SUMMARY:Curator Tour | Living Pictures: Photography in Southeast Asia
DESCRIPTION:[FINAL] Curator Tour | Living Pictures: Photography in Southeast Asia \nSat 19 Aug | 11am – 12pm | Meeting Point: Singtel Special Exhibition Gallery\, Level 3\, City Hall Wing | Free\, registration required: https://bit.ly/LP_19Aug \nUnpack the curatorial narratives of “Living Pictures: Photography in Southeast Asia” and listen to behind-the-scenes stories with curators in this final curator tour of the exhibition.\nUncover the medium’s history in the region\, and how it contributed to the development of Southeast Asian visual culture through selected highlights from the exhibition. \n—\nAbout the Exhibition \nPhotographs surround us every day and everywhere. They shape the way we see the world and the way we see ourselves. Explore the changing roles of photography in Southeast Asia—from its beginnings as a tool of European exploration to the “performance” of studio portraits; from the incomplete realities of war to the rise of fine art; and finally to the memes and selfies that saturate social media today.

SUMMARY:Proyek Bendera (Flag Project): Artist Talk and Participatory Workshop by Arahmaiani
DESCRIPTION:“Proyek Bendera” (Flag Project): Artist Talk and Participatory Workshop by Arahmaiani\nSat 5 Aug | 1.30 – 4.30pm | Supreme Court Wing\, UOB Southeast Asia Gallery\, Level 3\, Dalam Southeast Asia | S$5\, registration required: https://bit.ly/ProyekBendera\n\nImportant note: Participants are advised to prepare for approximately 45 minutes of walking and carrying of flags\, which will include stair climbing\, and to dress in comfortable attire.\n\n—\nArtist Arahmaiani is widely known for her performance and installation works that address social\, political\, religious and environmental issues. Beginning in Yogyakarta in 2006\, “Proyek Bendera” (Flag Project) is a series of nomadic\, community-based and collaborative performances initiated by Arahmaiani which incorporate colourful flags with Jawi words inscribed onto them. The words on the flags reflect ideas that originate from diverse societies and cultures which draw attention to the impermanence of the physical world as well as the importance of having a sense of belonging and love\, as well as local knowledge and wisdom.\n\nIn many iterations of “Proyek Bendera”\, Arahmaiani worked closely with local communities to discuss ideas and visions based on particular problems that they face\, and helped to inscribe these concepts onto the flags used for their collaborative performances. They demonstrate her commitment to engage in transcultural and interreligious dialogues that often intersect with environmental concerns.\n\nThe exhibition “The Neglected Dimension” explores Arahmaiani’s practice alongside other artists from Indonesia who have reimagined the potentialities of Arabic calligraphic writing and expressions of spirituality.\n\nJoin us for an exciting programme as the artist shares more about “Proyek Bendera” and her work “Crossing Point” in the exhibition\, followed by a workshop. The workshop will culminate in a collaborative performance using the artist’s flags.\n\n—\nAbout the Artist\n\nArahmaiani is globally known for her performance and installation works that boldly address social\, political\, religious\, and environmental issues. Born in 1961 in Bandung\, Indonesia\, in the 1980s she established herself as a pioneer in the field of performance art in Southeast Asia. Her work has dealt with issues that include contemporary politics\, violence\, critique of capital\, the female body\, and in recent years\, her own identity—although she identifies as Muslim\, she also mediates between Islamic\, Hindu\, Buddhist\, and animist beliefs.\n\nShe often uses her public presence to raise awareness about violence in general\, particularly violence or discrimination against women in Indonesia’s Islamic society. Since the September 11 attacks\, she has combined her critical attitude towards Islam with a fight against its general stigmatisation. She has engaged with several communities in Yogyakarta and different parts of the world\, including Pesantren Amumarta\, one of the oldest Islamic boarding schools in Yogyakarta (since 2006) and with Tibetan monks on the Tibetan Plateau dealing with environmental issues (since 2010). Arahmaiani has been teaching in the Department of Southeast Asian Studies at the University of Passau in Germany since 2012.\n\n—\nAbout Dalam Southeast Asia\n\nDalam Southeast Asia is a project space located within the UOB Southeast Asia Gallery. Projects presented here ask critical questions and explore lesser-known narratives in Southeast Asian art\, while rethinking what a collections-based display is\, and what it may seek to achieve.\n\n—\nAbout the exhibition\n\n“The Neglected Dimension” explores the period from the 1960s onward when calligraphy and abstraction became prominent modes of artistic production in Islamic art in Indonesia. This exhibition introduces four artists associated with the modernist artistic training in Bandung\, Indonesia\, a key site where experimentations with Arabic calligraphy and different forms of abstraction took place. The artists are Ahmad Sadali (1924 – 1987)\, A.D. Pirous (b. 1932)\, Haryadi Suadi (1938 – 2016)\, and Arahmaiani (b. 1961).\n\nThe exhibition will be housed in National Gallery Singapore’s Dalam Southeast Asia Gallery from 7 July to February 2024.

