Collection includes 130 audio cassette tapes of Cantonese opera recordings and over 1,000 Cantonese opera scripts, many of which are in the gongche musical notation (工尺譜). All of these materials are well preserved by the donor.
The cassette tapes were commercially released in Hong Kong and Guangzhou, China from the 1970s through the 1990s. The scripts were not published, but are presented in a textual format that supplements the audio medium of the cassette tapes. The scripts are also presented in a notation widely circulated among professional performers, amateur singers, and musicians in twentieth-century community singing clubs (qushe曲社) in Guangdong, Hong Kong, and similar Cantonese opera associations in diaspora transpacific Chinese communities, from Southeast Asia to Melbourne, Havana, Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, Chicago, to Vancouver.
This donation complements MOA’s holdings of Cantonese opera, notably the Cantonese Opera Collection of about 800 stage objects, which is the largest known collection anywhere of early-twentieth century Cantonese opera stage materials. MOA also houses other archival materials, mainly textual records, photographs, and video recordings. The additional digitized archival materials here position the Museum of Anthropology at UBC as one of the largest and richest collections of Cantonese opera outside China.
A detailed inventory of this collection is in progress. Contact archives for more information.
Series consists of photographs documenting totem pole raising or restoration and other events held at the University of British Columbia (UBC) Museum of Anthropology (MOA).
In 1976 Jensen was hired by MOA to document the installation of totem poles into the new building. Jensen did not keep the negatives for these photographs (MOA did in this instance). She was hired again in 1981 to create a slide loop of images to be featured in the museum. After working with the museum, she felt welcome there and often gave talks or did training. Most of the subsequent photographs in this series were taken at public events such as book launches or pole raisings.
Series consists of photographs documenting Northwest Coast artists and their work throughout the 1970s and 1980s
Jensen first began to photograph works of art for Bud Mintz around 1973 when he was working for Langara College. Before he opened his gallery she would go to the College to photograph the jewellery and art he had for sale. Often the pieces had been purchased and he wanted to document what he had sold. Once he opened his gallery of Indigenous art in South Vancouver, Jensen would go to the gallery to take pictures.
Through her work with Bud Mintz Jensen met many Northwest coast artists, both Indigenous and non-Indigenous. As she developed relationships with many of these artists, she documented them and their work.
Some of the later photographs of artists were taken to accompany articles and other work that Jensen was doing at the time.
