Singapore Screening Spaces (1896 – 1945) by Wong Han Min and Yeo Min Hui
$60.00
Singapore Screening Spaces is a documentation of archives and affection. It charts approximately half a century of Singapore’s film exhibition spaces from the year 1896—when the first traveling cinema appeared in Singapore—to 1945, when cinemas resumed operations after the end of World War II. This image-packed book, born out of an extensive private collection of printed materials, pays tribute to our film pioneers, presents a visually compelling picture of Singapore’s film exhibition history, and contributes towards place-making in Singapore.
