Curated by Eugene Tan, <i>Engaging Perspectives: New Art From Singapore</i> present works that engage with multifaceted perspectives about Singapore by a generation of artists born in the 1980s and currently working in Singapore. The nine artists and collectives, who are at differing stages of their careers from emerging artists to those who have exhibited internationally will examine the diverse but related ways in which they engage with the everyday. Their works explore the physical structures as as the invisible structures and networks that govern our everyday lives, the relationship of our increasingly urbanised environments to nature, as well as the systems of meaning making through the creation of images and signs that exists in our society. The exhibition aims to provide new perspectives about the everyday within the context of Singapore, and how this engagement with the everyday is also invariably an engagement with global perspectives.

<i>Paradise Lost</i> is NTU CCA Singapore’s inaugural exhibition, curated by Ute Meta Bauer (Founding Director) and Anca Rujoiu (Curator for Exhibitions). Conceived as a constellation of three artistic productions that together explore narratives of travel and migration, place and displacement, the personal intertwined with colonial history, <i>Paradise Lost</i> introduces an imaginary Asia — Asia as a space of projections and desires stemming from an experience of dislocation and asynchronicity. <br /><br />The exhibition juxtaposed trans-generational perspectives, bringing together three major installations of moving image: <i>Surname Viet Given Name Nam</i> (1989) by Trinh T. Minh-ha, <i>Yellow Patch</i> (2011) by Zarina Bhimji and <i>Disorient</i> (2009) by Fiona Tan. <br /><br />While all three artists are of Asian descent, their education and artistic practice unfolded in Europe and the U.S., gaining international exposure from there. Paradise Lost marked the first time these works were shown in Asia in an exhibition context.

<i>CITIES FOR PEOPLE</i> is the pilot edition of the annual NTU CCA Ideas Fest, a platform to catalyse critical exchange of ideas and encourage thinking “out of the box”. It is a bottom-up approach linking the artistic and academic community with grassroots initiatives. This pilot edition expands artistic interventions and engages contemporary issues such as air, water, food, environment, and social interaction in connection to artistic and cultural fields, academic research, and design applications. <br /><br />The 10-day programme, coinciding with Singapore Art Week 2017 and Art After Dark at Gillman Barracks, comprises a conglomerate of performances, public installations, participatory projects and social experiment, urban farming initiatives, public dialogues, and a variety of workshops. It cumulates in a three-day summit that brings together a prominent group of architects, theorists, researchers, curators, and community groups to discuss and exchange ideas about urbanism, modes of exchange, critical spatial practice, and to envision a future city. <i>CITIES FOR PEOPLE</i> offers a platform to contemplate the possibilities for our shared space, reformulate our demands accordingly, and project solutions and desires for the future. <br /><br /><i>CITIES FOR PEOPLE</i>, borrowing the title from a book by eminent Singapore architect William S. W. Lim published in 1990, expands on some of the ideas Lim developed, particularly in relation to tropical environments and recycling, as well as his call for a humanistic architecture. Organised on the occasion of the exhibition <i>Incomplete Urbanism: Attempts at Critical Spatial Practice</i>, this event is an invitation to share and engage in cooperative projects and collective experiences that critically reflect on current challenges in urban and social development.

