Everyone expects to attend exhibits when they go to art museums. But Singapore Art Museum is letting visitors take a peek behind the curtain in a new exhibit on the process of making exhibits.
Visitors to the museum have an opportunity to learn about what goes into curating and realizing a full exhibit at a museum space. What’s even more special is that the exhibit on exhibits is in the context of the Singapore Art Museum’s own storied history in bringing art to the masses. This behind-the-scenes exhibit details the museum’s more than 20-year history. Singapore Art Museum was the first space in Singapore that was completely dedicated to exhibiting art. Since then, its role has grown, expanded, and transformed amid the nation’s booming arts scene.
The exhibition will also present a brand new installation by a legendary Singaporean artist commissioned specifically for the exhibit. And visitors have the chance to get their hands dirty and gain real experience on curating and installing their own shows in an interactive component to the exhibit. Visitors can expect an inside look and experience learning everything there is to know about museum administrators, the curation process, the artists’ experiences, and even the literal installation process of paintings, sculptures, and other works.
In one portion of the exhibit, visitors will get to see a fully comprehensive timeline of different exhibits amid the history of the Singapore Art Museum, color coded for maximum comprehension. Another sculptural display features interlocking rings suspended in the middle of the room and roped off. A temporary-looking sign that reads “Installation in Progress” mirrors the name of the exhibit. Visitors can also take a load off and sit in comfortable chairs while browsing the books available to read in the reference library of the museum. It’s a wonderful opportunity to truly delve into the inner workings of a bastion in Singapore’s art scene. And perhaps the biggest draw of the exhibit is the create your own exhibit portion, where visitors can literally arrange and plan their own exhibits and display their own curations.
