Signature Art Prize 2014



During one of my recent visits to the Singapore Art Museum, I set aside time to check out the Asia Pacific Breweries Foundation Signature Art Prize 2014. The triennial APB Foundation Signature Art Prize recognizes the most outstanding contemporary work by artists from the Asia-Pacific region in the last three years.

The Signature Art Prize 2014 exhibition held at the Singapore Art Museum features the artworks of the 15 finalists which were chosen from a total of 105 nominated artworks from 24 countries and territories from the Asia-Pacific region. The 15 finalists were selected by a panel of five eminent judges based on the following evaluation criteria:
- strength of the ideas and the concept
- creative use of medium, material or technique
- artistic insight and interpretation
- imagination and originality

There are a couple of interesting artworks that have caught my attention during my visit to the exhibition. Admittedly, I find contemporary art challenging to understand at times. Thankfully, catalogues are available to provide visitors with insights to better understand each of the selected artworks.

Here are some of my favourite artworks from the Signature Art Prize 2014 exhibition:

Robert Zhao Renhui's Eskimo Wolf Trap often quoted in Sermons.

Robert Zhao Renhui's Eskimo Wolf Trap often quoted in Sermons invoked me to think about the relationship between humans and the snow wolf, the predator and the prey. The installation looked pure and minimalist, yet it was rather thought-provoking. I started to imagine how a snow wolf would cut its own tongue as it is lured by the blood-stained knife and starts to lick the blade.

Nguyen Trinh Thi's Unsubtitled.

Nguyen Trinh Thi's Unsubtitled somehow brings its audience to immerse into a very close experience almost face-to-face with the 19 artists who each performed the acting of eating a food item of their choice, stating their name and identifying what they had just eaten. The freedom of expression cannot be taken for granted. I thought that the use of life-size video projections against a dark setting works out really well. A very creative choice of medium and way of presentation.


Liu Jianhua's Trace.

Liu Jianhua's Trace had unconsciously made me felt its powerful impact when I walked past it while walking up the museum's central stairwell. This site-specific sculptural installation harmoniously bridged three different zones. As I walked up the stairway, I felt beckoned to imagine the nuances of tonality, shade, texture and depth that black ink can take. I like the idea of turning inkflow into sculpture. This somehow forced me to look at black ink and the Chinese art of calligraphy in a different way.

Choe U-Ram's Custos Cavum (Guardian of the hole).

Choe U-Ram's Custos Cavum (Guardian of the hole) intrigued me with its use of machinery and robotics to realize a imaginary creature that originated from a myth written by the artist. I cannot help but to take many looks of it to figure out how this machine-like artwork works.

Arin Rungjang's Golden Teardrop.

Arin Rungjang's Golden Teardrop was one of the artworks that attracted my interest. The  title of the artwork alludes to a traditional egg-yolk dessert that was first created in mediaeval convents in Portugal and introduced to the 17th century Siamese court by a Portuguese-Bengali-Japanese woman. I like the narrative story-telling character of the documentary video which gave me a glimpse to some of the key historical events and cultures that have shaped the Southeast Asian region.

The sculpture formed by almost 6000 brass teardrops suspended from a large frame made of timber salvaged from a traditional Thai house and steel beams from an old factory somehow formed an interesting backdrop for me to reflect as I watched the documentary video that was framed through Thai history.

*****
The above-mentioned are my favourite artworks from the exhibition, not in any particular order. I was eager to support my favourite artworks. The good news is that voting for our favourite arwork has began on 14 Nov 2014. Members of the public can vote for their favourite artwork from the 15 finalists. The finalist artwork with the highest number of public votes will win the People's Choice Award, which is one of the Asia Pacific Breweries Foundation Signature Art Prize 2014 awards. Voters can vote once a day from 14 Nov 2014 until the votes close at 11:59 p.m. on 21 Jan 2015. Voters stand to win prizes too.

A glimpse of Art Garden 2013 through the eyes of an adult

Walter by Dawn Ng.

Once again, Art Garden, the contemporary art fun for children is here. Held at the Singapore Art Museum, at 8 Queen Street, Art Garden is a delightful way to acquaint children with contemporary art.

Yearning to experience art through the eyes of children, I visited Art Garden on 18 May 2013. On the way to SAM at 8Q, Walter the colossal bunny is sure to attract the eyes of almost everyone. Walter seemed to be wondering why people were so delighted to take photographs with him.



As I approach SAM at 8Q, the exterior felt empty. Perhaps it was because I had visited the museum too early?

The installation that is an assembly of 134 boxes greeted me. The installation, Landscape in the Box, explores the beauty of landscapes in Singapore. I looked out for the box Anticipating the Future while Connecting with the past - Princess Elizabeth Estate by Woo Jiekai. This installation of 134 boxes seemed more intriguing to the adults.

