Session 3: Allegory and subtext in contemporary literature and
performing arts [Literature, Theatre, Music, Performance]

Colloquium: THE EMERGENCE AND VICISSITUDES OF AN ART SCENE

This colloquium cross-examines theoretical perspectives on the visual art, film, performance and literature modules of the project "Singapour mon amour" curated by Lowave. Thematic sessions according to these art genres will draw a bigger picture of the artistic creation in Singapore and will inscribe it into an international art discourse. As a young country, Singapore's art history is still in the process of being written and the colloquium aims to collect as many direct sources and witnesses as possible.
