Artistic Exchange
Tatler Singapore|December 2024
When international art fair Art SG returns for its third edition, from January 17 to 19 (with a VIP preview and vernissage on January 16), at the Sands Expo and Convention Centre in Marina Bay Sands, it will bring together more than just the leading galleries from the region and around the world, but also present a dynamic programme in collaboration with four cultural partners: Bangkok Kunsthalle, Delfina Foundation, M Art Foundation and Art Outreach.

The year 2025 is even more special as Singapore celebrates 60 years of independence. “Over the past six decades, Singapore’s arts landscape has flourished, marked by a growing appreciation for art collection and a vibrant cultural scene, and as the wider context for Singapore, Southeast Asia and the Indo-Pacific becomes ever more relevant,” says Art SG co-founder Magnus Renfrew. “Singapore, situated at the heart of Asia, is a key destination for galleries aiming to broaden their reach. With its strategic location, role as a regional hub and dedication to cultivating a multifaceted art scene, the city serves as a gateway to this expanding art market.”

Among the 106 exhibitors from 30 countries and territories showcasing the best of their gallery programmes are returning international galleries such as Gagosian, White Cube and Thaddaeus Ropac, as well as those from the region including STPI, Fost Gallery and Bangkok Citycity Gallery. Meanwhile, Haridas Contemporary (Singapore), Baik Art (Los Angeles, Seoul, Jakarta) and Sun Contemporary (Bali) are participating in the fair for the first time.
