* About OPEN * Meal: Arts Community

Starting for the month of March, Every Thursday night from 7-9pm for the month of March at food #03 (109, Rowell Road, telephone: 6396 7980)

We will have a volunteer from arts comm to sit in, advice or listen - anyone from the arts community can come in to talk about any problems or ideas.

How did it come about?
Basically, the premise of the idea came from two experiences. One was when I was in Germany, my guest picked up a hitchhiking German carpenter guildsmen (Zimmerman) - trained in a traditional carpentry where he must travel around and offer his services and work for food, boarding and cost of travel).

They told me of pubs in Germany which offered boarding and meals for the guildsmen in a pay-it-forward system where the first meal and boarding was paid forward by a guildsmen long ago and since then every meal and boarding was paid for by the previous guildsmen.

2nd experience came about when a peer from Cat Welfare Society (CWS) who informed their volunteers or members that someone from CWS would sit in every thursday at Food #03 evening to chat or give advice. Similar services were also offered by Chan Ming + Alvin from MIC Human Aid, who offered advice on humanitarian services.

So I thought, I would offer the first meal and drinks for the OPEN * Meal: arts community.

We will have a volunteer from arts comm to sit in, advice or listen - anyone from the arts comm can come in to talk about any problems or ideas.

Arts Comm members who come to OPEN * Meal will have a 20% off for their meals or drinks.

Reading with Tay Shi Ying: Debating Singapore

2010-12-26T14:31:00.000+08:00

Here is Shi Ying reading a text i have been reading about how an artist asking a journalist to write about her.

It shows a frame of mind that there is very little division between the work and the artist. Kind of suggesting that this is the same thing. But as we all know, good chefs have bad days and so do artists. Not every artwork is good / not every dish will turn out fine.

Enjoy the video and if you are interested to discuss this more please feel free to comment. If you wish to read this essay, it is at our shelf at Food #03-BenBino's. Feel free to read it but i can't lend anyone to bring home cause i am still using it for my paper.

Recital notes.

2010-12-14T03:27:00.001+08:00

This Friday, Post-Museum staged a Recital progrAm featuring jeff, kai and Yuzuru. Three different sound artists.

I recorded the whole gig and thinking of showing some of the pieces online.

I enjoyed the interaction of the three of them musically. Yuzuru was playing two string instruments, one sitar like instrument and the other was an Okinawa instrument, which I cannot recall the name at this point. Kai played from an assortment of 'analog' effects devices. While Jeff was sampling both their sounds and adding a layer on top of their sounds.

Overall, the recital model gives the space for people to focus and listen to their sounds.

Wish there were more audience who could experience the show. On that I m quite disappointed with the turn out.

Ok, nxt blog entry, I should talk about the round table discussion held at substation after I hear the recording.

Farewell, goodbye good morning uncle

2010-03-25T23:16:00.000+08:00

FinAlly, good morning uncle has finished his charge. As Serming predicted, he got a short 4 mth term.

So that's a relief. He is such a jovial guy and over the past 2 months, he has seem so sad as he was told that a maximum sentence is 7 years. I would see him gazing into spots and just trying to take it all in before he goes in. In fact, he was so sad that I dragged him in to ask Serming to give him a tarot reading to ease his mind.

Well, hope he is alright and we will miss his silly jokes. Most importantly, hope he makes the best of his freedom when he comes out.

Sign drop

2010-02-08T15:30:00.001+08:00

Was at food court at TOa payoh.

Cause got to go library n fix specs.

Wind so strong, I turned around n saw the signboard drop. With old lady pointing at sign.

So we watched for a while as people walk over it. Hesitated to pick it up as I was tempted to just watch. Until old lady walk towards it...

Thought she was goingg to pick it up, so I was going to stand up n pick the sign up. But realized she was walking over it fleeing the scene too. :)

A while later the staff of food court came n pick up the sign.

Reminded of the an old joke where world passes by.

UPDATES

1. Now till 2 Nov in Show Room: Exelcior Mortis: Recent Work by Jack Youngblood (UK) features work done in the past year while he was artist-in-residence in a Singaporean computer games design company.

The work also addresses such notions as ‘the hero’, ‘the beauty’, death and loss and is a development of the ‘old spaceman’ imagery that has constituted his other shows in Singapore. A parallel event of SB2008. Opened 6-10pm (Tue-Fri), 12-10pm (Sat+Sun), closed on Mon; free admission.

2. Food #03 is featured on Small Girl Big Appetite Episode 8 - http://sgba.tv - check it out!

Hey, long time no update.

As usual, being buszzzy bee.

