Earth Work, originally staged at the National Museum Art Gallery in 1980 by Singapore artist Tang Da Wu, was one of the earliest exhibitions of land art in Singapore. Key works from the exhibition included Gully Curtains, Product of the Sun and Me and Product of the Rain and Me. Earth Work 1979 is a restaging of selected works from the seminal 1980 exhibition. This catalogue delves deeper into Tang’s practice, the circumstances of the creation of his earth works and the environment of Singapore in the 1970s and 1980s through essays, interviews, newspaper articles and never-before-seen photo documentation.
Published to accompany National Gallery Singapore’s inaugural exhibition Siapa Nama Kamu?, the catalogue stands on the shoulders of giants to present a survey of Singapore art from the 19th century to the present, charting major themes across broad time periods. Over 400 works of art in a wide range of media are brought together to trace the ebb and flow of the history of Singapore art. Curatorial essays provide insight into the exhibition making, as well as examine the geographical confines of Singapore, the parameters of national identity and margins of time.
