Becoming Lim Tze Peng

This bilingual publication accompanies National Gallery Singapore's solo exhibition on the renowned centennial artist, Lim Tze Peng. It features a remarkable selection of artworks spanning from 1946 to 2023, drawing from Lim’s personal collection and masterpieces held in public collections. Through Lim's landscapes, mindscapes and “heartscapes,” this volume, alongside the exhibition, offers a profound exploration of his artistic journey. The book brings together new writings by leading experts on the artist, excerpts from unpublished interviews with the artist and rare archival materials—many published for the first time. They chart key chapters (or “terrains”) in Lim's long artistic journey while serving as an essential source for future research on the artist. 新加坡国家美术馆为百岁艺术家林子平个展出版了这本中英双语图录。图录中精选了林子平自1946年至2023年间的作品，涵盖了他个人收藏及公共机构的典藏。通过林子平作品中呈现的自然人文风景、心灵景观和思想面貌，本书配合展览一起深入探讨了他丰富的艺术历程。书中汇集了资深学者的最新撰文，未发表的子平访谈片段，以及许多首次公开的珍贵档案材料，描绘了子平漫长艺术生涯中的重要篇章（或“地貌”），并为未来的相关研究提供了重要参考。
