Alfresco Art Fair @ Clifford Square

DunbarJones — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 08:18:41 +0000

With its mission to deepen the community interest in the appreciation and enjoyment of art, fill-your-walls sets out to demystify the world of fine art with its first ever outdoor event, the Alfresco Art Fair at Clifford Square. To be held from 30 October to 1 November 2009, the fair will give the public a chance to be involved in the whole art creation process as part of a fun-filled family event of interactive activities, that promises to be engaging, entertaining, and most importantly eye opening, as to how easy it is to understand and appreciate art.

Fine art appreciation is brought to life through visually stimulating knowledge stations that showcase major art history milestones. These include art studios dressed up to reflect the different major art movements Impressionism, Cubism, Surrealism and Abstract Expressionism and artists that have made a key contribution to these periods. There will also be a focus on Nanyang Artists and their influence on the art scene closer to home. Interactive activities around forms, line, space, shapes, colours and textures will also be incorporated into the experience to deepen the visitor’s appreciation of those artistic eras.

With its focus as a weekend of fun for the family, adults and children will be immersed into the life of an artist through an activity packed programme of creative workshops and “Jamming Sessions”, which will also include art demonstrations, art lessons and the opportunity to create and take home their own original artwork. They will also get the chance to take on renowned local artist Rosihan Dahim in 10-minute painting challenges as well as witness the race against time by nine local emerging artists in a marathon relay to create a giant painting.

A highlight of Alfresco Art Fair is the Collectors’ Corner, where the public can gain insights from local and international art collectors on their experiences of starting an art collection. The public will also be able to purchase quality, original and affordable art at the event, which will have a showcase of 40 landscape paintings by local emerging artists. Books on art will also be available for visitors to browse through and buy.

Alfresco Art Fair runs from Friday 30 October till Sunday 1 November from 10 am to 7 pm at Clifford Square, between One Fullerton and Clifford Pier. Admission is free.
