Singapore Art Museum
Last week I visited the Singapore Art Museum. Before I went I actually had no idea what type of art was on display there but I was curious to take a look.
I am not an art aficionado but I do enjoy wandering around galleries. The art on display here was all by local artists from Singapore, the Philippines, Cambodia, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia and so on. It was in the main, I guess, what I would describe as modern art. Though I admit I am not an art expect so apologies if I'm incorrect in my assessment.
The museum is housed in the former St Joseph's Institution, a Catholic boys' school that was relocated in 1987. It is a beautiful building of the kind (along with shophouses) that I so admire in Singapore.
I have to be honest and say that not all of the art was to my own personal taste. I'm sure though I'm not alone in finding some pieces more appealing than others in the museum.
