ArtScience Museum is the cultural heart of Marina Bay Sands in Singapore and explores the intersection between art, science, technology and culture. Since its opening in February 2011, ArtScience Museum has staged large-scale exhibitions by some of the world’s most famous artists, including Leonardo da Vinci, M.C.
