    Writing while Walking and Other Stories is an artwork by Heman Chong. The text on the wall is written as he walked from his home on Depot Road and around Singapore aimlessly for 8 hours.

    The place is great for art fans. There's toilets every floor. Entry is free for SG. However, due to the small size of the museum, would probably only recommend for short trips.

    Marvelous exhibitions at the SAM at 8Q, an extension of the Singapore Art Museum! Located at the heart of the city, the SAM at 8Q features a lot of unique, creative and eye-catching contemporary art exhibitions about Singapore. Also, there are several interactive activities that are targeted at kids. So it's a great place for family outing! Be ready to have a fascinating visit to the SAM at 8Q!

    Great for kids and adults alike with plenty of exhibits that educate and engage. The interactive exhibits are popular. The little cinema on L2 plays short animated films that are rather well made.

    There are some nice exhibitions here at the time of my visit five days ago, ticket for 6 local dollars, relatively cheap in local standards. You can see some artistic videos which are shown as artworks, and also some very contemporary conception and representatiom of different arts. It worths to pay a visit if you like arts especially cinematic arts. But if you just want to see some fine arts, you would need to wait for opening of the other galleries. The main museum was nearly closed, probably under renovation.There was only a free exhibition there showing the museum history. I don't know why the art museum of such a developed state would be nearly closed anytime!

    This contemporary art space is rather small, and when I visited it only had 1 exhibition instead of the usual 2 or 3. They did adjust the entrance fee accounting for that fact. Normal price for students are $5, adults $10, children & Singaporeans free. The artworks I saw took lots of space, often an entire room. The works are contemporary, so expect different art forms.

    (Translated by Google) When I visit the Singapore Biennale It was used as an annex. Japanese artists were also exhibiting. Auxiliary institution of the Singapore Art Museum, Is it the impression? (Original) 自分が訪れた際にはシンガポールビエンナーレの 別館として使用されていました。 日本人作家も出展していました。 シンガポール美術館の補助機関、 という印象でしょうか。

    The main Singapore Art Museum (SAM) is currently under restoration band as such, the exhibitions are held in SAM on 8Q. When I went there, the exhibition was Cinerama. The facility is really interesting as one of the museum attendants told me that it was previously a school and was converted into one of SAM's exhibition areas. Entrance is free for Singaporeans and PR holders on all days but on Fridays, entrance is free for all if they join the guided tour.
