Dive into the world of two visionary Singaporean artists, Teo Eng Seng and Kim Lim, at National Gallery Singapore this year. With two major exhibitions—Teo Eng Seng: We’re Happy. Are You Happy? and Kim Lim: The Space Between. A Retrospective—art enthusiasts are invited to experience the depth and diversity of Singapore’s modern art scene through the eyes of these pioneering artists.
Engage in the witty and thought-provoking works of Cultural Medallion recipient Teo Eng Seng at the largest and most comprehensive exhibition of his career. Teo Eng Seng: We’re Happy. Are You Happy? showcases nearly 70 artworks that delve into the intersection of self and society, responding to global socio-political events of the mid-20th century.
Teo, renowned for his innovative medium “paperdyesculp,” transforms everyday materials into dynamic, sculptural art pieces that are both humorous and socially engaged. Visitors can explore Teo’s unique artistic approach, which combines spontaneity with vivid compositions, offering a glimpse into his personal and broader social commentaries.
Rediscover the brilliance of Singapore-born sculptor and printmaker Kim Lim in this expansive retrospective, Kim Lim: The Space Between. A Retrospective. This landmark exhibition presents over 150 works, offering a comprehensive look at Lim’s artistic journey from the 1960s to the 1990s.
Highlighting Lim’s exploration of Minimalism and her resistance to being confined by identity, the exhibition features key sculptures, prints, maquettes, and never-before-seen photographs. Lim’s work masterfully balances space, light, and rhythm, using suggestion and metaphor to create powerful visual experiences. Visitors will gain new insights into her creative philosophy and the cultural influences that shaped her groundbreaking approach to art.
Both exhibitions promise to offer a profound exploration of Singapore’s modern art legacy.
