I will present my paper “Performing Collaborative Public Counter-Memory: The Jeju 4.3 Exhibitions and Memorials” at the 2023 American Society for Theatre Research (ASTR) conference which will take place from November 9 to 12 in Providence, RI. Through a close examination of the recent Jeju 4.3 exhibitions and memorials at the Jeju 4.3 Peace Memorial Hall (which is housed in the Jeju 4.3 Peace Park), the Jeju Museum of Contemporary Art, and the Gwangju Museum of Art, I analyze how the exhibitions and memorials document, remember, and represent the Jeju 4.3 and how these works resist the official records, performing a kind of collaborative public counter-memory against state cover-ups and unempathetic accounts, centering demands for change in commemoration practices and transforming the Jeju 4.3 into a catalyst for political and social change.
