In a country celebrated for its architectural ambition and culinary finesse, Singapore is now stepping into something far more poetic: brushstrokes. This fall through winter, the National Gallery Singapore invites visitors to step into the luminous world of French Impressionism with “Into the Modern: Impressionism from the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.”
Running from November 14, 2025 to March 1, 2026, the exhibition marks a historic moment for Southeast Asia, presenting over 100 masterpieces from the golden age of French art, many of which have never been displayed in the region before.

Emerging in 19th-century France, Impressionism was a radical departure from the rigid formalism of academic painting. Artists like Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Edgar Degas, and Camille Pissarro sought to capture the fleeting effects of light, atmosphere, and movement.
Painting en plein air (outdoors), they embraced visible brushstrokes, vibrant color palettes, and everyday subjects, transforming the ordinary into the extraordinary. Their work, once dismissed as unfinished or rebellious, would go on to redefine the trajectory of modern art.
This showcase brings together the movement’s most iconic names. Visitors will encounter Monet’s atmospheric landscapes, 17 in total, that chart his journey from realism to abstraction. Renoir’s Dance at Bougival offers a tender portrayal of intimacy and motion, while Degas’ ballet scenes capture ephemeral gestures with unmatched precision. Pissarro’s rural and urban vignettes provide a democratic view of everyday life, grounding the exhibition in the rhythms of the modern world.

Organized into seven thematic sections, the exhibition will explore the rise of modernity through the lens of light, movement, and urban transformation. As a fully immersive experience, the National Gallery Singapore has curated a dynamic program that includes curator-led tours, interactive workshops, and multimedia installations that bridge 19th-century Paris with contemporary Asian perspectives.
It’s a celebration of innovation, elegance, and the enduring power of the painted image, right where tradition meets the future.
