Linking artistic processes and production to both personal worlds and wider issues, the book examines how artists negotiate their relationships between self and society and between artistic freedom and social responsibility. It is based on original research into the discourses and artistic practices of local artists, with a special focus on emerging artists and artists whose work and perspectives engage with questions of identity. Reimagining contemporary Singapore and their place within it, artists are asserting their multiple and heterogeneous self-identities and contesting hegemonic norms and notions, as they negotiate and adapt to the world around them. Relevant to art and cultural scholars interested in the relationships between self and society, between artistic freedom and social responsibility, this book also presents a new means of understanding contemporary Singapore and Singaporean identity through the lens of its artists. This book is relevant to students and researchers in the fields of cultural studies, media studies, art, sociology of art, arts education, and race and ethnicity studies. 606 $aNational characteristics, Singaporean 606 $aArt, Singaporean$y21st century 607 $aSingapore$vIn art 615 0$aNational characteristics, Singaporean. 615 0$aArt, Singaporean 676 $a959.57 700 $aLum$b Chee Hoo$0853503 702 $aLizeray$b Juliette Yu-Ming 702 $aTwardzik Ching$b Chor Leng 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910736023903321 996 $aReimagining Singapore$93574701 997 $aUNINA
