Focus: In only 5 years, Singapore’s very first private museum has become a name that is often associated with the most refreshing line up of events and exhibitions that celebrate the best of art, design, fashion and life. The brainchild of Jasmine Tay, this award-winning Museum of Art & Design (MAD) has evolved from making art accessible to the masses to include strong support for emerging Asian artists in every discipline. This year, it will also accord more focus towards design such as architecture & interior and antique craftsmanship. MAD will also be initiating a first of its kind event in Asia – Design Stage –to showcase the best in design around the region. This is yet another indication that there is a method in the madness that underlies the museum’s progressive insight into where the future of the art industry is headed. |
