yu first learned about Xiyou ji from his grandfather as his family fled the Japanese bombardment. The first volume of his translation of the novel, Journey to the West appeared from the University of Chicago press in 1977 and the last in 1983. |
