Art Science Museum in Singapore, a contemporary highlight

The fascinating city-state of Singapore offers many delights for the visitor, attracting tourists from around the world. Well-informed visitors seeking luxury accommodation Singapore will be pleased by the Somerset Bencoolen Singapore, a quality accommodation provider which features tastefully furnished rooms and a selection of contemporary amenities.

The unmistakable architecture of the ArtScience Museum’s building has become a Singapore landmark and is considered to be representative of the city’s trend towards unusual state-of-the-art architectural designs. The spectacular design of this amazing construction is considered to represent the shapes and contours of a lotus flower. This contemporary marvel is part of the well-known Marina Bay Sands complex, a cutting edge building development which has become renowned for its contemporary design motifs.

The ArtScience Museum focuses on well-reputed, internationally renowned artists like Warhol and Dali, rather than displaying the work of lesser-known local artists. Instead of being committed to a narrow focus on Asian or Singaporean artworks, this museum exhibits the world’s finest internationally acclaimed works of modern art. The museum also aims to explore the creative nexus between the spheres of science and art.

You will find a noteworthy permanent collection within this groundbreaking establishment which consists of three principal sections; Inspiration, Curiosity and Expression. These permanent exhibitions document humanity’s major scientific and artistic achievements through the course of centuries.

Interestingly the scope of the ArtScience Museum is not confined to artworks; it has regularly featured such engrossing exhibits as historically significant artefacts from the kingdom of Gengis Khan and Tang era China. The museum has also staged unusual exhibits like costumes and sets from well known movies such as ‘Titanic’ and the ‘Harry Potter’ series.

Singapore is always a delightful place to visit, offering the tourist sightseeing attractions, a number of galleries and museums, extraordinary shopping opportunities and a host of leisure and recreational options. Any visitor irrespective of age or preferences will find many attractions that will captivate and enthral.
