Join a tour of the show for a deeper understanding of the works and processes!Inside the Wild Cube is an art exhibition purposefully positioned outside the museum and gallery space. It addresses the architectural implications, economic structures and institutional expectations that significantly impact creative labour.Conceptualised by the collaborative group Progressive Disintegrations (Chua Chye Teck, Marc Gloede, Hilmi Johandi & Wei Leng Tay), this exhibition asks how one can become aware of one's surroundings, and how these environments shape ways of seeing. Through photography, painting, and installation, the exhibition steps away from the classical independent art space environment and embraces white cube aesthetics, which in this instance are the remains of a former gallery. The works presented in the project investigate how the group’s own history co-mingled with that of the space, can create structures that deeply influence the creative outcomes.Through the exhibition, the project reconsiders the spatial implications and impact on art production that Brian O’Doherty addressed in his groundbreaking book “Inside the White Cube”. Together with the work of Chua, Gloede, Johandi, and Tay, one of O’Doherty’s seminal rope drawings that impacted his ideas formulated later in his book will be shown. In this way, the exhibition asks what it means to actively create a zone that questions the immediate demands of an art industry, to create a structure of criticality.Free admission subject to Covid-19 health and safety measures.This programme is supported by the National Arts Council Singapore and Galerie Thomas Fischer, and a part of Singapore Art Week.
