Lee Man Fong - Satay seller 1960s |
Galerie Belvedere will present Oct 5-10 the “Grand Masters of Art Exhibition” at the ION Art Gallery, featuring important paintings by Singapore’s first-generation artists - Lee Man Fong, Chen Wen Hsi, Cheong Soo Pieng - along with works by abstract expressionist artist Wong Keen, now based in New York, and watercolor maestro Ong King Sen.

There will also be works by Adrien Jean Le Mayeur (1880 - 1958) and Antonio Blanco (1927-1999), two European painters famed for their portrayal of a paradisiac Bali.
My favorite work is a study drawing on paper by Chen Wen Hsi of parrots.
