A growing appreciation for Art amongst Millennials

Singapore's most powerful consumers, the youth,  are informed and driven for financial success more than any other generation. Through everything ranging from Gourmet Coffee to beach holidays, millennials like to call it affordable luxury. 

Affordable art, as it turns out, tends to be synonymous with their tastes, personalities, and beliefs. So much so that they consider this spending as an investment and not an expenditure.

In a city like Singapore where many different cultures thrive and speak differently to the buyer, looking for the right piece for your home or office can get difficult. Well-connected to the rest of the world, Singapore also enjoys the privilege of hosting many able artists from different countries.

While some people prefer to meet artists during live events/exhibitions before making a purchase, some others simply walk into the gallery and catch the perfect piece or order online.

Art is an experience of the senses. It is enhanced when you have options and when you have someone to guide you through the process.  Art galleries today don’t just exhibit. For us at Living with Art, we provide an environment to look at, choose from, customize and even meet some of these extremely talented artists.

From contemporary art to traditional designs, millennials want the look and feel to be in sync with their home and office environment. With the rising number of expats in Singapore, there has been a noticeable increase in the desire to own art that reflects  Singapore's tradition and tourism. As the leading art gallery in the city, we receive numerous requests for paintings that show Marina Bay Sands and sculptures that can be kept as memoirs of the Lion city. 

Considering art is a field that always needs patrons, the young generation seems to fit perfectly in this journey.

Our space at Tan Boon Liat holds thousands of Artworks for you to choose from. Visit us in the gallery or find some great pieces at www.livingwithart.com.sg
