Dr Tan Chee Lay: New Ink Work

Earlier this spring, poet-scholar Prof. Tan Chee Lay took part in Zhejiang Shaoxing’s Lanting Book Festival, and held his inaugural overseas solo calligraphy and painting exhibition. His exceptional work was widely appreciated for its artistic innovation, embodying the spirit of creativity in calligraphy and painting. Such artistic accomplishment has been highly inspiring for artists and students alike, leading to his appointment as Visiting Professor at the School of Art, Shaoxiang University.

Returning to Singapore, he plans to share his latest Chinese ink paintings with his fellow countrymen, fostering deeper exchanges of ideas and igniting further creativity and passion in the local art scene.

When: 3 - 23 Aug 2024, 12.30pm - 5.30pm, Sundays by appointment only
