Through the 90-odd paintings in this book, Teng Jee Hum hopes to share his feelings about what it has been like to be a Singaporean in the last 50 years or so. Many of the images are the artist’s take on the first Prime Minister of Singapore and his policies in governing Singapore.
Critiques of Teng’s work are included in this book. They are written by:
SENG YU JIN, Senior Curator at The National Gallery;
MEI HUANG, China-born curator, writer and art critic.
JASON WEE, artist and a writer, who co-curated the acclaimed Beyond LKY exhibition in 2010;
There is also a Q&A section where the artist explains more about his fascination with the key subject of his art.