SUMMARY:Thweep Rittinaphakorn on "Unseen Burma: Early Photography 1862–1962"
DESCRIPTION:Sun 18 Jun | 3.00pm | National Gallery Singapore\, Supreme Court Wing\, Level 5\, Glass Room \n \n“Unseen Burma: Early Photography 1862–1962” presents a curated set of rare images from his personal collection that brings readers through different facets of Burmese culture and heritage. Rittinaphakorn uses 1962—the year of the Burmese coup d’etat which overthrew the civilian government under prime minister U Nu—as the starting point and looks back to the colonial era in the late 1800s. In this talk by the author himself\, Rittinaphakorn will share the research process behind his book and highlight selected images\, including those of King Thibaw and Queen Suphyalat\, Burma’s last royal couple. This will be followed by a conversation between the author and Peter Lee where they will share more about their individual collections and collecting practices.\n\n—\nAbout the Speakers \nThweep Rittinaphakorn (AKE) is an independent scholar whose work focuses mainly on textiles and arts history of mainland Southeast Asia. He is a textiles curator of the Siam Society’s collection and a regular speaker for the Siam Society\, Thai Textiles Society and the Bangkok National Museum Volunteer group. His research on Shan elites’ costumes and photographs and Burmese tapestry silk known as Luntaya Acheik was presented at the annual conference of the Association of Asian Studies in 2014 and 2016. \n\nHe also spoke at the 13th International Burma Studies Conference of Northern Illinois University Burma Studies Center in 2018\, the 7th and 8th ASEAN Traditional Textiles Symposium in 2019 and 2022\, and at the Irrawaddy Literary Festival\, Mandalay in 2019.

SUMMARY:Mandarin Reading Group | Liu Kuo-sung "On Abstract Paintings"
DESCRIPTION:Sunday 11 June 2023 | 2.30pm – 4.30pm |  National Gallery Singapore\, Supreme Court Wing\, Level 5\, Glass Room\n\n*This reading group will be conducted in Mandarin.\n*The English reading group will be held between September and October.\n\n“The occurrence of an abstract concept is not foreign but has a deep root in our aesthetics …… It is not that Chinese artists don’t have the urge to express their abstract thoughts\, but the urge was expressed in another artistic form – calligraphy\, which enables them to vent emotionally.”\n – From Liu Kuo-sung’s On Abstract Paintings (1960)\n\nJoin this reading group and delve into ink master Liu Kuo-sung’s written text On Abstract Paintings (1960) as he unpacks modern abstract art in relation to Chinese aesthetic thought. Together\, we will discuss and meditate on the visual sensation and perception of his abstract ink paintings.\n\nThis reading group is led by Curatorial Assistant Tan Teen Zhen.\nRecommended age: 16 years and above.\n\n—\n*本次读书会将以华语进行。\n*英文读书会将在九月和十月之间举办。\n\n“抽象观念的发生并非舶来，在我国艺术思想由来已早……中国画家并非没有表现抽象意念的冲动，只是把这种情感冲动借另一种特有的艺术形式——书法——表现出来，在感情的宣泄上寻到了出路。”\n– 摘自刘国松1960年撰写的《论抽象绘画》\n\n本次读书会将品读水墨大师刘国松1960年发表的文章《论抽象绘画》，探讨他如何从东方艺术思想下解读西方现代艺术中的抽象主义。通过细品刘大师的水墨实验作品，了解其创作中的视觉感受和感知。\n\n本次读书会由策展研究助理陈庭真导读。\n推荐参与年龄：16岁以上
