Chua Ek Kay
Chua Ek Kay is regarded as one of Singapore’s leading ink practitioners, celebrated for his distinctive visual vocabulary that bridges Chinese ink painting traditions and Western aesthetics. The catalogue, Chua Ek Kay: After the Rain, accompanies an exhibition at National Gallery Singapore that gathers a collection of works presenting momentous inflections in over three decades of the artist’s prolific practice. Essays illuminate Chua Ek Kay’s approaches to ink painting and underscore his contributions to its development in Singapore. The catalogue also includes a heretofore unpublished manuscript interview by Chua discovered posthumously in his study, as well as reflections by Mrs Chua Ek Kay.

The Venice Biennale and the Asia-Pacific in the Global Art World
This monograph uses the national pavilions of the Venice Biennale as a vehicle to examine the development of international contemporary art trends within the Asia-Pacific region, including Australia, Japan and Korea and 16 additional national entities who have had less continuous participation in this global art event. Analysing both the spatial and visual representation of contemporary art presented at the Venice Biennale and incorporating the politics behind national selections, this monograph provides insights into a range of important elements of the global art industry. Areas analysed include national cultural trends and strategies, the inversion of the peripheral to the centre stage of the Biennale, geopolitics in gaining exhibition space at the Venice Biennale, curatorial practices for contemporary art presentation and artistic trends that seek to deal with major economic, cultural, religious and environmental issues emerging from non-European art centres. This monograph will be of interest to scholars in art history, museum studies and Asia-Pacific cultural history.

Imaging Selves
"Imaging Selves features up to one hundred artworks presented in two hangings lasting nine months for each part. The Museum possesses a large number of portraits which deserve showing, and these have inspired our curators to develop the exhibition along the central theme of human representation. The exhibition's theme is a fitting start to the Singapore Art Museum Collection Exhibition Series. The title, Imaging Selves, alludes to visual artists as image makers as well as to the representation of the human subject. We introduce, with this inauguration of the series, the practices of Southeast Asian artists, their perceptions of themselves and others in their environment, their notion of identity, and their artistic approaches and attitudes to the human figure."--Excerpt from foreword, Dr Earl Lu
