17/06-12/07/2015 Singapour mon amour: Politics and poetics of space(s) @ Point Ephémère [Paris]

Event SMA NEW Point Ephemere

 SGF LOGO RGB

The exhibition Politics and Poetics of Space(s) presents a selection of works by eight contemporary artists who dedicate their artistic research to exploring social and urban developments in Singapore. Through subtle observations, conceptual or speculative approaches, they focus on unseen, neglected or imaginative spaces, as well as everyday life in the periphery. Distanced from the highly mediatised image of the modern metropolis, they unveil the vision of a quiet city that functions at a slower pace, which gives the viewer room for critical reflexion. The inherent poetry of the chosen images resonates with a sound installation that completes the selection. The exhibition is curated by Silke Schmickl in collaboration with Catherine David.

17 June - 12 July 2015 @ Point Ephémère, 200 Quai de Valmy, 75010 Paris
