This book approaches the subject of contemporary art by exploring
the social embeddedness and identities of Singaporean artists.
Linking artistic processes and production to both personal worlds
and wider issues, the book examines how artists negotiate
their relationships between self and society and between
artistic freedom and social responsibility. It is based on original
research into the discourses and artistic practices of local
artists, with a special focus on emerging artists and artists whose
work and perspectives engage with questions of identity.
Reimagining contemporary Singapore and their place within it,
artists are asserting their multiple and heterogeneous
self-identities and contesting hegemonic norms and notions, as they
negotiate and adapt to the world around them. This book is
relevant to students and researchers in the fields of cultural
studies, media studies, art, sociology of art, arts education, and
race and ethnicity studies.
