Biographies Randy Chan Randy Chan Is an Award-Winning Architect YEO WORKSHOP Gillman Barracks SG +65 67345168 [email protected] www.yeoworkshop.com 1 Lock Road, S (108932) Biographies Randy Chan Randy Chan is an award-winning architect and artist. Chan’s architectural and design experience crosses multiple fields and scales, all guided by the simple philosophy that architecture and aesthetics are part of the same impulse. Chan is the principal of Zarch Collaboratives - one of Singapore’s leading architectural studios established in 1999. The objective of the studio is to practice and fulfil architectural projects but also cross disciplines and approach the means of spatial design. They have worked on a series of exhibition spaces, stage set designs, art installations, world expositions and catered for private and public housing plans. Additionally, Chan is the creative director of Singapore: Inside Out, an international platform featuring a collection of multi-disciplinary experiences created by practicing artists. It is a platform with a global intention. It accommodates and presents the creative talents of Beijing, London, New York and Singapore. Artistically it combines the varying disciplines of architecture, design, fashion, film, food, music, performance and the visual arts.

YEO WORKSHOP Gillman Barracks SG +65 67345168 [email protected] 1 Lock Road, S (108932) www.yeoworkshop.com Ian Woo Ian Woo is a Singaporean artist (b. 1967) whose practice may be defined by abstraction. Clearly depicting the gestural intimacy he has with his work, his influences derive from modernist forms, perceptual abstractions and sound sculptures of musical improvisation. Depicting a sense of representational change and employing gravitational means, his term ‘picture making’ best describes his approach. Regarding his practice as a form of disciplinary maintenance and evolvement of painting as a vehicle for pictorial reflectivity, the work seems to be within a constant state of progression. Woo began his studies at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (Singapore) in 1991 and received a Masters in European Fine Art at the Winchester School of Art (UK) in 1995. He further continued his academic studies to complete a DFA at RMIT University (Australia) in 2006, with a doctorate research thesis based on the ability of abstract painting to express notions of a continuous presence. His efforts and achievements have been rewarded by an array of supporting bodies, enabling him to be the recipient of the UOB Painting of the Year award in the category of Abstract Art in 1999. Additionally, he was the Juror’s Choice for two consecutive years in South East Asia’s Philip Morris Award in 1999 and 2000. Woo’s work has also been displayed in numerous international solo shows such as “The Difference Between Your Mountain and My Couch” at 8/ Tomio Koyama Gallery, Japan (2014), “Ian Woo: A Review 1995 – 2011” at the Institute of Contemporary Arts Singapore (2011) and “Mental Images” at the LASALLE Gallery in Singapore in 2000. Group exhibitions include “Forever II” at Galerie DNA, Germany, “ A Drawing Show” at Yeo Workshop, Singapore (2014), “Market Forces – Erasure: From Conceptualism To Abstraction” at Osage Gallery, Hong Kong (2014), “Island Vernacular” at Peninsula Arts Gallery, Plymouth University, UK (2013) and “Encounter: The Royal Academy in Asia” at Institute of Contemporary Arts Singapore (2012). His work may be found in major international institutions such as ABN AMRO, Singapore Art Museum, The Istana Singapore, The National Art Gallery Singapore, UBS, and the Mint Museum of Craft & Design, USA and have also been featured in the publication “Art of the New Cities: 21st Century Avant-Gardes,” by Phaidon in 2013. Loke Hong Seng Loke Hong Seng is a fine art photographer shooting street portraits of Singapore during the period 1963 to 1985. These 22 years parallel a period of tremendous change in YEO WORKSHOP Gillman Barracks SG +65 67345168 [email protected] 1 Lock Road, S (108932) www.yeoworkshop.com Singapore – from the fight for Independence through modernization of the country – during which he captured the emergence of a new republic against the backdrop of vernacular architecture and colonial buildings. While taking pictorial salon photos, he made a conscious decision to shoot more realistic images of daily life for a more creative presentation. Though his photographs adhere to classical modes of composition, his style has a contemporaneous aspect of depicting modern life. Loke Hong Seng was born in Singapore in 1943. He is part of the pioneer generation in Singapore, graduating from Chung Cheng High School in 1960, and joining the Singapore Broadcasting Corporation as an announcer and a producer in 1965. Around this time, he began taking amateur photographs with his older brother’s Topcon camera. His passion for the craft steadily grew, and soon he acquired and used cameras such as Topcon, an Afga folded 6X9 and a Rolleicord 6X6. In 1968 he joined the Photographic Society of Singapore (PSS). Following the influence of his peers, he began shooting with a Leicaflex 35mm camera. Loke’s recent exhibitions include group presentations at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts entitled Vernacula_As Seen Through Art, Film & Photography, 2015, a public display titled Pioneers: Modern Singapore at Raffles Place Park (2015), and A Social Portrait of Singapore: The Critical Years at the UOB Art Gallery (2015). Loke held his first solo exhibition at the Yeo Workshop in 2015, A Social Portrait of Singapore: The Critical Years. Merryn Trevethan Merryn Trevethan’s practice focuses on the uncertainty of perception in densely populated urban environments, which is flooded with visual information and complexity of vision. Her drawings, paintings and installations draw attention to the inconsistencies in our perception of the world and create situations that allow us to experience, engage and see in the moment. Her imagery comes from skyscrapers, cityscapes and geometric grids of streets and buildings. Scattered Thunderstorms and Mostly Cloudy were inspired by tropical city life in Singapore.

