The Artists Village (TAV) is a Singapore-based contemporary art group. It is known as Singapore's first art colony, founded by contemporary artist Tang Da Wu in 1988. TAV is historicised as having produced significant shifts in the history of Singapore's contemporary art, known for its engagement with societal changes and issues through late-1980s and 1990s Singapore, with a particular emphasis on performance art, installation art, and process-based work. Some figures closely associated with TAV, apart from Tang, include Amanda Heng and Lee Wen. TAV's original space from 1988 to 1990 was a chicken farm at Lorong Gambas in Ulu Sembawang, which has since been redeveloped.

  • The Artists Village (TAV) is a Singapore-based contemporary art group. It is known as Singapore's first art colony, founded by contemporary artist Tang Da Wu in 1988. TAV is historicised as having produced significant shifts in the history of Singapore's contemporary art, known for its engagement with societal changes and issues through late-1980s and 1990s Singapore, with a particular emphasis on performance art, installation art, and process-based work. Some figures closely associated with TAV, apart from Tang, include Amanda Heng and Lee Wen. TAV's original space from 1988 to 1990 was a chicken farm at Lorong Gambas in Ulu Sembawang, which has since been redeveloped. Members of the Village were among the earliest Contemporary artists in Singapore to practice installation and performance art. At the Village, younger artists were informed about artistic developments unfolding internationally, often mentored by Tang. Exhibitions, Happenings, and symposia were organised at the Village, and collaborations were embarked upon with the then-National Museum Art Gallery and the National Arts Council's Singapore Festival of Arts. In 2008, the Singapore Art Museum held the retrospective, The Artist Village: 20 Years On, a 20th anniversary exhibition that sought to examine the "tensions, disjuncture and collision of the individual and collective memories of TAV" as a collective that had "engendered radical shifts in contemporary art throughout the 80s and 90s".
