Art Stage 2011 (Fine Arts Fair in Singapore)

ArT Stage Singapore is an annual international art fair focusing on the art scene in the Asia Pacific. Its debut was at Marina Bay Sands from 12 to 16 Jan 2011.


Featuring over 120 contemporary and modern art galleries from 26 countries, as well as noted personalities such as photo artist David LaChapelle, Art Stage Singapore has featured a balance of Asia Pacific art contrasted with Western art galleries.

In addition to showcasing works by up-and-coming as well as established artists, special platforms such as Project Stage has provided for emerging Asia Pacific artists to showcase their work to an international audience.

These are some interesting work seen at the fair.

Furniture Design

Campana Brothers



















The Campana Brothers (Humberto Campana, b. 1953 and Fernando Campana, b. 1961) are noted Brazilian designers.


In 1983, the two brothers teamed up to develop furniture made by ordinary material - including waste products such as cardboard, rope, fabric and wood scraps, plastic tubes, aluminum wire. By the early 90s, they had already gained considerable international acclaim, notably in Europe and in the United States. Some of their products also began to be produced and sold in Italy.

Their breakout design of the Vermelha chair is still their best seller.