<i>Stagings. Soundings. Readings. Free Jazz II</i> reviews the performative format that marked NTU CCA Singapore’s inauguration in 2013. <i>Free Jazz</i> 2013 was a series of talks and performances where participants of various disciplines were invited to imagine and envision a new institution and its potential. On its five-year anniversary, the Centre continues advocating for free spaces, celebrating the practice of improvisation, as well as of collective and performative approaches. Discussing ethical values with an expanded sense of community, territorial, and environmental concerns, <i>Stagings. Soundings. Readings.</i> employs an open, multidisciplinary structure that challenges traditional modes of presentation and re-presentation through a range of artistic practices and formats. <br /><br />Situated within a complex and contemporary understanding of the Centre’s current overarching research topic CLIMATES. HABITATS. ENVIRONMENTS., the featured works link theory and practice, emphasising collectiveness. Today, the planet is witnessing a moment of unprecedented loss of biodiversity, habitat destruction, and cultural transformations. In the face of such agitated times juxtaposed with advanced communicative tools, contemporary social and environmental issues require responses from a collective body, through establishing processes of instigation, negotiation, and collaboration. <br /><br />Can we learn from what we see as opposed to being merely seduced by images, becoming active participants instead of only passive observers? <i>Stagings. Soundings. Readings.</i> is an enactment between the artists and the audience. The invited artists engage with a less prescribed environment, reflecting on history, collective action, and human interaction. <br /><br />Located outside the Centre, <b>Maria Loboda</b>‘s sculptural installation is grounded in historical narratives as a reminder that things can change and be taken down overnight, especially by the invisible mechanisms of power. In the Centre’s foyer, <b>Tyler Coburn</b> addresses forms of labour and examines the notion of writing in the 21st century by engaging with complexities of our legal, technological, and geopolitical networks, while <b>Heman Chong</b> analyses motifs of exchange and its boundaries, embracing the space of inter-human connections. <br /><br />Unfolding in the exhibition space, <b>Cally Spooner</b> brings to Singapore an exercise in building new vocabulary and knowledge through bodily means. Using the space as a laboratory, the work investigates new ways of organising and working together. <b>Alexandra Pirici</b>’s choreography explores the possibility of collectively assembling memories of human and non-human presence on the planet. <b>Carlos Casas</b> presents his long-term multi-format ethnographic research based on the human ecology and richness of one of the world’s highest inhabited villages, Hichigh, located in the Pamir mountain range in Tajikistan. Together with composer <b>Phill Niblock</b>, they will create an audio-visual experience, traversing landscape, soundscape, and contemporary music that changes with every iteration. <br /><br />In response to the five-year anniversary and by taking the topic of its celebration <i>Free Jazz</i> literally, <b>Ming Wong</b> will stage an improvisational performance. Similarly, <b>Boris Nieslony</b> (Germany), Co-founder of the artist collective Black Market International, will engage with pioneering Singaporean artist <b>Lee Wen</b> with a discussion and performance. <br /><br />Further probing conventional formats, the accompanying programmes include readings by curator <b>Anca Rujoiu</b> (Romania/Singapore) and poets <b>Peter Sipeli</b> and <b>1angrynative</b> (both Fiji), as well as Behind the Scenes conversations with contributing artists. In The Single Screen, works by <b>Anton Ginzburg</b> (Russia/United States), <b>Mariana Silva</b> (Portugal/United States), <b>Luke Fowler</b> (United Kingdom), <b><b><b>Justin Shoulder </b></b></b>and <b><b><b>Bhenji Ra </b></b></b>(both Philippines/Australia), and others, will add a filmic perspective to the dialogue. <br /><br />This multitude of celebratory events instigates an active engagement with the now, following a conscious desire to become truly present. <br /><br />Curated by <strong>Ute Meta Bauer</strong>, Founding Director, NTU CCA Singapore, and Professor, School of Art, Design and Media, Nanyang Technological University, and <strong>Magdalena Magiera</strong>, Curator, Outreach and Education, NTU CCA Singapore.

<i>The Disappearance</i> situates itself in the architectural setting of a previous exhibition <i>Paradise Lost</i>. It works with what is left out: the traces of the show in the space; its echoes in our memory, <i>The Disappearance</i> conceals and reveals: what has happened before and what will follow. Subject to operations of installation and de-installation, an exhibition space if continuously edited: we erase one text to inscribe another. <i>The Disappearance</i> acknowledges the inherent changes into an exhibition space and its continuous rewriting. What happens after an exhibition is over? What we remember? How we remember? <br /><br />Curated by Anca Rujoiu (Curator for Exhibitions) and Vera Mey (Curator for Residencies), <i>The Disappearance</i> is conceived as a durational event unfolding over two days including a continuous series of manifestations from live performances to film screenings.

<i>No Country: Contemporary Art for South and Southeast Asia</i> is part of the Guggenheim UBS MAP Global Art Initiative which was launched in April 2012, a multi-year collaboration that charts contemporary art practice in three geographic regions—South and Southeast Asia, Latin America, and the Middle East and North Africa—and encompasses curatorial residencies, international touring exhibitions, audience-driven education programming, and acquisitions for the Guggenheim’s permanent collection. <br /><br />Curated by June Yap, No Country at NTU Centre for Contemporary Art Singapore brought the artworks back to the Southeast Asia region from which many of the artists hail and called for an even closer examination of regional cultural representations and relations. This return suggests the possibility of a renewed understanding through a process of mutual rediscovery that transcends physical and political borders. The exhibition in Singapore also marked the debut of two works from the Guggenheim UBS MAP Purchase Fund not previously shown as part of <i>No Country: Loss</i> by Sheela Gowda and <i>Morning Glory</i> by Sopheap Pich.

