Episode Synopsis

In this lecture, Senior Curator Seng Yu Jin examines different types of artists' collectives and how collectivism influences the ways artists think about and make art. Listen as he traces the shifts in the Singapore art scene from "organisational collectivism" that sought to professionalise art, to "exhibition collectivism" that championed group exhibitions, and "collaborative collectivism" that created opportunities for artists to collaborate. This lecture was recorded live in August 2017 at National Gallery Singapore.Disclaimer: The comments and opinions expressed are those of the speaker/s, and do not represent the views of National Gallery Singapore.All copyright within this recording, without limitation, are retained by their respective owners.
