Title
Why I am not a South-East Asian specialist – lecture by Tony Godfrey
Description
9 Jun 2015, 7.30pm - 9pm
Tony Godfrey, NTU CCA Singapore Visiting Research Fellow, has written extensively about South-East Asia art in the last six years, however he does not see himself as a South-East Asian specialist. Noting the strong focus on Southeast Asia in local major institutions such as the Singapore Art Museum, the Singapore Biennale and the National Gallery, Godfrey will address in his lecture the issues that arise from this exclusion zone, what are the advantages and disadvantages of this “patriotism” and question what is the best way to support and promote art from the region.
