What Contemporary artist Song-Ming Ang presents three new physical art pieces as an extension of his showcase at the 58th Venice Biennale in 2019. The works, which are grounded in the theme of amateurism and agency will be presented through a humble recorder, as it investigates our personal and societal relationships with music.
Held at the National Museum of Singapore and commissioned by the National Arts Council, Ang will also be hosting a special performative lecture to discuss the three-channel film Recorder Rewrite, an installation that features children of diverse backgrounds playing an originally-crafted composition. The event will also feature a panel discussion on the past decade of the Venice Biennale with the founding director of the Nanyang Technological University's Centre for Contemporary Art (NTU CCA) Ute Meta Bauer, as well as homegrown artist Ho Tzu Nyen.
