The Biennale is back! On our usual movie day, we went to Old Parliament house instead. With 45 mins left till closing, it didn't make sense for us to pay the $10 entry, fortunately the Showcase Singapore Exhibition was on, for the first 2 days only, so today's the last day. I might go back later! Twenty-three major international galleries have been invited to exhibit the best work available on the primary and secondary markets from around the world. There was some mind-boggling stuff on display, which made us wonder "How did they even think of that?"
We didn't even have time to go through everything in the Showcase. The clock struck 8 too soon. So this is just the tip of the iceberg, the start of a series. I think I will just let the pictures do the talking from here.
In the photo below is my personal favorite from yesterday, titled Cold War, a take on the geopolitical situation in the 1970s, when the world was divided into 2 ideological blocs. It features a world map sculpted out of bronze and connected to an air con cooling radiator, so the bronze is literally frozen cold, and droplets of melted water continuously drip down onto the tray below, like tears from a sad-eyed maiden.
