An Abstract, Speaking: A panel discussion by Artist-in-Residence Guo-Liang Tan

How does one speak of abstraction and what can the abstract say? As part of his residency at NTU CCA Singapore, Guo-Liang Tan has initiated a number of conversations with other artists, writers and curators around the operation of abstraction as an artistic strategy today. This panel will gather part of this ongoing investigation to situate abstraction beyond its usual formal discourse and reconsider its relevance to the fields of semiotics, socio-politics and phenomenology.

Moderator: Guo-Liang Tan Speakers: Dr Kevin Chua, art historian; Joleen Loh, Assistant Curator, National Gallery Singapore; and Ian Woo, artist

This panel discussion takes place as part of Residencies: OPEN during Art Day Out! at Gillman Barracks.
