The stunning breadth of one of the most extensive private collections of ink art in Singapore is made public in Rediscovering Treasures: Ink Art from the Xiu Hai Lou Collection. Full-colour image plates showcase works which range from the ancient aesthetics of Ming and Qing painting and calligraphy through to the prized masterpieces of 20th-century ink masters, while newly commissioned essays analyse the unique place of the Collection in local art history. Rounding out the catalogue is an exclusive interview with the current custodians of the Collection who reflect on the trajectory of its storied history.
