Pour la première fois, les œuvres de Matisse sont présentées au public chinois. L'exposition Matisse by Matisse a ouvert ses portes ce week-end au centre d'art contemporain UCCA à Pékin. Un évènement en partenariat avec le musée départemental Matisse du Cateau-Cambrésis dans le nord de France, plusieurs fois reporté en raison des frontières chinoises fermées et de la guerre en Ukraine. De notre correspondant à Pékin,Ce sont peut-être les prières de la chapelle du rosaire à Vence réalisée par Henri Matisse, ajoutés aux efforts de chacun mis bout à bout, à Pékin comme au Cateau-Cambrésis d'où proviennent l'ensemble des œuvres de cette première exposition consacrée à l'inventeur du Fauvisme, qui ont permis à l'évènement de se tenir.« C'est un petit miracle pour lequel on a travaillé d'arrache-pied pendant toute la période Covid », explique Victoria Jonathan, cofondatrice de l'agence culturelle Doors à Pékin. « C'est un projet qu'on a initié il y a quatre ans à la suite de l'expo Picasso organisée à l'UCCA déjà à l'époque. L'exposition Matisse devait avoir lieu il y a 18 mois, mais en raison du contexte international, de la fermeture de la Chine, du fait que les convoyeurs ne pouvaient pas accompagner des œuvres d'une valeur inestimable, on a dû décaler plusieurs fois l'exposition. »Victoria Jonathan poursuit : « Là, on est vraiment très heureux, car c'est l'une des premières expositions post "zéro Covid" en Chine, une période durant à laquelle la Chine a été fermée, durant laquelle ce qui a été appelé l'influence occidentale a été dénigrée. Alors que le pays se rouvre, que des expositions comme celle-ci peuvent se tenir, on sent une vraie soif de découvrir les œuvres d'artistes occidentaux en Chine », souligne-t-elle.À écouter aussiHenri Matisse comme un roman« On n'a pas souvent l'occasion de voir une telle puissance dans la singularité du trait et des couleurs »Preuve de cette appétence, depuis déjà plusieurs semaines les ventes de tickets en ligne fonctionnent plutôt bien. Les expositions d'artistes occidentaux ont manqué ces dernières années en Chine, explique Maurice qui se souvient encore de l'expo impressionniste qu'il avait vue au Musée d'art national dans les années 2000.« Il y avait beaucoup de monde », raconte ce jeune galeriste qui a fait des études aux beaux-arts de Lyon et qui s'est choisi un prénom français. « On était tellement heureux de découvrir Monet, Manet et les autres. C'est pareil aujourd'hui pour Matisse. On n'a pas souvent l'occasion de voir une telle puissance dans la singularité du trait et des couleurs. L'art chinois dans les musées à Pékin, c'est beaucoup l'encre, le noir et blanc. Pour découvrir les artistes contemporains, il y a les petites galeries. Mais ce serait bien, si on avait davantage d'échanges entre les grands musées chinois et étrangers. »Une simplicité dans les œuvres de Matisse appréciéeTableaux, textiles, sculptures... Près de 280 chefs-d'œuvre du musée départemental Matisse du Cateau-Cambrésis exposées sur un plateau de 2 000 mètres carrés permettent de suivre les pas de l'artiste et l'évolution de son œuvre. « J'apprécie sa quête de simplicité. C'est un créateur qui a su se renouveler pendant une époque très turbulente », lance un ingénieur spécialiste du traitement de données, en capturant sur son téléphone les dessins de visages de Matisse.« La simplicité du trait redonne vie à la personnalité de ses modèles », estime Xinka. « Pour moi, c'est un chercheur de plaisirs qui dans ses œuvres met en avant les bonheurs du quotidien. J'aime les couleurs, mais surtout les formes chez Matisse », poursuit cette modiste croisée dans l'espace de l'exposition consacré au travail autour du textile. Dix sections retracent la vie du peintre, la onzième évoque son influence sur la scène artistique chinoise. « L'influence de Matisse commence dans les années 1920 », indique Huang Jiehua, la directrice adjointe du département de publication et de recherches de l'UCCA. L'expressivité de la ligne et de la couleur impressionne beaucoup les artistes chinois. À ce moment-là, on traduit la peinture à l'huile comme une peinture occidentale. »Un intérêt pour Matisse qui perdureLe mouvement du 4-Mai de la « rénovation culturelle », la peinture à l'huile ramenée d'Occident par Liu Haisu de l'école de Shanghai, très impressionné par Matisse lors de son séjour en France. « La peinture à l'huile, une fois introduite en Chine, va suivre deux courants. Un courant moderne et un courant, disons, classique. Matisse était considéré comme un leader des modernes. Beaucoup de Chinois se sont intéressés à lui », rappelle Dong Qiang, professeur de littérature française à l'université de Beida.Un intérêt qui perdure chez les jeunes artistes, notamment pour ce qui est des découpages et le processus de création perçu comme une œuvre d'art, comme la scénographie de l'exposition d'ailleurs. Matisse souhaitait que les œuvres soient présentées sur des fonds blancs, mais les concepteurs de l'expo voulaient quand même ajouter des bandeaux de couleurs... à la Matisse. Comment ils ont fait ? Ils ont découpé le plafond.   « On a pris comme option de dire : "on va travailler un peu comme Matisse" », explique Pascal Rodriguez, designer. « C'est-à-dire s'il avait eu une grande feuille de papier. Et on s'est amusé – puisque l'exposition est couverte d'un plafond –, on a découpé dans chaque salle des formes qui auraient pu être découpées par Matisse. »Destination Shanghai« On m'a accordé une grande liberté, ce que j'ai pu faire ici, je n'aurais pas pu le faire en France où Matisse et Picasso sont des totems », se réjouit encore Pascal Rodriguez. Outre cette liberté et l'enthousiasme des premiers visiteurs, l'exposition bénéficie du soutien de nombreux sponsors, dont un constructeur chinois de véhicules électriques -Nio et Matisse, après Citroën et Picasso- et probablement d'une bonne étoile.Pour l'inauguration jeudi, certains ont croisé les doigts pour que les nus de Matisse ne froissent pas la censure. C'est passé sans souci. Après Pékin, Matisse by Matisse pourra donc se rendre à Shanghai le 3 novembre prochain, date de l'anniversaire de la mort du peintre et jusqu'au 18 février 2024. L'exposition est mise en avant par le service culturel de l'ambassade de France en Chine comme un symbole du renouveau des relations France-Chine qui fêteront l'année prochaine leurs 60 ans.  

