http://elephantparade.com/elephants/stop-asians-ahead#.Twk8A9AISfQ.gmail We present this elephant in its full strength and glory as a metaphor, embodying the might of "New Asia", representing the global shift from West to East with the emergence of the powerful forces of China and India. The elephant has been symbolically split into two halves, each side representing China and India respectively; Mao and Gandhi, being the two major icons of each of these nations, are seen to be initiating a narrative of what challenges New Asia faces as it marches ahead ruling the 21st century. This elephant embodies an enthusiasm for our New Asia and our modern world and I hope it shall be a very colorful and somewhat thought provoking part of the first ever Asian installation of The Elephant Parade in Singapore.

I CAN'T RESIST to pass the information on, even though I left Singapore just before the opening ....Next time..

The museum adds a brainy element to the Las Vegas-style Marina Bay Sands development, which includes a casino, 2,561-room hotel, seven restaurants from big-name chefs and a park on the roof. Some design features are a tribute to the museum’s content. For example, the lotus-blossom-shaped building funnels rainwater from the roof via a 115-foot waterfall through the central atrium to a lily pond in the lobby and, later, the restrooms. About 50,000 square feet of interior exhibition space covers the creative overlap of artistic and scientific invention, including a suspended model of Leonardo da Vinci’s flying machine.

SINGAPOUR DEBAT SUR L’ART - Rencontre avec un des acteurs de la place artistique Écrit par florence notte 0 Commentaires Alors que la Biennale d’Art contemporain* a ouvert ses portes ce dimanche, le galeriste François Grossas nous livre son opinion sur la place et l’évolution de l’Art à Singapour Travaillant dans le monde de la finance, François a commencé à collectionner des œuvres d’Art à Washington. Il faudra attendre son second séjour à Singapour pour que l’idée d’ouvrir une galerie prenne vraiment forme. Galerie Waterton ouvre ses portes en 2009 et se spécialisera dans la peinture du Sud Est Asiatique. François avouera qu’il est rentré dans le monde de l’Art grâce et à cause de la peinture indonésienne qu’il trouve très créative contrairement à celle du Vietnam trop imitative à son gout. Il assiste alors au premier Art Singapore Show, en 2000, fréquente de nombreuses galeries implantées à l‘époque dans des shop- houses et y rencontre des collectionneurs, peu nombreux mais...
