Instead of relying solely on photographs to look back at the past, this collective exhibition, Beyond the Brush: Sixty Years On, explores an alternative approach by reminiscing through captivating impressionistic paintings instead.
The group show highlights the artistic endeavours of renowned second-generation Singapore Nanyang artists such as Ang Ah Tee, Koeh Sia Yong, and Tan Choh Tee. These impressionist artists capture scenes of Singapore using nothing but paint brushes and canvases, offering a look into Singapore's vibrant heritage and history while revealing the distinctive artistic paths they've journeyed through from the past to the present.
Keep an eye out for an exclusive video installation that captures the artists' heartfelt reunion over a delightful steamboat meal. In it, they fondly reminisce about the past sixty years of their careers and lives as esteemed professionals in Singapore's art scene.
