The singapore art museum was opened in January 1996, the mission of the Singapore Art Museum (SAM) is to preserve and present the art histories and contemporory art practices of singapore and Southeast Asian region. To date, SAM has amassed the world’s largest public collection of modern and contemporary Southeast Asian artworks with a growing component in international contemporary art. The Museum’s collection comprise over 7,000 Singapore and Southeast Asian modern and contemporary artworks and over 1000 works from its Tyler Print Collection, that include some of the most prominent names in the 20th century international art scene such as Frank Stella and Roy Lichtenstein. The collection includes paintings, sculptures, multimedia installations, drawings, prints, and photographs, among others. I feel that singapore art museum had grown to a great extend of vistors view where many people are eager to look at the unique art works. They have given enough facilties to the visitors.
The Singapore Art Museum is committed to making its facilities accessible to all visitors. Wheelchair lifts and permanent ramps located in the Museum provide easy access for wheelchairs and baby push-prams users.
Public toilets are located on each floor. Diaper changing area available in the toilets.
I have learnt that Singapore had given the opportunity for our singaporeans to know more about the spore art museum by giving them the basic knowledge through the beautiful sculptures and pictures. They are able to know what is art and how are they used in different ways. From this, I can see that art museum is one of the vivid example where it had given phsycological defence and also social defence.
