Friday afternoon at the National Gallery Singapore, sharing my passion of South East Asian art with my visitors

The well-filled space....the well-cut silence

Making sense of the world of abstract (literally and figuratively).

If you only have time for one museum, make it the @nationalgallerysingapore. The 64,000sqm Gallery is spread across the former City Hall and Supreme Court buildings, two national monuments which have been beautifully restored and transformed. The two buildings are connected by two link bridges located in the atrium of the buildings. Besides housing the world’s largest public collection of modern art from Singapore and Southeast Asia, the Gallery is also home to restaurants like three Michelin-starred @odetterestaurant, one Michelin-starred @artdidaniele and National Kitchen by @violetoonsingapore.

건물의 옛모습을 최대한 그대로 보존하려고 노력한 흔적이 곳곳에 보여서 신기했다... 근데 시청건물인데 이렇게나 고급 원목을 가져다 썼다니 😂 도서관마저 고급스러움 그잡채 !! 천장에 햇살이 들어 탑층에선 눕거나 앉아서 쉴 수도 있다. 옥상마저 예쁜 😌😌 그야말로 꿈의 미술관 🖼🏛 꽤나 커서 반나절을 빠듯하게 돌아서 겨우 봤다. 천천히 하루를 다 투자해도 괜찮을듯하다. 2023.07.30 ~ 2023.08.03 #싱가포르관광지

Meet the Wild Child, a young boy who is wild about nature. From tiny animals to ginormous plants, his quest is to protect and care for them all. One day, he spots a gloomy scene that tells the story of a wild tale where animals are being chased by flames to the edge of a cliff. Full of zeal and hope, the Wild Child uses his wildly creative ideas to change the ending of the tale. Join us for our upcoming Art Alive! session at @nationalgallerysingapore next Saturday where we will bring 𝘽𝙤𝙨𝙘𝙝𝙗𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙙 (𝙁𝙤𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙩 𝙁𝙞𝙧𝙚) by Raden Saleh to life through storytelling.
