As part of Singapore Art Week 2026, Tanoto Art Foundation presents Rituals of Perception, the foundation’s inaugural exhibition. Staged at Singapore’s New Bahru School Hall, the exhibition brings together recent work and new commissions by over twenty leading contemporary artists. Opening 21 January 2026, this marks TAF’s return to Singapore Art Week following the foundation’s launch event in 2025.
“Following our successful launch symposium and the Conversation Series in Singapore, Hong Kong, and São Paulo, TAF looks forward to this new chapter,” says Xiaoyu Weng, TAF Artistic Director and curator of the exhibition. “With our first exhibition, this convening of these diverse art practices builds upon TAF’s mission to create meaningful connections and foster enriching dialogue between Southeast Asia, South America, and other global hubs of contemporary art.
Continuing TAF’s ongoing mission to engender public engagement and education in contemporary art, the foundation will host free weekly public programs in conjunction with the exhibition, including performances by artist Sriwhana Spong, panel discussions, and docent-led tours.
