Singapore Art Museum

Bras Basah, Singapore · built 1996

The Singapore Art Museum (Abbreviation: SAM) is an art museum with multiple venues across Singapore. It is the first fully dedicated contemporary visual arts museum in Singapore with public collections by local and Southeast artists. It collaborates with international art museums to co-curate contemporary art exhibitions. SAM presents art at its five galleries at Tanjong Pagar Distripark and other partner venues across Singapore. From its opening in 1996 to 2019, SAM was based at two heritage buildings: the former Saint Joseph’s Institution on Bras Basah Road and the former Catholic High School on Queen Street. The museum organises the Singapore Biennale, starting from 2011, and the Singapore Pavilion at the Venice Biennale from 2024.
