Art of Our Time
Group Exhibition Singapore Art Museum, Singapore

Artists: TANG Da Wu 唐大雾 | 

Since its inauguration in 1996, Singapore Art Museum has been collecting art from Singapore and other Southeast Asian countries. Over time, it has grown to be the world’s largest public collection of 20th-century art from the region.

Art of Our Time showcases a selection of modern and contemporary works from the Museum’s permanent collection produced from the turn of the 20th-century until the present. Collected for their historical significance and importance, these works, through the artist’s interpretation of their environment and events in their lives, offer glimpses into the respective country’s social, economic and political developments. Divided into two sections, Unyielding Passion: 8 Masters of Singapore Art explores developments in Singapore art through the works of eight artists while Of Tides and Times: Encounters with Southeast Asian Art, in adopting a thematic approach, looks at art within the region’s cultural diversities.
