Immerse Yourself in the Gallery Light to Night Festival

To celebrate the National Gallery’s first anniversary, the Gallery Light to Night Festival has lined up a myriad of interactive installations and engaging programmes for everyone. Ranging from film screenings to music performances, join in the festivities that run from dawn to dusk over the next two weekends, 25 to 27 November and 2 to 4 December

 

Here are some of the interesting things to look out for at the festival itself:

Art and Design

Facade Show

Spinifex Group’s spectacular projection show transforms the Gallery’s stately facade, bringing us into a mesmerising world of art and machines. Objects such as picture frames, paint tube machines and art desks create magical scenes inspired by abstract artworks in the Gallery’s collection.

 

Pagoda Robot

Don’t miss the chance to take a photo with this monumental 5-metre high robot. Inspired by Latiff Mohidin’s Pagodas II and made out of recycled cardboard, it was designed by Noa Haim of Collective Paper Aesthetics (The Netherlands) and produced by Paper Carpenter (Singapore).
