National Gallery Singapore 新加坡国家美术馆 2021 前高等法院、前政府大厦
新加坡国家美术馆堪称新加坡艺坛桂冠上一颗新添的瑰宝；而这座视觉艺术殿堂所珍藏的新加坡及东南亚现代艺术画作规模之庞大，可谓举世无双。
美术馆位处市政区的中心，由新加坡历史上曾经扮演着举足轻重角色的两座标志性建筑物 - 政府大厦和前高等法院改建而成。即使这两座历史古迹如今已赋予时代新使命，成为向公众开放的现代化美术殿堂；新加坡有关部门仍采取严密的保护措施，确保这两座国家古迹获得细心妥善的维护。
而这座国家美术馆当前的使命是：致力于收藏新加坡及东南亚的画作，展现这个区域在艺术、文化遗产、历史方面的独特视野；值得海内外游客了解与体会。国家美术馆占地 6 万 4000 平方米，是新加坡最大的视觉艺术殿堂，也是东南亚地区规模最大的视觉艺术场馆之一。
国家美术馆展出 8000 余件国家藏品，藏品之丰富完整，堪称 19 世纪至今全球规模最大，也最具历史价值的新加坡及东南亚现代美术珍藏。国家美术馆展品当中，就有多位让新加坡引以为傲的本地艺术家巨作，包括陈荔英 (Georgette Chen)、陈宗瑞、刘抗等。
同时展出的还有来自东南亚和世界其他地区的顶级艺术家的精美代表作品。来自东南亚的著名作品包括拉登·沙勒 (Raden Saleh)（印度尼西亚）、拉迪夫·莫西丁 (Latiff Mohidin)（马来西亚）和阮嘉智 (Nguyen Gia Tri)（越南）等艺术家的作品；国际知名作品包括出自草间弥生 (Yayoi Kusama) 和马克·罗斯科 (Mark Rothko) 等艺术家之手。
除了欣赏画作，访客也可在这里参加各种启发性的体验项目，包括导览活动、艺术家座谈会、策展人探讨会和各种讲座，以更深入认识展览。
新加坡国家美术馆还设有新加坡首个艺术教育中心--吉宝美术教育中心 (Keppel Centre for Art Education)。家庭和学生还可参加一系列精心策划且气氛活跃的学习项目和活动，沉浸在创意十足的学习环境中。
The latest jewel in Singapore's art crown, the National Gallery Singapore is a visual arts institution housing an unparalleled collection of modern Singapore and Southeast Asian art.
Where history meets modernity
Fittingly located in the heart of the Civic District, the Gallery is housed in the City Hall and the former Supreme Court-two iconic buildings that have played a monumental role in Singapore's history. Utmost care was taken to ensure that preservation guidelines for these two national monuments were being upheld even as they were being remodelled into a state-of-the-art museum for the public.
Dedicated to curating a collection that will provide insights into the unique art, heritage and history in the region, the Gallery is a must-visit destination in Singapore. At 64,000 square metres, it is the largest visual arts venue in Singapore and one of the largest in the region.
The Gallery showcases more than 8,000 pieces from Singapore’s National Collection, making it one of the world’s largest and most invaluable public collections of Singapore and Southeast Asian modern art from the 19th century to the present day. The establishment proudly displays the works of some of Singapore’s most prominent local artists, including Georgette Chen, Chen Chong Swee and Liu Kang.
The collection also showcases significant artworks by top artists from both Southeast Asia and the rest of the globe. Notable art from the region include the works of Raden Saleh (Indonesia), Latiff Mohidin (Malaysia) and Nguyen Gia Tri (Vietnam), while international names whose works have graced this space include Yayoi Kusama and Mark Rothko.
Visitors can expect a variety of enlightening programmes including guided tours, artist talks, conversations with curators and lecture series to gain deeper insights into the exhibitions.
The National Gallery Singapore also houses Keppel Centre for Art Education- Singapore’s very first art education centre. Families and students alike will get to immerse themselves in a creative learning environment with a range of artful and active learning programmes and activities.
