This lecture examines different types of artists' collectives and how collectivism influences the ways artists think about and make art.
It traces the shifts in the Singapore art scene from "organisational collectivism" that sought to professionalise art, to "exhibition collectivism" that championed group exhibitions, and "collaborative collectivism" that created opportunities for artists to collaborate.
