SINGAPORE – Singaporean artist Robert Zhao’s A Guide To The Flora And Fauna Of The World has been acquired by the prestigious Tate collection in Britain.
Originally commissioned by the Singapore Biennale in 2013, Zhao’s work is an eccentric encyclopaedia cataloguing organisms changed by human intervention – from square apples in South Korea to the man-made flowerhorn cichlid (also known as the luohan).