At the center of this shakeup was the modern structure par excellence : the State. This dissertation analyzes the dissolution of the bond between architecture and the State through a double lens. First, this study is framed by the workings of an architect, Aldo Rossi, whose practice mirrored this transformation in a unique way, going from Mussolini’s Italy to Reagan’s America, from the Communist Party to Disneyland. The second lens is provided by a set of technological apparatuses ii that, in this pre-digital world, impacted the reach of the State and the boundaries of architecture. Drawing on the multifaceted root of the term “State,” this dissertation sets out to explore a series of case studies that addressed the need to re-state architecture – both in the sense of relocating architecture within new landscapes of power and in the sense of finding ways to keep reproducing it in those uncharted territories.

  • On Vilém Flusser's Towards a Philosophy Of
    FLUSSER STUDIES 10 Photography and Beyond: On Vilém Flusser’s Towards a Philosophy of Photography The following short pictorial and textual contributions by Mark Amerika, Sean Cubitt, John Goto, Andreas Müller-Pohle, Michael Najjar, Simone Osthoff, Nancy Roth, Bernd-Alexander Stiegler, Geoffrey Winthrop-Young and Siegfried Zielinski explore the practical and theoretical relevance and actuality of Vilém Flusser‘s Towards a Philosophy of Photography, first published as Für eine Philosophie der Fotografie in 1983. It has been translated into more than 14 different languages. These observations are based on the following questions: What is the theoretical and practical relevance of Flusser‘s Towards a Philosophy of Photography, written more than 25 years ago and translated into many languages? What was the impact of Flusser‘s conception of photography on the artistic practice of photography and image-creation internationally? Beyond Flusser: What is the status of photography and images within the present context of digital cameras and 3-D film? What new theoretical parameters and models enliven the scholarly debates on and artistic engagements with photography and images? How do theories of the (technical) image promote interdisciplinary scholarship? Rainer Guldin and Anke Finger Lugano / Storrs, November 2010 1 FLUSSER STUDIES 10 Mark Amerika, Applied Flusser [email protected] Flusser, in Toward A Philosophy of Photography writes: ―The task of the philosophy of photography is to question photographers about freedom, to probe their practice in pursuit of freedom.‖ Here, the photographer is not just someone who uses a camera to take pictures, but is a kind of hybrid who is part science fiction philosopher and part data gleaner.

    THE HISTORY OF PHOTOGRAPHY The Research Library of the Mack Lee Gallery 2,633 titles in circa 3,140 volumes Lee Gallery Photography Research Library Comprising over 3,100 volumes of monographs, exhibition catalogues and periodicals, the Lee Gallery Photography Research Library provides an overview of the history of photography, with a focus on the nineteenth century, in particular on the first three decades after the invention photography. Strengths of the Lee Library include American, British, and French photography and photographers. The publications on French 19th- century material (numbering well over 100), include many uncommon specialized catalogues from French regional museums and galleries, on the major photographers of the time, such as Eugène Atget, Daguerre, Gustave Le Gray, Charles Marville, Félix Nadar, Charles Nègre, and others. In addition, it is noteworthy that the library includes many small exhibition catalogues, which are often the only publication on specific photographers’ work, providing invaluable research material. The major developments and evolutions in the history of photography are covered, including numerous titles on the pioneers of photography and photographic processes such as daguerreotypes, calotypes, and the invention of negative-positive photography. The Lee Gallery Library has great depth in the Pictorialist Photography aesthetic movement, the Photo- Secession and the circle of Alfred Stieglitz, as evidenced by the numerous titles on American photography of the early 20th-century. This is supplemented by concentrations of books on the photography of the American Civil War and the exploration of the American West. Photojournalism is also well represented, from war documentary to Farm Security Administration and LIFE photography.

    la maison rouge - fondation antoine de galbert - from November 4th 2005 to January 15th 2006 It’s a narrow door, but for me it’s the only one. I know that history is not just dates, that it’s constantly in motion, slow and subterranean, but the fact is that I work on a property of photography, something only it has. This is its supposed lit- erality. Finally, there is the insignificance of my position. In the field, I do what I can, and that’s it. No omniscient vision, no dominant perspective… (…) Can you say something about this formalization? The words only come afterwards, after you’ve found… Being an artist is nothing, or at least, not enough; what you want is to be a poet. You are articulating sounds that are still form- less, inventing what looks like a possible route. And yet that view of the exhibition is the essence of the thing. All you’re ever doing is translat- ing an attitude and rationalizing an intuition, using first of Luc Delahaye all what is specific to photography.

Metric Space the CCA presents a major new work by the renowned German artist Montréal, 24 February 2005 – From 9 March to 22 May 2005 in the Octagonal Gallery, the Canadian Centre for Architecture announces the opening of Dieter Appelt: Forth Bridge — Cinema. Metric Space, an exhibition presenting a major new work inspired by the spectacular late nineteenth-century Forth Rail Bridge near Edinburgh in Scotland. This second Tangent exhibition curated by Hubertus von Amelunxen, visiting curator of the CCA photographs collection, presents Dieter Appelt's monumental eight-part photographic tableau commissioned in 2002 by the CCA, together with conceptual drawings for the project. The exhibition also includes a provocative selection of images from the CCA’s vast archive on the Forth Bridge, most notably, photographs by Evelyn George Carey (1858–1932), a young engineer who became the official project photographer for the engineering firm of John Fowler and Benjamin Baker responsible for the design of the bridge. The CCA Tangent project was conceived to engage artists in new reflection on the relationship between photography and architecture, beginning with a corpus of photographs selected by von Amelunxen, from the CCA's vast collection—materials conceived as the beginning of a phrase to be completed by the artist. Invited to the CCA in the spring of 2002, Dieter Appelt was immediately drawn to the CCA's large archive on the Forth Bridge, which he had first seen and photographed more than 25 years earlier, and which still held great fascination for him.
