    NUS Museum Wins Inaugural Award for Innovative Museological Practice

    NUS Centre For the Arts For immediate release NUS Museum wins inaugural award For innovative museological practice International Committee of University Museums and Collections recognizes efforts to facilitate conversation between audiences and exhibitions Associate Professor Peter Pang, Associate Provost (Student Life), NUS, accepting the award from UMAC Chair Professor Hugues Dreyssé at NUS Museum, 10 May 2016. SINGAPORE, 10 May 2016 – NUS Museum’s prep-room is the first recipient of the University Museums and Collections (UMAC) Award for the most significant innovation or practice that has proved successful in a university museum or collection. Initiated in 2011, the prep-room is conceived as a means of exploring curatorial methods, developing content and scope and seeking audience participation in the lead-up to projects such as exhibitions and programmes. Employing mostly archival materials, curators present content, curatorial experiments and design ideas in an open gallery, inviting visitors to observe the exhibition-making process, engage with content, and potentially begin a long-term interest in the project. Since 2011, a total of ten projects have been incubated as prep-rooms at the Museum. Professor Hugues Dreyssé, Chairman of UMAC, shares, “The Board (of UMAC) salutes the museum's understanding of the basic principle of creating a contact between the audience and the museum, the creative approach to discussion between researchers, interns, artists and the public and the ease of adapting the idea to other museums.” In 2011, NUS Museum developed the notion of the prep-room from the museum’s work with archival materials and methods. With an interest in the Raffles Lighthouse, located on Pulau Satumu (Singapore), curators and collaborators spent eight months sourcing, categorizing and visually mapping archival materials ranging from 15th century cartographic maps to 19th century governmental declarations.
