Tag Name Target Audience

10 Aug 2022

As advanced technologies lead to decentralisation and shifts in how the public participates and accesses art, what is the role of the art museum and how might it look at collecting, curating and exhibiting art during present times? Wikicliki: Collecting Habits on an Earth Filled with Smartphones was a presentation by Singapore Art Museum of recent acquisitions by Heman Chong and Charles Lim Yi Yong, alongside works by Debbie Ding, Chua Chye Teck, Amanda Heng and bani haykal. The exhibition sought to construct an ecology for exploring how artists are radically reworking formats and how contemporary art institutions can act in relation to these burgeoning concerns. The exhibition was titled after the constantly evolving work, http://dbbd.sg/wiki, by artist Debbie Ding. Maintained since 2008, Ding’s work traces emerging issues around society’s use of the internet, technology, design, architecture, linguistics and varied cultural topics.

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
