Post-Production Fever

An artist's book published for Post-Production Fever, Ho Rui An's solo exhibition organised by A+ Works of Art at ArtSpace@Helutrans, Singapore, 13 July to 11 August 2024. It gathers the deindustrialised factory, the downstream operations of the oil industry, and the post-production of cinematic and machine-generated images into three groupings: FACTORY—CINEMA—CELL, OFFICE—COMPUTER—PIXEL, and STUDIO—CLOUD—NOISE. Alongside Zian Chen's “Staging the Factory, Framing History: Chinese Industrial Labour On and Off Screen,” the artist's “Between Two Trees: Botany, Petroleum and the Politics of Scenography in Singapore,” and “Notes on A History of Intelligence in Singapore” written with Clara Che Wei Peh, it carries image archives on Chinese factories, oil media and the global city, and a fold-out chronology. Edition of 500.