<i>Theatrical Fields</i> introduces theatricality as a critical strategy in performance, film and video. This exhibition presents six video installations shown for the first time in Southeast Asia: <i>Voice off</i> by Judith Barry (USA),<i> Suspiria</i> by Stan Douglas (Canada), <i>Lines in the Sand<i> by Joan Jonas (USA), </i>Vagabondia</i> by Isaac Julien (UK), <i>She Might Belong to You</i> by Eva Meyer & Eran Schaerf (Germany / Israel), <i>X Characters Re(hers)AL</i> by Constanze Ruhm (Austria). Situated in juxtaposition, the works generate temporal spaces for experimental action, creating unfamiliar proximities and encounters. <br /><br /><i>Theatrical Fields</i> was curated by Ute Meta Bauer (Founding Director) with Anca Rujoiu (Curator for Exhibitions), and was first presented and commissioned by the Bildmuseet, Umea in Sweden (2013). <br /><br />As a collaboration, Bildmuseet Umea and NTU Centre for Contemporary Art Singapore will publish a catalogue including keynotes from the symposium and additional commissioned essays.

<b><i>Incomplete Urbanism: Attempts of Critical Spatial Practice</i></b> is an open-ended exhibition that serves as a laboratory of ideas, exploring the indeterminacy and changeability of urban living. Borrowing its title from eminent Singaporean architect William S.W. Lim’s book <i>Incomplete Urbanism: A Critical Urban Strategy for Emerging Economies</i> (2012), this multifaceted project takes Lim’s practice and the initiatives of the Asian Urban Lab that he started with colleagues in 2003, as a point of departure. It presents various researches into the spatial, cultural and social aspects of city life according to the publications Lim was involved with. <br /><br />Acknowledging Lim’s contributions as a prolific urban theorist and catalyst of ideas, whose vision asks that we reconsider the traditions of Asian architecture for the “contemporary vernacular”, <i>Incomplete Urbanism</i> is a direct response to his critical ideas – a space is generated to encourage participation and agency. <br /><br />Lim’s key ideas will be explored by commissioned projects from several contributors, including <b>Dr Marc Glöde</b> (Germany/Singapore), film curator, Visiting Scholar, School of Art, Design (ADM) and Media, Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore; <b>Laura Miotto </b>(Italy/Singapore), Associate Professor, NTU ADM; <b>Shirley Surya</b> (Indonesia/Hong Kong), Associate Curator for Design and Architecture, M+, Hong Kong and NTU CCA Singapore Visiting Research Fellows; <b>Dr Etienne Turpin</b> (Canada/Indonesia), Research Scientist, Urban Risk Lab, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, United States; and <b>Sissel Tolaas</b> (Norway/Germany), smell researcher and artist. <br /><br /><i>Incomplete Urbanism</i> seeks to present a dynamic space to engage urban issues, through discussions, debates, a programme on classic Singapore films, workshops and other collective efforts.

