Notes

  • Published in conjunction with an exhibition at Singapore Art Museum, March 12-June 26, 2011.
  • Negotiating Home, History and Nation presents the work created over the last two decades, by fifty-four seminal practitioners in contemporary art from six Southeast Asian countries. This extensive survey gives audiences the opportunity to form a cogent picture of the diverse realities and threads linking Southeast Asia and its art through inquiries in to topics such as nation building, urbanisation, and religious and gender discourse from an Asian perspective.--Excerpt from exhibition short guide
