Our upcoming tours are an excellent way to get inspired and unwind in the company of art nestled in the lush compounds of Mapletree Business City II (MBC II). Take a mid-day break and join us with friends or colleagues.
Themed Culture City. Culture Scape., this public art project, commissioned by Mapletree and curated by NTU CCA Singapore comprises of works by internationally renowned artists Dan Graham(United States), Zulkifle Mahmod(Singapore), Tomás Saraceno(Argentina/Germany), and Yinka Shonibare CBE (RA)(Nigeria/United Kingdom). Inspired by the idea of expanded sculptural environments, the artworks explore the interplay between landscape, architecture, and the broader social and economic environments they are placed in. More than being monumental or site-specific, each work alters or permeates its local context to invite visitors to a broader and richer engagement.

Culture City. Culture Scape.is part of the Mapletree-NTU CCA Singapore Public Art Education Programme, which includes regular guided tours, public events, educational materials, closed-door workshops, and a public art education summit.
