Synopsis:

National Gallery Singapore celebrates the life and work of Singapore-born sculptor and printmaker Kim Lim (1936 – 1997) with Kim Lim: The Space Between. A Retrospective. Running from 27 September 2024 to 2 February 2025, this landmark exhibition presents over 150 works, marking Lim's most comprehensive major museum exhibition to date.
This retrospective underscores the role of Lim's cultural in-betweenness in shaping her artistic style and her resistance to pressures of identity determinations. Trace the evolution of her practice, and see her unique approach to Minimalism, influenced by material cultures encountered during her extensive travels. Experience an in-depth showcase featuring key sculptures and prints spanning four decades, along with maquettes, never-before-seen photographs.

Gain new insights into her artistic journey, philosophy, and creative relationships, and see how she relied on the power of suggestion and metaphor, to masterfully balance space, light, and rhythm to great effect.
