places (and exhibitions) I'd like to visit some time soon:
[
indicates my interest level]
1) <5> "Weapons of Mass Desire" [National Museum of Singapore]
An exhibition that looks at the post WW2 design and consumption, examining how ideas and technologies concieved for death and destruction have been adapted for everday use.
2) <4> "Seeing Red: propaganda and material culture in China [1966-1976]" [Asian Civilisations Museum]
Is that date the end of the cultural revolution? I'm not sure. But the title says it all.
3) <3> "Heartlands:Home and nation in the art of Ong Kim Seng"
Another exhibition that doesn't leave much in the dark.
4) <2> "Is it tomorrow yet?"
Showcases the works drawn from key modernist art movements in Europe to contemporary art developments of today. Andy Warhol is one of a few whose artworks are on exhibition.
5) <5> Marina Barrage, its architecture and exhibition inside, an interactive display with scale models on how the barrage functions.
6) <3> Fort Canning park and its surroundings
7) <4> HSBC TreeTop Walk at MacRitchie
