SHM had a delightful outing at the newly opened ArtScience Museum at Marina Bay Sand on 30-July-2011. 9 people showed up for this event, with the sole reason was to visit the Van Gogh Alive Exhibition, the bonus being the Salvador Dalí which was recently launched at the museum, as well as the Shipwrecked Tang Dynasty Treasure exhibition.
The outing started around 10:30am when most of the turnout have collected their tickets, and started to make their way into the museum. First stop, Shipwrecked exhibit. As we were the first few that entered the exhibit on that day, we got a chance to get a guided tour from Joanna Chen, a staff of the museum. She walked us through and explained the treasures found from the wreck. Next we headed for the guided tour of the Van Gogh Exhibition conducted by Alice at 11:30am. Alice also explained to us the origin and reason behind the ArtScience Museum architecture. After that there was a short break for lunch, and the team broke off to explore the museum on their own. After lunch, some of them gathered again to explore the Dalí: Enter the Mind of a Genius exhibition. Some stayed behind to watched a documentary of the Dalí titled "The Dalí Dimention - A Genius' Lifelong Obsession with Science. The outing ended at 5pm, with a slow walk to Marina South MRT while absorbing the National Day festive celebration along the Marina Bay area.
Before ending this entry with some words from Van Gogh, the organizer would like to thank the following people for coming to experience great art and science together: Susan, Eric and wife, Fong Lai, Steven and friend, and SW.
For Midnight blog reader, here are some additional blog entry on some of the exhibitions :)