Sandra Lee's The Enchanted Garden City.


The excitement truly began when I stepped into The Enchanted Garden City by Sandra Lee. I had thought that the children were in their bed enjoying their weekend rest. I was wrong, many of them were seen enchanted by the whimsical enchanted garden city. The children were charged with lots of energy. They were having fun! Here, children could draw their own version of an enchanted garden city and have their drawings projected onto one of the walls.

As I walked about The Enchanted Garden City, I noticed localized icons such as the kampong-style zinc-roof-top house and more. Through the eyes of children, there are joys in the simple things. Contentment is an attitude that makes children feel blessed whatever the circumstances could be.

Sandra Lee's The Enchanted Garden City.


I was tempted to dance away with the children. Before I have to work hard to contain the temptation, I headed for Sun Yu-li's Love. Revolve the World displayed at level four of the museum's building. I have a liking for Sun Yu-li's sculptures. It was a different experience getting acquainted with his collaborative work with 750 students. Maybe it takes a contemplative child to see the connections that exist in the universe?

Sun Yu-li's Love. Revolve the World.

My favourite work was Stellar Cave II by Julien Salaud. From the first glimpse, I could feel the artist's interest in astronomy. It was simply stunning and beautiful in its own way. Children could learn patience by checking out the activities in the adjacent room where they could make images out of screws and threads. If I was a child, I would lie on a mat placed on the floor and marvel at the beauty of this work as if I was a child from the prehistoric period. Life can be so amazingly!

Stellar Cave II by Julien Salaud.

The Incredibly Magical Expanding Room by Mojoko and Shang Liang was comparative less interesting than their work, Reactive Wall, that was showcased at Art Garden 2012. Maybe I had been over-stimulated by the Reactive Wall last year.

The surprise element was most present in Stéphane Blanquet's Les rêves engloutis – Glossy Dreams in Depths. This work exposed the viewer to unfamiliar situations. I was told that the underlying suggestion is that we can learn to overcome our fears and our fixed expectations. Even when things turn out different from the expected, life can be an adventure that is filled with surprises. If I were a child, I would be reminded by this work to be brave to face what may lie ahead.

Stephane Blanquet's Glossy Dreams in Depths.

After a series of adventures braving the unexpected, visitors to Art Garden could take a seat and enjoy a selection of local short films and animation in the film screening room.

To end the visit with an experience that would stretch one imaginations, head for Vicente Delgado's Around the Day in Eighty Worlds. Take a closer look and some magic may take place as we see extraordinary images out of the ordinary. If I were a child, I would have cried out in wonder!

Vicentre Delgado's Around the Day in Eighty Worlds.

If there is a place to stretch a child's imagination, Art Garden will be one of these. For the adult, visiting Art Garden is an interesting exercise to see the world with a different pair of eyes.

From the private collections: Weight of History

Xu Bing's The Living Word.


This is the art show that I have been waiting for, The Collectors Show: Weight of History. It is essentially an art exhibition that presents contemporary artworks from private collections in Asia. Thanks to this exhibition, members of the public like myself could have the opportunity to view and experience the artworks owned by private collectors.

This exhibition has an interesting title: Weight of History. Earlier this year, during an Artist Presentations session, I learnt that this exhibition examines through the eyes of contemporary artists how the past has shaped present day societies. This show also presents how the artists engage with and evaluate their local traditions and culture in the context of a globalized world.



I visited The Collectors Show: Weight of History for the second time. Interestingly, some of the works resonated more strongly with me during my second visit than my earlier first visit.

I learnt that joining a guided tour is one of the best ways to enjoy this art show even when we do not know the historical context behind the art works. Thanks to the well-trained guides who have done the research, visitors like ourselves can have an easier viewing experience by simply responding to the artworks.

Just be awed
The first artwork that has gotten me to look with awe was Xu Bing's The Living Word (2001). See how the Chinese character 'bird' pictorially represent this winged animal and witness how this Chinese character transform!

Xu Bing's The Living Word.

The conceptualisation behind Xu Bing's The Living Word.


When I walked past Montien Boonma's Nature's Breath: Arokhayasala (1995), I could not help but to experience a sense of reverence. The aromatic scent from this work somehow woke up my olfactory and visual senses. The title of this work, Arokhayasala, symbolizes a place where sickness does not exist. How blessed we would be to live in a world where health is a given.

Montien Boonma's Nature's Breath: Arokhayasala.
Disaphol Chansiri Collection.

Look beyond the superficial beauty
In this art show, many of the artworks seem to urge its viewers to look beyond the apparent beauty. Aisha Khalid's Appear As You Are, Be As You Appear (2010) appeared to be a beautifully weaved piece of jacket made of velvet and silk. However, once we were to look beyond the surface, we would see that the inside of the jacket is lined with the steel needles. These needles remind us of the painstaking efforts that are required to produce these fabric.

