Pick A Postcard
Helmi Yusof
Art lovers, listen up. Pameran Poskad (which means 'Postcard Exhibition' in Malay and Bahasa Indonesia) is back with more terrific postcard-sized art created by artists such as Singapore's Genevieve Chua, Grace Tan and Tumadi Patri (whose batik-inspired postcards are featured here), Japan's Teppei Kaneuji, Indonesia's Heri Dono and the Philippines' Isabel and Alfredo Aquilizan.
The fair was started in 2005 by Tamae Iwasaki and Eitaro Ogawa and has since garnered a cult following among art lovers. This sixth edition features 5,000 art pieces by 500 artists from 26 countries. Prices range from S$10 to S$50, though the works by well-known artists might cost more. Typically, though, the latter are among the first to be snapped up by serious collectors.
Pameran Poskad 2018 runs from June 15 to 24 at ION Art Gallery, Level 4, ION Orchard, 10am to 10pm. Admission free
