A Historic moment

So - as i thought it would be another day after the opening of Theatreworks new place on the previous night.

Some quite nice events happened.

Chee Kian came by p-10 to have a look at the documentation of Koeh Sia Yong's talk.

He said that he was glad to have seen it as it was a historic moment. Then it hit me... hey! He's right - (always happen to overlook things since I get too hands on with projects that it kind of hit you after).

Anyhow - right. This was probably the ending which I was looking for - the difference between history, historicisation and chancing on the historic moment. I highlighted some of the concepts/points behind the Errata exhibition in the curatorial essay.

That historic moment, Koeh Sia Yong's talk - was a meeting point for a lot of the things which I was writing. In short, it was the meeting point for the "director", the "history book", the "artist", the "painting, the "researcher"... and somehow at the end of that - made it all worth while.