Mimi Brown Collection.

Of Okinawan origin, Yuken Teruya redesigns the patterns of the bingata kimono, an Okinawan style of kimono, and the end result is his Bingata Dye on Linen (2002). This kimono looks beautiful on first glance. With a closer look, one is reminded of the history of Okinawa.

Tatsumi Sato Collection.

Similarly, Kawayan de Guia's Horse which comprises 700 celluloid trumpets is not the docile horse sculpture that it appears to be. Go and find out more about what this artwork seeks to communicate.

Michelangelo and Lourdes Samson Collection,


Together we ponder about cultural identities
A few of the artworks in this art show explore the theme of cultural identities. Tony Albert's A Collected History (2002 - 2010) resonated with me perhaps due to my curiosity with the culture of the indigenous Australians. My personal response to this work is that I could not help but feel sad to reflect how the Aboriginal Australians have been alienated by colonialism.

Tony Albert's A Collected History.
Installation made up of hundreds of reworked objects, sculptures and paintings; original paintings and drawings;
and three unique artworks by Vernon Ah Kee, Shane Cotton and Arthur Pambegan, Jr.
Peggy Scott and David Teplitzky Collection.

Gonkar Gyasto's Excuse Me While I Kiss The Sky (2011) seemed to be exploring the struggle for cultural identity that the artist has to grapple with. The artist is of a Tibetan heritage. Yet he was brought up in a Chinese socialist society with a fair level of exposure to globalization. In Excuse Me While I Kiss The Sky, we see a Buddha figure adorned with thousands of colour stickers that symbolizes the contemporary popular culture.

There is a place for humour 
History can be amusing and humourous. There are some works in this art show with a witty sense of humour. One of these is Vertical Submarine's Sun Tzu's Art of War (Armchair Philosophy) (2010) from Tay Yu Jin's Collection. This work critique the people who claim to be knowledgeable but do not have direct experience. This work consists of an armchair with its back being shot with 64 arrows. Did you feel the impact of this work? Whatever it is, please know that art can be entertaining while being enlightening.

Evoking our memories of the past
It was difficult to miss Tu Wei-Cheng's The Emperor's Treasure Chest I (2011). The musical sounds from this work immediately caught my attention when I walked into the Singapore Art Museum. When I took a glimpse of it, this artwork seemed to be a valuable antique. On closer inspection, this work is created using both original and counterfeit antique objects which were assembled together. The shadow-play section reminded me of Wayang Kulit (shadow puppets) shows.

***
There are many other noteworthy artworks on display in this art show. If you have only one hour to spend at this art show, I would recommend that you time your visit so that you can join one of the guided tours.

This is the art show to get a glimpse of the kind of contemporary artworks that private collectors would be keen to collect. One of the motivations to attend this art show is that, unless I know the private collectors themselves, it may be my limited chance to see these works in public ever again in my lifetime.

President's Young Talents 2013



A day ago, I visited the Singapore Art Museum with the main intent of visiting The Collectors Show: Weight of History. Incidentally, since I was at the Singapore Art Museum anyway, I wandered into the spaces exhibiting the new commissions of Singapore's most promising local artists and I was pleasantly captivated by the many interesting elements of surprise that I have encountered.

If you have guessed it, I had found my way into the President's Young Talents exhibition featuring works by Boo Junfeng, Liao Jiekai, Zaki Razak, Grace Tan, Ryf Zaini and Robert Zhao Renhui.


Let us seek
Ryf Zaini's work, Unveil the curtain to the window with no ledge, immediately captured my attention after I have managed to discover its exact location. The artist's idea of using lamps and switches as metaphors for enlightenment, information dissemination and circuits of power had made quite a positive impression on me. I have found it fun to close my eyes and practically listen to the work! It was an unexpectedly delightful and different experience listening to this work. 

This work brings an especially rewarding experience to visitors who are curious enough to find its location. I wonder if the artist was attempting to make his viewers experience the quest for enlightenment? Seek out this interactive work by Ryf Zaini.

Ryf Zaini's Unveil the curtain to the window with no ledge.

Observing Nature
Nearby, even if this work may be placed in a very dark space, it is a must for nature lovers to experience Robert Zhao Renhui's The Quieting and the Alarming. Does it remind you of one of those nocturnal excursions to the wild parts of Singapore?

Robert Zhao Renhui's The Quieting and the Alarming.


There's beauty in monotony
Grace Tan's refuge made from polypropylene loop pins somehow gave me optimistic vibes. She "transformed commonplace industrial items into a work of organic beauty". Beautiful it is indeed, yet it reminded me that out of the museum's spaces, we could pay more attention to the beautiful creations of Nature as well.

