The Business Times | Knockout shows at Singapore Art Gallery Weekend

Helmi Yusof, The Business Times, September 7, 2023

" MARQUEE names and young hotshots dominate the roster for this year’s Singapore Art Gallery Weekend, set to be the biggest and most immersive edition yet. Running from Sep 15 to Oct 1, the event features more than 30 art spaces showcasing some of their best artists and curators working across various disciplines.

 

Organised by Art Galleries Association Singapore (AGAS), the annual event is intended as a reminder of Singapore’s vibrant art gallery scene, one that comes alive not just in January during Singapore Art Week, but throughout the year and across the island.

 

A must-visit is Brandon Tay’s solo at Yeo Workshop. For several years now, he has been steadily creating provocative work in the genres of digital media, mediated sculpture and moving image. His future-ready art typically blurs the line between what’s real and virtual, what’s obviously beautiful and seemingly unprepossessing. "
