Treasures of Our Schools: From Cheong Soo Pieng to Lim Tze Peng

Treasures of Our Schools: From Cheong Soo Pieng to Lim Tze Peng reveals little-seen works by renowned artists from the collections of local schools. Comprising important names such as Chen Wen Hsi, Liu Kang, Chen Chong Swee, Chua Ek Kay and Ho Ho Ying, these artists are distinguished alumni and teachers of Catholic High School, Chung Cheng High School, Dunman High School, Hwa Chong Institution, and Nanyang Girls’ High School. The exhibition also includes works gifted by important overseas artists such as Liu Haisu, who had visited these schools.

Many of these works are seldom seen by the public. It is also the first time that these collections have been brought together for a joint showcase. From Cheong Soo Pieng’s oil paintings to Lim Tze Peng’s ink works, the exhibition offers a rare opportunity to appreciate the unique styles of these artists and the evolution of Singapore art from the 1950s to the present day.
