Featuring a bumper crop of new commissions and international work, both live and online, the Singapore International Festival of Arts 2021 (SIFA 2021) will present over 60 shows and 300 performances, with artists from Switzerland, Australia, USA, Lebanon, Japan, Malaysia and Philippines performing alongside hundreds of Singaporean artists and freelancers within the 16-day festival period.
For its 10th anniversary, SAW 2022 is inviting artists, curators, producers and partners to develop physical, digital and hybrid projects that explores re-generation and transformation in the new world that we live in. As we ponder this sea-change and our relationship with the world, SAW 2022 invites all to explore the possibilities that this moment in time offers: ways forward and ways to connect, beyond time, borders, cultures and histories. How do we harness art’s potential to interrogate the present, uplift spirits, and envisage a sturdy future for ourselves? Shall we and can we, be the difference for a transformed tomorrow?
Light to Night Festival 2022 (a marquee event of Singapore Art Week) is the 6th edition of the festival. It features a host of innovative digital and on-site art experiences that are sure to excite and delight more audiences than ever before! Taking place over three weeks with an expanded line-up of programmes and artistic interventions, Light to Night 2022 will focus on the pursuit of new perspectives and states of mind. Audiences are invited to uncover new ways of seeing, thinking and being as they engage with fresh perspectives about the world we live in.
With Singapore’s own creatives steering new works, SIFA 2022 serves to highlight the very city that cradles the festival – Singapore and her inherent characteristics. Held across various physical venues, SIFA 2022 commissions will treat audiences to the experience of an unusual “excursion”, where the destination holds as much charm and creative vitality as the actual performance.