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: My Assessment of the Chinese AI Safety Community, published by Lao Mein on April 25, 2023 on LessWrong. I've heard people be somewhat optimistic about this AI guideline from China. They think that this means Beijing is willing to participate in an AI disarmament treaty due to concerns over AI risk. Eliezer noted that China is where the US was a decade ago in regards to AI safety awareness, and expresses genuine hope that his ideas of an AI pause can take place with Chinese buy-in. I also note that no one expressing these views understands China well. This is a PR statement. It is a list of feel-good statements that Beijing publishes after any international event. No one in China is talking about it. They're talking about how much the Baidu LLM sucks in comparison to ChatGPT. I think most arguments about how this statement is meaningful are based fundamentally on ignorance - "I don't know how Beijing operates or thinks, so maybe they agree with my stance on AI risk!" Remember that these are regulatory guidelines. Even if they all become law and are strictly enforced, they are simply regulations on AI data usage and training. Not a signal that a willingness for an AI-reduction treaty is there. It is far more likely that Beijing sees near-term AI as a potential threat to stability that needs to be addressed with regulation. A domestic regulation framework for nuclear power is not a strong signal for a willingness to engage in nuclear arms reduction. Maybe it is true that AI risk in China is where it was in the US in 2004. But the US 2004 state was also similar to the US 1954 state, so the comparison might not mean that much. And we are not Americans. Weird ideas are penalized a lot more harshly here. Do you really think that a scientist is going to walk up to his friend from the Politburo and say "Hey, I know AI is a central priority of ours, but there are a few fringe scientists in the US asking for treaties limiting AI, right as they are doing their hardest to cripple our own AI development. Yes, I believe they are acting in good faith, they're even promising to not widen the current AI gap they have with us!" Well, China isn't in this race for parity or to be second best. China wants to win. But that's for another post. Remember that Chinese scientists are used to interfacing with our Western counterparts and know to say the right words like "diversity", "inclusion", and "no conflict of interest" that it takes to get our papers published. Just because someone at Beida makes a statement in one of their papers doesn't mean the intelligentsia is taking this seriously. I've looked through the EA/Rationalist/AI Safety forums in China, and they're mostly populated by expats or people physically outside of China. Most posts are in English, and they're just repeating/translating Western AI Safety concepts. A "moonshot idea" I saw brought up is getting Yudkowsky's Harry Potter fanfiction translated into Chinese (please never ever do this). The only significant AI safety group is Anyuan(), and they're only working on field-building. Also, there is only one group doing technical alignment work in China, the founder was paying for everything out of pocket and was unable to navigate Western non-profit funding. I've still not figured out why he wasn't getting funding from Chinese EA people (my theory is that both sides assume that if funding was needed, the other side would have already contacted them). You can't just hope an entire field into being in China. Chinese EAs have been doing field-building for the past 5+ years, and I see no field. If things keep on this trajectory, it will be the same in 5 more years. The main reason I could find is the lack of interfaces, people who can navigate both the Western EA sphere and the Chinese technical sphere. In many ways, the very conce...

