Art Stage Singapore seems to have established itself as that annual January event to kickstart the region’s art engine. If Art Stage itself met with mixed reviews, this year Singapore had a lot to offer outside the fair as well. Right now, there’s the APB Foundation Signature Art Prize Finalists, ‘Still Moving’, and ‘Medium At Large’ exhibitions at Singapore Art Museum, a solo exhibition of Suzann Victor’s work from her residency at STPI, La Salle College\u00a0of the Arts’ 30th Anniversary exhibition ‘Modern Love’, and a good collection of exhibitions at Artspace@Helutrans (Arndt, Galerie Steph, Ikkan, RK Fine Art). Goodman Arts Centre opened its studio doors for\u00a0an open house; and of course, there was the very successful crowd-pulling ‘Art After Dark’ event at Gillman Barracks, which must have\u00a0seen a record number of visitors this year \u2013\u00a0collectors were not pleased having to\u00a0jostle with the masses, but the not-your-usual-art crowd queueing up to see Gilbert and George, Ding Yi and Rina Banerjee among other excitements, was pretty impressed! Bravo to the organisers – hopefully some of the traffic will keep trickling through to\u00a0support the galleries at Gillman Barracks.<\/p>\n

Two strong photography-based\u00a0exhibitions we managed to catch were Nguan<\/a>‘s ‘How Loneliness Goes’\u00a0at ION Art Gallery, and ‘A Tree With Too Many Branches’ by Ang Song Nian at DECK<\/a>\u00a0managed\u00a0by 2902<\/a>.<\/p>\n

For Singapore, this is only the beginning, and doubtless we’ll find ourselves down there again this year. We’re looking forward to the opening of The National Gallery of Singapore slated for September\/November this year as well as the next edition of Singapore Biennale.<\/p>\n
