A 5-month collaboration with Nanyang Technological University’s Centre for Contemporary Art, from June to Oct 2014.

ABOUT More than [show] business: Post-PopUp at CCA

Post-PopUp is conceived as a platform for exploring different curatorial formats and ways of presenting and distributing art. It is hosted within one of the CCA artists’ studios as a site for events, happenings, artistic experiments, hanging out and spontaneity. The programme will unfold in several episodes, bringing together institutional, curatorial and artistic gestures. More than [show] business is a space that could be tested for a future of co-constituted creative spaces and artistic communities in Singapore, looking at institution building in tandem with artistic practice.

The project is a collaborative effort between Post-Museum and CCA, led by curators Anca Rujoiu and Vera Mey, with the additional support of the National Arts Council.
