Affordable Art Fair Singapore (AAFS) returns this weekend at the F1 Pit Building with 70 local and international galleries selling artworks priced between S$100 and S$15,000.

Yes, we know, the quality of art varies from the strong and promising to the downright tacky. And it takes a sharp-eyed collector to pick out the gems from the gravel.

But young artists such as Sarah Choo and Jolene Lai got their start at AAFS and have since attracted the attention of worldwide collectors. Lai's painting A Moonlight Meadow (pictured) was auctioned off by Christie's last year. This year's fair has a new #Spotlight Showcase featuring 13 new artists who have never before shown at the Singapore fair.
