In recent years, art collectives and independent art spaces have increasingly engaged with exhibition-making, giving rise to different approaches to curating that catalysed cultural and artistic activity in their localities. This will be further highlighted through the programming of Esplanade’s Visual Arts in 2022, with a key programming focus on featuring collaborative forms of exhibition-making alongside collectives and artist-run spaces. This conversation outlines the various activities and visions of each entity, and reflects on how collaborative models of production have impacted artistic and curatorial practice especially in the context of Singapore and Southeast Asia.
