  • MEDIA RELEASE Singapore Art Museum's Latest Exhibition, UNEARTHED, Invites Audiences to Explore Our Relationship with The
    MEDIA RELEASE Singapore Art Museum’s latest exhibition, UNEARTHED, invites audiences to explore our relationship with the natural world First exhibition of 2014 charts the museum’s new direction to present the intersection of contemporary art and other disciplines 17 March 2014, Singapore – Following the close of Singapore Biennale 2013, the Singapore Art Museum (SAM) is proud to present its first exhibition of the year, UNEARTHED, which seeks to investigate artists’ views on the natural world and invites viewers to contemplate their relationships with the natural environment. This examination of earthly experiences, expressed through contemporary art, exemplifies SAM’s new direction of encompassing projects and practices that present art intersecting with various disciplines and modalities. This is also SAM’s inaugural exhibition as a corporatised entity under the Ministry of Culture, Community and Youth’s (MCCY) Visual Arts Cluster (VAC). Unveiling works across various mediums from performance to photography, installation and video, the exhibition explores the concept of nature as an object and subject, one that can be and has been studied, controlled and constructed. This extends into a metaphor for the nation and its national identity, with contrasting notions from a carefully cultivated ‘Garden City’, to nature as unknown, uncanny, and untamed. It also draws on memories of nature’s recent incursions into the cityscape. UNEARTHED sees works drawn from SAM’s permanent collection as well as private and artists’ collections. In addition, SAM has commissioned seven local artists to produce new works that resonate with the topic at hand. These 28 artworks from UNEARTHED, presented in the SAM Galleries, offer insights on how artists in Singapore view and respond to the natural world, coming from and living in an urban and built-up environment, exploring topics such as water, geography, memory, natural history, raw material and the fragility of nature.
