  • Heman Chong in Conversation with Lee Ambrozy
    The Social Architecture of “Situations”: Heman Chong in Conversation with Lee Ambrozy Luca Lenglet, Soft Corners, 2014, sculpture, in The Part in the Story Where A Part Becomes A Part of Something Else, as part of Moderation(s), Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art, Rotterdam. Photo: Aad Hoogendoorn. eman Chong is an artist whose work dissolves boundaries among literature and the performing and visual arts. As the chief Harchitect of the Moderation(s) project, he expanded his role to include that of institutional curator, employing a range of collaborative methodologies to investigate new ways of refreshing modes of production. In this conversation, through dialogue with Moderation(s) participant and art historian Lee Ambrozy, Heman Chong elaborates on the strategies this multi-platform project employed to expand what contemporary art production can be. He elaborates on the goals and methodologies embedded within the project, revealing how Singaporean art collectives of the 1990s, Contact Improvisation, and graphic design inspired the program for Moderation(s). The collaborative frameworks that emerged over twenty-four months in Moderation(s) revealed the fragility of epistemological hierarchies within the art world and the permeable boundaries between the roles that have come to be established with it. The resulting situations expanded and blurred the roles of the participants, and, similarly, migration between two geographically and culturally divergent centres—Witte de With in Rotterdam and Spring Workshop in Hong Kong—lent Moderation(s) an ephemeral character that eluded conventional definition. Heman Chong’s remarks below demonstrate how artists’ roles have adapted to overlapping cultural contexts and shifting geographies.

  • Classic Contemporary Contemporary Southeast Asian Art from the Singapore Art Museum Collection
    CLASSIC CONTEMPORARY CONTEMPORARY SOUTHEAST ASIAN ART FROM THE SINGAPORE ART MUSEUM COLLECTION 29 JANUARY TO 2 MAY 2010 ADVISORY: THIS PUBLICATION CONTAINS IMAGES OF A GRAPHIC NATURE ABOUT THE EXHIBITION Classic Contemporary shines the spotlight on Singapore Art Museum’s most iconic contemporary artworks in its collection. By playfully asking what makes a work of art “classic” or “contemporary” — or “classic contemporary” — this accessible and quirky exhibition aims to introduce new audiences to the ideas and art forms of contemporary art. A stellar cast of painting, sculpture, video, photography and performance art from across Southeast Asia are brought together and given the red-carpet treatment, and the whole of the SAM 8Q building is transformed into a dramatic stage for these stars and icons. Yet beneath the glamour, many of the artworks also probe and prod serious issues — often asking critical and challenging questions about society, nation and the history of art itself. Since its inception in 1996, SAM has focused on collecting the works of artists practicing in the region, and many of these once-emerging artists have since established notable achievements on regional and international platforms. This exhibition marks the start of SAM’s new contemporary art programming centred on enabling artistic development through the creation of exhibition and programming platforms, as well as growing audiences for contemporary art. Classic Contemporary offers an opportunity to revisit major works by Suzann Victor, Matthew Ngui, Simryn Gill, Redza Piyadasa, Jim Supangkat, Nindityo Adipurnomo, Agnes Arellano, Agus Suwage, and Montien Boonma, among others. A full programme of curatorial lectures, artist presentations, moving image screenings and performances complete the classic contemporary experience.
