Philosophy

Pop and Contemporary Fine Art's goal is to show contemporary work that would otherwise not be seen in Singapore. "The gallery's guiding principle is to treat people, in the same way that we ourselves would like to be treated.[6] Art is about learning and discovering your likes and dislikes, it is extremely personal and intimate and should be in no way be a scary journey. The gallery's aim is also to allow art from blue chip artists to become more accessible to the Singapore and South East Asian region", asserts the gallery's managing director, Saskia Joosse.[7][8]
