Description

What is your name?This simple question yields no easy answers beyond the obvious. How is a name created? What does it represent, and what does it leave out? The art of Singapore is, as these ruminations suggest, more complex and layered than we might imagine. It is also this premise that resides at the heart of the National Gallery Singapore's opening exhibition, Siapa Nama Kamu? : Art in Singapore since the 19th Century.This album offers an overview of Siapa Nama Kamu? through an inspired selection of 100 works from the exhibition. Beautifully reproduced in full colour, these images tell the story of nearly two centuries of art in Singapore - one of diverse influences, shared impulses, and ceaseless flux. Accompanying curatorial texts explain the themes and concerns of the exhibition, making for a compelling look at the most comprehensive survey of art in Singapore to date.
