NTU Centre for Contemporary Art Singapore (NTU CCA), a leading nonprofit organization in Southeast Asia for artistic research, residencies, and exhibitions, will shutter its seven-year-old facilities at the Gillman Barracks arts precinct in March 2021. The closure is due to a funding shortfall that resulted from the decision of NTU CCA’s primary co-funders, the Nanyang Technological University and Economic Development Board, to decrease their monetary support. After the platform’s last show, featuring films by Trinh T. Minh-ha, ends on February 28, 2021, the organization will be pared down to a single research and administrative office, an online archive, and a final publication about its projects to date.
