Continuing to piece together the stories of Singapore’s art scene, National Gallery Singapore presents the works of six Singapore post-independence artists who deserve greater public recognition: Chng Seok Tin, Goh Beng Kwan, Jaafar Latiff, Lin Hsin Hsin, Mohammad Din Mohammad and Eng Tow. Titled Something New Must Turn Up: Six Singaporean Artists After 1965, this is the first time a joint exhibition of this scale for local artists has been staged at the gallery, showcasing more than 300 artworks and 100 archival materials and objects from paintings and sculptures to mixed-media installations and artefacts.
