About the Work
This exhibition catalogue was produced on the occasion of the exhibition, Chances of Contact: Contemporary Prints from the Philippines and Singapore, jointly organised by STPI and The M, co-presented by Singtel Group, in collaboration with the Singapore Embassy in Manila.
Leading contemporary art space in Singapore, STPI – Creative Workshop & Gallery, is proud to be presenting Chances of Contact: Contemporary Prints from the Philippines and Singapore at the Metropolitan Museum of Manila, also known as The M, in conjunction with the 55th anniversary of bilateral relations between Singapore and the Philippines.
Co-presented by Singtel Group from 23 August to 26 October 2024, this joint exhibition featuring STPI's works by artists from both nations has sparked between the two art institutions in collaboration with the Singapore Embassy in Manila, who understood the significance of putting this show together.
Curated by Patrick Flores, Deputy Director of Curatorial & Research at National Gallery of Singapore and, up till 2022, the Professor of Art History and Criticism at the University of the Philippines, the exhibition focuses on works produced by 16 artists – 8 from Singapore and 8 from the Philippines – during their respective artist residencies at STPI. Guided by his curatorial interpretation, the exhibition offers new ways of seeing the art of print and paper from both countries through the selection of works that reflect the intersection of different time periods, mediums and art forms.
