The Seminar – Don’t Teach Art

Tang Da Wu (b. 1943) is best known for his performance art and installations, though his practice extends across a broad range of media, including drawing, painting and sculpture. He often draws on mythological narratives to raise awareness of social and environmental issues through his work. Provocation and commentary lie at the core of his practice, alongside a keen attention to aesthetics. Tang is also the co-founder of The Artists’ Village, a leading contemporary art collective in Singapore that was established in the 1980s to encourage artists to create experimental art.
