Not Against Interpretation: Untitled

If names matter, what can we say about untitled artworks that seem to say nothing, or quite possibly everything? To what extent do titles, images and art-making processes attach meaning to art?

Untitled, the second edition in SAM’s Not Against Interpretation exhibition series, draws from the National Heritage Board’s collection of drawings, paintings, prints and sculptures by Singapore contemporary artists Cheo Chai Hiang, Chua Ek Kay, Goh Beng Kwan, Lim Tzay Chuen, Brother Joseph McNally, Anthony Poon, Tang Da Wu, Tang Mun Kit and Zai Kuning, amongst others. Visitors are invited to leave their suggestions of a suitable title for the untitled pieces.

Not Against Interpretation is an experimental platform to nurture an appreciation for contemporary art. The projects created on this platform exploit the ‘openness’ of contemporary art, the fact that it can be interpreted in many ways, as an opportunity to engage with people from varied backgrounds.
