Once seen as a quiet stopover, Singapore has transformed into one of Asia’s most exciting art capitals. The city now pulses with a mix of bold young galleries, seasoned players, and ambitious platforms drawing global attention. At the center of this surge is ART SG, Southeast Asia’s largest and most high-profile art fair, and its satellite fair S.E.A. Focus, as well as Singapore Gallery Month, which this year marks its first-ever, community-led celebration. Running until September 14, this fifth edition gathers over 30 galleries in a month-long festival of exhibitions, talks, workshops, artist studio visits, collectors’ home tours, and a pop-up bazaar selling accessible art and collectibles.
