2019’s Rules of Engagement was an exhibition-event that engaged the implicit rules of the art world as related to public spaces. Taking place over the SG Biennale opening weekend exhibition at The Substation’s SADBar as part of their year-long A Public Square programming. 20 artists were allocated a small square footprint between 10 cm and 40cm and asked to create an artwork that responded to the theme of A Public Square. Both artists and the audience were asked to comply with the Rules of Engagement during 4 vernissage/finnasage events. Rules of Engagement received an Open Call grant from The Substation to help facilitate the exhibition which included 20 local and international artists.
