Marking its 10th anniversary and Singapore’s 60th year of independence, National Gallery Singapore presents the full opening of Singapore Stories: Pathways and Detours in Art — the first major rehang of the DBS Singapore Gallery since its inception in 2015, and a bold rethinking of how Singapore’s art history is told.
Expanded in scope and reimagined across newly configured spaces on the entire second floor of the Gallery’s City Hall Wing, the new exhibition will present a layered, artist-centred narrative of Singapore’s history through art. Featuring over 400 artworks and artefacts — from iconic masterpieces to rarely seen works from the National Collection — it spotlights artists’ multi-faceted lives, practices, and perspectives to reveal how artistic life in Singapore has always been more expansive, porous, and deeply human than previously recognised in past exhibitions of art from Singapore.