O setor de varejo é um dos mais concorridos da bolsa brasileira. Diversas empresas disputam a preferência dos consumidores e, é claro, dos investidores. Via, Magazine Luiza e Americanas, por exemplo, são algumas das mais comentadas pelos analistas que passam pelos microfones da TC Rádio. Se ampliarmos esse horizonte para empresas listadas em outros países, um papel bastante falado - e muitas vezes elogiado - pela comunidade do TC é MELI34, os BDRs do Mercado Libre, que tem seus papéis listados na Nasdaq. Mas será que o momento atual de mercado é propício para o investimento na empresa? Quais são as vantagens competitivas que ela oferece? E os possíveis riscos para a tese? Como traçar uma perspectiva para os papéis no médio prazo? Para responder a essa e outras perguntas, o Value Tips conversou com Moisés Beida, trader e contribuidor do TC; Lucas Ribeiro, analista de ações da Kínitro Capital; Gustavo Pazos, analista de Equity Research da Warren; e Alexandre Constantini, head de research da Catarina Capital.

Está no ar mais uma edição do Mover Voices. Nessa semana, o podcast recebe Moises Beida, contribuidor do TC e trader no Cosmos Capital. Durante a conversa, ele lembrou o início da sua trajetória no mercado financeiro, falou sobre a relação entre profissão e família e detalhou o seu estilo de operar em ativos de renda variável. Sobre a conjuntura econômica atual, Beida vê o cenário desafiador no curto prazo. Ainda assim, enxerga oportunidades no mercado. Na visão dele, o mais importante é o investidor descobrir o seu perfil e ter disciplina para aumentar seu patrimônio a partir disso. Eleição, guerra na Ucrânia, popularidade do presidente americano, Joe Biden, e operações inesquecíveis também foram pauta da entrevista. BAIXE NOSSO APP

Ein al-Beida is a fresh water spring that used to be the main source of water for several Palestinian villages — until Israeli settlers moved in and claimed the spring as their own. On a cold Friday morning, two hundred Palestinians and Jews march together to the spring to take it back. Then the army shows up.Unsettled producer Max Freedman reports from the center of the action: what goes according to plan, what doesn't, and what happens next."The Birthday Party" was reported by Max Freedman, and produced by Max Freedman, Emily Bell, and Ilana Levinson, with help from Asaf Calderon. Music from Blue Dot Sessions. Visit www.unsettledpod.com to see Max's photos from his time in the West Bank, and all of Unsettled's previous reporting about the South Hebron Hills.

Confira uma edição especial com a repercussão da crise geopolítica que envolve Ucrânia e Rússia: pra onde vão as commodities? O que projetar como desfecho? O mercado brasileiro tende a se beneficiar? O gestor de recursos Carlos Castrucci comenta ao lado do trader Moisés Beida as perspectivas. Você acompanha também o discurso de Joe Biden sobre a crise atual, na íntegra.

Convidamos Leo Nonato e Moisés Beida, ambos membros experientes do TC, para uma análise da dinâmica atual e futura do câmbio. Eles também falaram sobre como o investidor precisa agir para não ser pego de surpresa com algum movimento súbito da moeda: será que ela está mais próxima de tocar os R$5 do que voltar para os R$4? É o que saberemos no Value Tips de hoje.

