Five shows to see during Singapore Art Week

Singapore Art Week features five notable exhibitions, including a retrospective of Basoeki Abdullah at the National Gallery Singapore, which explores his role as a high-society painter and cultural diplomat during his time in Singapore from 1958 to 1960. Other highlights include STPI's The Print Show, a new platform for printmaking featuring 27 artists and international publishers, and a collaborative project between Rockbund Art Museum and Art SG titled Wan Hai Hotel: Singapore Strait, which presents maritime-themed works by artists across Asia.

Singapore cements its role as a hub for art—and artists—in Southeast Asia

Singapore is solidifying its position as a central hub for Southeast Asian art, supported by government initiatives, established institutions like the National Gallery Singapore and Singapore Art Museum, and major events such as Art SG, the Singapore Biennale, and Singapore Art Week. While other regional hubs like Jakarta, Bangkok, and Manila are growing, Singapore uniquely fosters a pan-Southeast Asian focus, attracting collectors and artists from across the region. However, recent closures of smaller independent spaces like Sàn Art in Saigon and Your Mother Gallery in Singapore, along with the absorption of S.E.A. Focus into Art SG, have impacted the independent scene, though new venues such as Bangkok Kunst-halle and Vũ Dân Tân Museum offer fresh opportunities.

Singapore Art Week captures the many sides of this multi-faceted city

Singapore Art Week (SAW) 2026 showcases the city-state's multifaceted identity through a diverse range of artistic offerings. Highlights include the second iteration of Wan Hai Hotel, adapted from Shanghai's Rockbund Art Museum, which explores themes of water, migration, and diaspora with artists like Ho Tzu Nyen, Dawn Ng, and Robert Zhao Renhui. The premier art fair Art SG (23-25 January) runs alongside S.E.A. Focus, aiming to boost market access and solidify Singapore as a hub for Southeast Asian art.
