Travel Programmes: Art Centres of Asia

Each year, Sotheby's Institute of Art - Singapore organises a number of overseas trips to major art centres, exhibitions, museums and collections in Asia. These visits are held in conjunction with the Master's degree programmes in Art Business and Contemporary Art, and participants are taught alongside our full-time international students.

Led by leading art experts from the region, each trip exposes the participants to the experience of art and objects in their historical context as well as provides an insight to the development of art in the region. Scheduled to coincide with key events and festivals, participants get to visit the major art centres in Asia, attend special talks by gallery directors, dealers and leading art professionals—an unique opportunity to come face-to-face with some of the key figures operating in Asia today.
