Visual Art: Project Art Hunter newly opens at Tanjong Pagar Distripark

On the fourth floor of Tanjong Pagar Distripark, amid concrete corridors, river-facing windows, and Singapore’s steadily growing arts enclave, a new independent art space has quietly opened its doors. Project Art Hunter is not a gallery in the conventional sense. There are no sales pitches, no white-cube theatrics. Instead, it offers something slower, more personal: an invitation to live with art, even if only for … Continue reading Visual Art: Project Art Hunter newly opens at Tanjong Pagar Distripark

Visual Art: National Gallery Singapore’s ‘Fear No Power – Women Imagining Otherwise’

There is an intriguing double meaning embedded in the title of National Gallery Singapore’s latest exhibition. Fear No Power: Women Imagining Otherwise is not only an act of defiance against entrenched systems of authority; it is also a quiet injunction directed inward. To fear no power is to recognise one’s own capacity to act, imagine, and effect change. Across five artistic practices, the exhibition foregrounds … Continue reading Visual Art: National Gallery Singapore’s ‘Fear No Power – Women Imagining Otherwise’

Visual Art: IMBA to present over 130 original Botero works at Gardens by the Bay and Shangri-La Singapore

It is a city of angels perpetually shadowed by its own Mara; its doubts, temptations, desires, missteps. Few people understand this duality as intimately as Prof. Dr. Apinan Poshyananda, the driving force behind the Bangkok Art Biennale (BAB) for … Continue reading Arts of Thailand: An Interview with Dr Apinan Poshyananda on the state of contemporary art in Thailand, and Bangkok Art Biennale 2026

Dib Bangkok: Bangkok’s newest art museum brings the unseen, the unsaid and the unknown into focus with opening exhibition ‘Invisible Presence’

BANGKOK, THAILAND – There is something a little daunting about reaching Dib Bangkok’s location for the first time. Down a narrow, nondescript alleyway, the GrabBike we’re on slows, hesitates, and seems to take a moment to register what lies ahead before riding off. A large, gated building emerges, its blackened exterior giving little away, with only a narrow opening through which to enter the premises … Continue reading Dib Bangkok: Bangkok’s newest art museum brings the unseen, the unsaid and the unknown into focus with opening exhibition ‘Invisible Presence’
