National Gallery Singapore

The Gallery Children's Biennale returns to National Gallery Singapore from May 31, 2025 to March 29, 2026 for its fifth edition, themed Tomorrow We'll Be.... Coinciding with the Gallery’s 10th anniversary and Singapore’s 60th birthday, this year’s event invites visitors to explore the possibilities of their future through the values of joy, kindness, dream and love. Families can look forward to eight immersive and multi-sensory installations by local and international artists, alongside a series of engaging programmes designed to inspire creativity and reflection.

What if we told you that you could marvel at the paintings of iconic artists like Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir and Édouard Manet without even setting foot in France? The National Gallery Singapore’s latest blockbuster exhibition, Into the Modern: Impressionism from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, marks the largest showcase of French Impressionism ever seen in Southeast Asia. Featuring over 100 artworks by 25 pioneering artists, the exhibition spans three galleries and unfolds across seven thematic sections, each offering a perspective into the movement’s evolution from its early beginnings to the present day. Immerse yourself in the luminous brushstrokes and vivid scenes of late 19th-century Paris as you move through the gallery surrounded by Monet’s dreamy landscape paintings and Renoir’s portraits. Continue your journey by discovering how Impressionism influenced Southeast Asian artists at interactive learning stations that showcase the movement’s lasting legacy. You’ll uncover the way regional artists such as Georgette Chen and Lim Yew Kuan had adapted and made the techniques into their own. The exhibition also extends beyond the gallery walls. Indulge in Pierre Hermé Paris’ signature macarons at the Gallery’s exclusive pop-up or unwind with a high tea session at Fairmont Singapore’s ANTI:DOTE, where you’ll be served with a menu filled with sweets and savoury treats inspired by the Impressionist artworks featured.