Nella quindicesima puntata della scorsa stagione, andata in onda il 19 maggio, si era parlato delle celebrazioni in Cina per il bicentenario della nascita del padre più nobile del comunismo, Karl Marx. Il presidente della Repubblica popolare cinese Xi Jinping aveva tenuto un discorso dedicato proprio a Marx, e ci eravamo chiesti come fosse possibile trasformare il marxismo in una teoria scientifica dello sviluppo.In realtà la soluzione trovata dal potere cinese è potentissima nella sua semplicità: bastava eliminare la lotta di classe. Una sorta di socialdemocrazia potenziata con il Partito unico al comando.Infatti, quando la lotta di classe, espulsa dal discorso politico ufficiale del più grande Stato comunista della storia, rientra in gioco, la risposta non è affatto accomodante, e i fatti di questo 2018 sono qui a dircelo.Ad agosto di quest'anno, 50 studenti appartenenti a gruppi universitari di ispirazione marxista e provenienti da tutta la Cina, si sono recati ad Huizhou, nel sud della Cina, per partecipare alla protesta di alcuni operai delle fabbriche locali. Alcuni di questi studenti sono stati arrestati e sottoposti a detenzione extragiudiziale.A settembre, il Financial Times ha riportato che la Beida, cioè l'Università di Pechino minacciava di chiudere la sua società marxista studentesca perché gli studenti praticavano il marxismo connettendosi con i lavoratori e organizzandoli. Il che suona non si sa se ridicolo o paradossale.Il 2 novembre, Reuters ha riportato che due studenti dell'Università di Nanchino sono stati aggrediti e portati via per avere guidato una protesta della loro università che si era rifiutata di riconoscere una società studentesca marxista all'interno del campus.Pochi giorni fa, le agenzie hanno riportato che sono almeno 12 i militanti studenteschi "scomparsi", nelle città di Pechino, Shanghai, Guangzhou Shenzhen e Wuhan. Questi militanti avevano solidarizzato e preso parte alle proteste di lavoratori in varie zone della Cina, soprattutto nel sud manifatturiero.Almeno cinque tra studenti e dottorandi sarebbero quelli letteralmente sequestrati all'università di Pechino, che forse è la più famosa università cinese, quella da cui sono più o meno cominciate tutte le rivolte del Novecento.Si pensa quindi che ci sia in corso una repressione coordinata, un giro di vite contro di loro da parte delle autorità di uno Stato che si richiama formalmente agli insegnamenti di Marx (e qui sta il paradosso). Va aggiunto che i corsi di marxismo-leninismo sono obbligatori nelle università cinesi, ma sempre più di frequente gruppi di studenti si trovano per sedute di studio collettivo extracurricolare, cioè fuori dall'insegnamento ufficiale. In pratica prendono in mano i testi sacri del marxismo senza mediazione dei sacerdoti dell'ortodossia di Stato e così esercitano una critica nei confronti della crescente diseguaglianza in Cina. Il potere vorrebbe dirti che il marxismo è una teoria dello sviluppo economico; gli studenti ci scoprono invece la critica della diseguaglianza e la lotta di classe. A che prezzo?PLAYLIST• Birdstriking – Magpie• MISS KO 葛仲珊 – 跟著節奏 - Segui il ritmo

The history of modern China is bound up with that of student politics. In Behind the Gate: Inventing Students in Beijing (Columbia University Press, 2010), Fabio Lanza offers a masterfully researched, elegantly written, and thoughtful consideration of the emergence of “students” as a category in twentieth-century China. Urging us to move away from a kind of historical view that takes the trans-historical existence of categories (like “students”), places (like cities or universities), and communities for granted, Lanza argues that it was only after and as a result of the May Fourth Movement and the events of 1919 that “students” emerged as a coherent notion connected with the specific spaces of the city of Beijing, Beijing University, and Tiananmen Square. The parts of the book successively introduce different sorts of space that were both produced by and helped generate the history that unfolds here, including everyday lived spaces, intellectual spaces, and political and social spaces. Lanza argues that new forms of everyday, lived practice in these spaces allowed student activism to emerge in the gaps where politics was separated from the state, and that the category of “students” as a signifier of a politics outside the state ended only with the government intervention ending the Red Guards in the late 1960s. In the course of this wonderfully readable history, we are offered glimpses into the classrooms and dorms of Beijing University, the bodily practices of early Beida students, and the streets of early twentieth-century Beijing.
