The Singapore show : future proof

Information About

"Featuring 26 artists and 34 artworks, Future Proof presents the art practices of exciting young Singapore artists with innovative and original art practices within their disciplines. Their artistic ventures take place from streets to galleries, their concerns local to geopolitical, their materials both found and acquired. Their strong and consistent presence in the local and international contemporary art landscape has helped enliven the local creative scene and made them amongst the artists to look out for today. The works featured look at the performance of the body and identity in the context of Singapore, and also of subcultures that flourish beneath the mainstream. Following social, political and cultural shifts, the confidence and incisive focus of these artists is undeniable"--P. [4] of cover.