This week has been rather eventful. The highlight was the malaysian artists visiting actually. (quite a few have visited because of the biennale).

This week we had visits from Yi-Chin, Chang Hwang, nansee. Also visiting was the fukuoka curators from the fukuoka asian art museum. (lots of nice chats there).

Later on today, osage bringing some people from philippines.

Just toying with the idea to put some portfolios at Food #03 since so many curators come, it will be nice to let them have a look at some singapore artist works.

2008-10-23T06:47:00.001+08:00

2008-10-20T18:15:00.001+08:00

I am at the library (TPY) with Jen.

REading and researching on one of the new projects. (A design and art one).

Any suggestions? then played around with the webcam and uploading the recordings onto facebook.

Now that is fun. Now we can use it to make small videos. And also quick recording!

At TPY, it is quite noisy and people are making lots of sounds and talking.

and students doing their homework. (i thought that the library is against that?)

Good news, FOI is going to happen again soon. So for those fans of the performance festival! And of course, the Fetterfield festival.

It is happening soon. ( NOV ) I suppose.

Transmission out.

Making things clearer

2008-08-15T03:18:00.001+08:00

Realised that people don't often take the time to find out about things or to read carefully. No matter whether it is out of haste, negligence, laziness or a lack of interest, we still need to try to make things clearer whenever possible.

Here are some clarifications regarding p-10 and Post-Museum:

1. p-10 is not Post-Museum.
2. Post-Museum is not run by p-10 though p-10 was an initiator of the project.
3. p-10 does not run any project space now but still functions as a curatorial team. p-10 is currently the resident curatorial team in Post-Museum.
4. Post-Museum is not an artists-run space but an independent cultural centre focusing on contemporary culture (arts, design, architecture, etc) and its relationship to society.
5. Post-Museum is not funded by NAC and is a social enterprise.

Hope this helps. Do let us know if you have any questions.

Dear friend,
Here are 3 events happening elsewhere in Singapore this week we recommend:

1. Opening: Thu (19 June), 7pm
HanoiHaiku
By Sherman Ong
2902 (11 Mt Sophia Old School)
Free

HanoiHaiku is presented like a visual Haiku. Intentionally left untitled, the juxtaposition of images produces their own narratives, temporal connections, and is open to many interpretations infused with the personal experiences of individual viewers. Part of Month of Photography. Till 5 July.


2. Opening: Sun (22 June), 2pm
A Bowl of Rice
By Zai Kuning
Sculpture Sq (Middle Rd)
Free

Zai is creating two geometric drawings across the gallery space, using an estimated 5000kg of rice. The public is invited to attend the exhibition with a humble contribution of a bowl of rice - or two - which will eventually be donated to voluntary welfare organisations. Till 13 July.


3. Now – 13 July
The End Depends On The Beginning. The Beginning Depends On The End.
By Heman Chong
Third Floor-Hermès (541 Orchard Rd Liat Towers)
10.30am- 7.30pm daily
Free

Inspired by the last paragraphs found in a selection of novels read in the past year, Chong investigates the philosophies, reasons and methods of individuals and communities imagining the future. Here, he is fascinated with the idea of the end of things, utilizing both the form and content of these ‘book ends’ to compose the series of objects on display.


Check these out and have a nice week ahead!

more schools who are interested in this programme, so if you are, do
contact us to arrange a session.

Also, for one night only, this Sat (7 June) from 7-10pm in Post-Museum

Yes, let's get together!

2008-05-21T04:21:00.003+08:00

Lots of things happening these days.

One thing, we finally put up the glass replacement and that cost us a whopping $350.

Crazy and all that is really unforseen costs.

We really need to start some fund raising - to get the Post-Museum fund started. At this moment, many things are still from our own pockets.

Yes, sometimes, the crazy things we do.

Post-Museum is looking for people to join the PM team - and grow with us, grow the arts and culture! It is not a job - more of a part-time position, no we don't have funds to pay for any work done yet.

So we are looking for people who believe in what PM stands for - and interested in whatever small way, which you can contribute, part-time, full-time, -- remember, META computing, this is META - Building for Post-Museum.

Give us a call, email or a shout-out!

Art show aimed at shattering social barriers has barrier shattered

2008-04-24T01:51:00.000+08:00

On 22nd April 2008, the Post-Museum staff arrives at work shocked to find that the gallery window shattered. The police was alerted immediately and after the investigation, the case was categorised as mischief as no artworks were stolen from the exhibition.

This incident has left the artists, friends and the staff at Post-Museum wondering if this was just a freak incident or a member of public who finds the exhibition too offensive for their liking.