<i>The Making of an Institution</i> captures different moments in the development of the NTU Centre for Contemporary Art Singapore (NTU CCA Singapore) connecting artistic projects, discursive manifestations, and the institutional apparatus in a seamless display. It looks back into its young past in order to shape its future. Challenging the format of an exhibition, <i>The Making of an Institution</i> creates a communal space where projects and research explorations by the Centre’s Artists-, Curators-in- Residence, and Research Fellows coexist with ongoing series of talks, screenings, performances, and workshops. The project engages the Centre’s main pillars–Exhibitions, Residencies, Research and Academic Education – bringing to a close the overarching curatorial narrative <i>Place.Labour.Capital.</i> that served as a framework for its activities since 2013. <br /><br />Established in 2013, the Centre embodies the complexity of a contemporary art institution in times of knowledge economy and global art. The role of a contemporary art institution should not be limited to the presentation of art. It feeds off and nurtures the cultural ecosystem it belongs to through a complex series of actions that often reside in the realm of the immaterial. The Centre’s inaugural programme <i>Free Jazz</i> addressed the foundational question “What can this institution be?” highlighting the skill of improvisation and free play. Three years later, different questions are to be raised: What could the role of the NTU CCA Singapore be for the years to come within a fast changing local, regional, and global cultural landscape? What are the criteria to evaluate its achievements and impact? <br /><br />In revisiting its own process of institutional building, NTU CCA Singapore appropriates the format and language of a “public report”. While a public report is conventionally employed to deliver an official written narrative, the Centre’s report unfolds in the exhibition space through the languages of the performative, the discursive, and the archival. <br /><br />“It’s amazing how far we were able to come in just three years,” said Ute Meta Bauer, Founding Director, NTU CCA Singapore. “<i>The Making of an Institution</i> is a celebration of the international community we have built, including scholars, artists, and the public. Now it is time for us to reflect and analyse our achievements before the exciting next steps ahead.” <br /><br /><i>The Making of an Institution</i> is divided into four sections borrowed from the structure of a public report: <i>Reason to Exist: The Director’s Review; Ownership, Development, and Aspirations; Artistic Research; and Communication and Mediation. The first section, Reason to Exist: The Director’s Review</i> maps out a network of institutions, like NTU CCA Singapore, that place research at the core of their identity. Each guest director will closely examine the vision, mission, and operative model of her respective organisation in a series of talks aimed at deepening our understanding of the changing role of contemporary cultural institutions. <i>Ownership, Development, and Aspirations</i> is a public panel with several members of the NTU CCA Singapore’s International Advisory Board and its stakeholders representatives that stresses the importance of feedback and exchange among peers especially in the development phase of an institution. The section dedicated to <i>Artistic Research</i> frames the material and immaterial aspects that constitute contemporary art practices. It takes over the Centre’s physical <i>Spaces of the Curatorial</i>—The Exhibition Hall, The Single Screen, The Lab, and The Vitrine—juxtaposing artworks and research projects by NTU CCA Singapore’s Artists-, Curators-in- Residence, and Research Fellows alongside various formats of public programming. Finally, Communication and Mediation explores the production of an institution’s identity through visual communication and spatial practices. Through workshops and presentations, artists, architects, and designers will discuss how they create diverse visual and spatial identities for art institutions. <br /><br />The public report will culminate into a book planned for publication in mid-2017, gathering the voices of all the artists, curators, researchers, and academics who have contributed to this first phase of the Centre. The Making of an Institution is curated by Ute Meta Bauer, Founding Director, Anna Lovecchio, Curator, Residencies, and Anca Rujoiu, Manager, Publications.

<i>Ghosts and Spectres — Shadows of History</i> features video installations and films by <b>Apichatpong Weerasethakul</b> (Thailand), <b>Ho Tzu Nyen</b> (Singapore), <b>Nguyen Trinh Thi</b> (Vietnam), and <b>Park Chan-kyong</b> (South Korea). The artists’ research into their own cultural and historical backgrounds gain shape through allegories that re-evaluate the social and political reforms in Post-War and Cold-War Asia. The cinematic works in the exhibition combine fact and fiction. They not only allude to rarely discussed subject-matters but also raise crucial questions about power and authority, construction of narratives, repression of identities, and collective trauma. <br /><br />Embedded in the vernacular, ghosts, myths, and rituals present systems of knowledge that enable the expression of unknown worlds. <i>Ghosts and Spectres — Shadows of History</i> brings to light clouded histories at times not officially recounted but those that remain a lingering presence in collective memories through local mythologies, ghostly figures, and traditions. The works create their own language and systems of reference, reflecting current efforts of exposing written historical accounts and contemporary situations that subvert mainstream narratives. <br /><br />In parallel, The Lab, NTU CCA Singapore’s platform for research in-progress, will be featuring projects by <b>siren eun young jung</b> (South Korea) and <b>Choy Ka Fai</b> (Singapore/Germany), both recent NTU CCA Singapore artists-in-residence. While jung focuses on <i>Yeoseong Gukgeuk</i>, a vanishing form of traditional Korean theatre featuring only female performers, Choy brings up his long-time research into <i>Butoh</i> dance, also called “dance of darkness,” and looks at its evolution and influence through one of the <i>Butoh</i> founders, Tatsumi Hijikata. <br /><br />Ghosts and Spectres—Shadows of History is curated by <b>Ute Meta Bauer</b>, Founding Director, NTU CCA Singapore, and Professor, School of Art, Design and Media, NTU, and <b>Khim Ong</b>, Deputy Director, Curatorial Programmes.
