June 7 – November 22
Singapore Pavilion, Venice
Berlin-based Singaporean artist Ming Wong represents the Singapore Pavilion at the 53rd Venice Biennale in his solo show, ‘Life of Imitation’. He revisits Singapore’s golden age cinema in the 50s and 60s – which has been little known to the world – and presents in three multi-screen video installations, the legacy of Singapore’s socio-political and multi-ethnic transitions before independence in 1965. The Singapore Pavilion is located at Palazzo Michiel del Brusá within a 14th-century palazzo on the Grand Canal near the Rialto.
