This essay is complemented by an extended interview with eminent art historian T.K Sabapathy about the future of public art in Singapore. In the second section, writers Selene Yap and Nicholas Lua examine artworks that lead the reader into myriad urban spaces, ranging from the construction of art spectacles to community-focused art at the fringes of mass housing and home interiors. As art in public space diversifies in its reach, durations, and affinities with multiple audiences, this volume asks what art in the public realm might mean for Singapore today, and what is at stake given the rapid transformation of its proverbial urban site.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style='box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; border: 0px; vertical-align: baseline; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: Calibri, Lato, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif, \"Lucida Grande\"; font-size: 20px; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);'\u003eThis publication is jointly published by URA and Real Estate Developers’ Association of Singapore; and designed by Hanson Ho of H55, an award-winning Singapore-based design studio.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Basheer Graphics","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43419540390100,"sku":"9789811834837","price":49.5,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1105\/7032\/products\/572_54c63be5-a377-4e5b-838f-4d52f456a4fa.jpg?v=1666738223","url":"https:\/\/www.basheergraphic.live\/products\/art-in-public-space","provider":"Basheer Graphics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
