  • 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.

  • INTRODUCTION the Story of Singapore and Her People Has Always Been One of Resilience Amid Change
    Sungei Rd 1 INTRODUCTION The story of Singapore and her people has always been one of resilience amid change. From the early pioneers who came to make a living, to later generations who overcame the war and struggled to build a modern, sovereign nation, Singapore’s success over the past 50 years owes much to the indomitable spirit, fortitude and resourcefulness of her people. National Day Parade, 2015 This national resilience continues to be a hallmark of independent Singapore. It has allowed the nation to weather periods of crisis, defend and strengthen herself on all fronts, and for her people to work together to transform the island into a global hub for commerce and culture. Today, this same Singapore spirit is driving a new phase of development as the nation strives to create a liveable and sustainable city; a home like no other with ample room to grow and opportunities for different communities to flourish and build a better future together. This collective resilience, which defines Singapore’s journey from 14th century trading hub, to colonial port to independent nation and global city, is the theme of the Jubilee Walk. Created in 2015 to mark Singapore’s Golden Jubilee, the Jubilee Walk is a specially curated trail of iconic locations that recall Singapore’s historic beginnings, her path towards nationhood, and show the way forward to Singapore’s present and future as a global city. 2 In this 1570 map by Flemish cartographer Abraham Ortelius, the Malay Peninsula appears as an elongated extension of mainland Southeast Asia, and Singapore as an appendix, marked “Cincapura” 3 4 The Jubilee Walk celebrates how far we have arrived after 50 years of independence and looks back in time to situate the island’s current progress within a maritime legacy spanning over 700 years.

  • Clifford Pier - a Gateway to New Life
    Page 1 CLIFFORD PIER - A GATEWAY TO NEW LIFE Taken from an article written by Kelvin Ang for ‘Skyline’, URA’s corporate magazine Before the age of affordable mass air travel, travellers to Singapore would have arrived by sea, on a luxury steamer if one was fortunate and wealthy enough. The majority of the rest – men and women in search of their fortunes would have entered the Singapore harbour in more humble vessels. Sometime in the late 1930s…every seafarer would see, as the ships drew closer to the Lion City, the skyline would gradually rise up from the watery horizon. Perhaps initially as a hazy mirage before eventually becoming clearer, with the grand, grey landmarks lining up along the various quays, becoming more solid in the brilliant tropical sun that shines down over the Equator. Scanning hopefully from the deck of the ship, a traveller would have seen his future anchored on one end by the Fullerton Building, possibly the grandest post office in the Far East. If the traveller had arrived on a fast steamer in the late 1950s, his attention would also be caught by the skyscraping Art-Deco style Asia Insurance Building that terminated the western end of the vista with its shiny silver crown. Or perhaps he is arriving at dusk, and as the flaming sunsets that this island is known for turns into velvety night, his eyes would be drawn ahead to a set of red lights marking the location of Singapore’s Clifford Pier. This is where all the smaller lighter boats seem to gather around, discharging passengers and their luggage that they have picked up from the larger ships.
