Museum #1: SAM

There are altogether more than 50 museums in Singapore and I have visited only two thus far. The first museum that I visited was Images of Singapore in Sentosa Island with mom back in May this year. Now, one more museum will be crossed out from the list and it's the Singapore Art Museum located in City Hall. We were happily looking forward to pay the $8 guided-tour entrance fee but was more delighted to find that it was free for that day as there was maintenance work in one or two showrooms.

Check out this brochure I found at the ticketing counter in SAM. It lists the 52 public artworks in Singapore. I have a new goal now, which is to capture all the 52 artworks scattered around Singapore! Hehe.. I hope there is no complain from the person who must accompany me to do this :D

Into the museum.. we found pieces that we didn't understand at one glance, paintings that we won't ever understand no matter how long we stood there, sculptures that we didn't know whether to look from front, back, left, right or top and photographs that had a sense of humor in them and ones we could easily understand at one glance. Haha.. it's not a tease, but all the artworks were seriously amazing and some were very creative pieces.