Grace Tan's refuge.


A site-specific work by Liao Jiekai
If I could knock down a wall to gain a direct access to Liao Jiekai's 16mm film installation, Brothers' Quarters, I wonder how it would have been. Anyway, I learnt that the space that was formerly known as the Brothers' Quarters of the old St Joseph's Institution school building was deemed to be historically and culturally 'insignificant'. The Brothers' Quarters was literally knocked down while the rest of the school building was preserved and designated a national monument. This piece of previously unknown information surprised me. How do we define what is deemed worthy of preservation? I suppose this was one of the issues that Liao Jiekai attempts to explore. 

The fragility of the 16mm film also reminded me of the fragility of our memories. If we choose not to remember, then our memories will eventually erode with time.

This is not Liao Jiekai's work but is simply a floor plan of the former St Joseph's Institution.

Viewing history
Boo Junfeng's Mirror was inspired by the artist's visit to Bukit Brown Cemetery, "where exhumation of over 3000 graves are taking place for the construction of a new highway, cleaving the old burial ground into two". This work is essentially presented as a two-channel high definition video. The video presents two narratives. I learnt that the converging and the diverging of the two narratives explores the impact of building a road across the cemetery on our collective history. This film is also said to be intended to reiterate the point that our present and future are inextricably tied to our past.

Admittedly, I have found this work more challenging to comprehend. What is the artist trying to communicate? Maybe it is because I have not been sufficiently exposed to the art of film-making? Nevertheless, the images of the beautiful foliage of the Bukit Brown Cemetery simply urged me to watch this video at least for three consecutive sittings.

The beauty of Bukit Brown Cemetery.
A snapshot of Boo Junfeng's Mirror.

The days of Ten Year Series
While I was at the exhibition, I realized I had not seen the works of Zaki Razak! It turned out that his work is located at the Front Lawn of the museum, inside a tent. It turned out that Zaki Razak's Revising Art: The Ten Year Series is a series of ten lecture-performances. In this tent, Zaki Razak and his collaborators will facilitate a series of sessions related to learning and art education.

If you were to ask me, I cannot remember going through any Ten Year Series when I was taking art-classes during my Secondary School years. Yet, I remember having to go through pages and pages of Ten Year Series for the subjects such as Biology, Chemistry, Mathematics and more. How amusing it would be to have a Ten Year Series to revise art.

During my recent visit, I only had the time to watch a video-recording of a lecture on public speaking. I find the idea behind this participatory and inter-disciplinary work to be interesting. I hope to revisit this once again.

Look out for this tent at the front lawn of the museum. 

***
Please also view the video interviews of the six artists. These interviews lend a glimpse of the processes behind the artists' works. When I was viewing a video interview of Zaki Razak, his opinion that "the root of one's idea belongs to the Divine" somehow resonated in me.

This is the exhibition to go for to get a glimpse into the minds of a few of Singapore's most promising artists.

Night Festival 2012: Highlights to enjoy within an hour

Image courtesy of National Heritage Board.

When the sun sets and the skies darken these upcoming two weekends (24 Aug and 25 Aug, 31 Aug and 1 Sep 2012), people in Singapore can expect to experience the hype and extravaganza of spectacular aerial performances, music, dance and installation artworks at the heart of the Bras Basah.Bugis precinct.

This year's Night Festival will be bigger than the previous night festivals. Stakeholders and partners from the Bras Basah.Bugis Arts and Heritage precinct community have come together to make this festival a success.


As arts and culture spill onto the streets at the Night Festival these two weekends, get ready to contain the splendor and excitement with your open-hearted presence.

There are numerous fascinating performances and events at this year's Night Festival. The festival stretches from Cathay building to Armenian Street. With such a wide spectrum of activities to choose from, here are some of the highlights to consider if you should only have an hour, or less, to spare this weekend.

Brian Gothong Tan is one of the local contemporary artists to look out. I had the pleasure to see some of his previous art installations and found him to have a playful sense of humour.

This facade projection combines film, motion graphics and experimental animation, Brian's complex yet playful work, with soundscapes by award-winning composer Philip Tan. Suitable for all ages if you are ready to go for a colourful and surreal journey. This is a positive example of Night Festival 2012 providing commissions and platforms for local artists and musicians to showcase their art.

Watch how the puppets come alive to tell a story with a Singapore flavour in this performance. Please be prepared to sit on the floor for ten minutes to get a better view of the puppetry performance.

If shadow puppetry interests you and there is more time to spare, you may also like to join the shadow puppetry-making workshop that is nearby, from 8 p.m. - 10 p.m.

A gentle reminder:
There are so many other interesting programmes that are noteworthy to attend in this year's Night Festival such that visitors are likely to be carried away and spend more than an hour at the festival.