Artist, Eileen A. Reynolds commented that "When I first heard about this incident, I asked myself if it could be someone who feels strongly against Joan's work?" The exhibition, Influx, features the work of Eileen A. Reynolds and Joan Kelly is based on portraits of foreign workers, prostitutes and maids.

Could the broken window be the handiwork of someone who finds the work insulting, degrading or a little obscene for their liking? At this point, there are no suspects but fortunately the neighborhood residents have been alerted and some volunteered to keep a watch out for any suspicious characters hanging around Post-Museum when the staff goes home.

Sadly, replacing the broken glass window will now eat into Post-Musuem's limited resources. Woon Tien Wei, curatorial team at the Post-Museum commented that, "Art can make people do strange things, I understand that completely. If you are unhappy with the artwork, talk to the artist, blog about it, discuss with friends. Replacing the window will cost us quite a bit of money. Especially at this time when prices of everything is going up. I 'd rather spend it on developing more meaningful cultural programmes for the public."

Despite all the commotion surrounding this incident, the show will go on, Influx will run until 28 April.

synopsis on exhibition:

Eileen Anastasia Reynolds and Joan Kelly present a body of work that critiques, celebrates and reflects upon the multifarious nature of Singapore's working communities. They approach their subject from two singular perspectives, but with a shared consciousness of their own expatriate status in Singapore, as educators at the Nanyang Technological University.

The painterly exuberance of Joan's painted portraits evinces her emotional involvement with the subject matter. The prostitutes, construction site workers and taxi drivers all seem to reflect back the charm with which they are perceived. This is in contrast to the objective distance on display in Eileen's photographs and videos of the same subject matter. However, it is distance made intimate by the whimsical digital manipulations and editing strategies that she employs.

These two artists are connected by little more than their subject matter yet together their work produces an engaging synthesis: mutable and complex, contradictory and in flux.

Please come and support us @ Post-Museum, 109 Rowell Road.

updates?

2007-10-25T04:02:00.001+08:00

Well, been so busy -- that's how these blog entries beginning to sound the same old same old.

Anyhow, so let's start again, we are moving into Post-Museum over this past few weeks and kept ourselves busy with all these details.

And kind souls have been telling us that the place is nice and supportive as well - by coming to Food #03 -- the veg place @ Post-Museum. We really appreciate that.

Time to look at the long term involvement with Post-Museum and we really want to work with the community(not just the cultural community but in a broader sense) to keep this space (attitude) and find reason to keep this spirit alive.

We are still an independent space and hope that all who cares enough to keep it that way, keep supporting us and spreading the word of this new project, Post-Museum.

We are not interested in keeping this space to p-10 but want to share and grow Post-Museum to be something meaningful in this time.

setting up for Happy Together

2007-07-20T14:43:00.001+08:00

We have been busy setting up the exhibition at Notthatbalai.

It took a little longer than we expected but we push forward :)

Busy also with the renovation -- and all the licensing still quite stressful situation. -- trying to get online and submitting applications and co-ordinating.

Actually, I suspect this is just the few times which we have to do some much home stuff away from home. Literally, a mobile office set up.

Anyway, hope to get more pics to upload next time and you can see how things are here!

Oh yes, Sze-Chin, Bruce and Lisa Kelly is also in KL. That's quite fun to see each other here.

ok, write more later.

Arrived at KL -- setting up the show.

2007-07-17T02:24:00.000+08:00

Jen and myself arrive in KL, we were delayed a little due to somethings cropping up with the renovations.

But we managed and got on the bus... although, I had to get Sze-Chin to the bus station to pick up mini-dv tape for his work.

Silly, me forgot to pass that on to him.

Anyway, more updates, I hope... I am on some very 'weak' connection in this hotel.

Among other issues, this exhibition is an attempt to highlight the ‘green’ nature of found objects, ie. a conservationist approach to artmaking through recycling, reusing and reducing. The exhibition runs till 5 August.

2. Screening: Thu to Sat (19 to 21 July), 8pm

Invisible City

Thu: University Cultural Centre, NUS; Fri: 72-13; Sat: The Substation

Free

This new documentary by Tan Pin Pin chronicles the ways people attempt to leave a mark before they and their histories disappear. From an intrepid Japanese journalist hunting down Singaporean war veterans to an avid amateur film director trying to preserve his decaying trove of Singapore footage, Tan draws out hopes and regrets of these protagonists as they attempt immortality. Through footage and photos rarely seen until now, we begin to perceive faint silhouettes of a City that could have been. For more info, see http://invisiblecity.sg/.

3. Talk: Sat (21 July), 11am

History of Photography

Arts House (1 Old Parliament Lane)

Part of Month of Photography 2007.
