Thomas Yeo

Thomas Yeo, a recipient of the Cultural Medallion Award in 1984, is a second-generation Singaporean artist noted for his abstract and gouache landscapes. Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts, Chelsea School of Art (now Chelsea College of Art and Design), and Hammersmith College of Art and Building were among his educational institutions.

Since the 1960s, when he staged his first solo show, his work has influenced the development of modern art in Singapore. In his early paintings, he depicted peaceful surrealist natural surroundings with wispy images of greeneries and rustic structures. He developed a liking for dramatic abstractions of colour and texture later in his career as an artist.

Yeo made great contributions in terms of fostering art in Singapore, as well as Southeast Asian art, in addition to his own artistic activity. He is involved in a variety of committees and juries in order to secure corporate support for art in Singapore in the form of sponsorships and awards. He served as chairman of the Shell Discovery Art Awards, a juror for the Philip Morris ASEAN Art Awards, and president of the Singapore Modern Art Society.

姚照宏是个抽象以及水粉风景图被众多人认可的新加坡第二代著名画家。他在1984年获得了新加坡的文华奖。他曾在南洋艺术学院,切尔西艺术设计大学和格林威治大学修读。

姚照宏1960年代举办了他第一个个人画展,也从此对新加坡的现代艺术造成了极大的影响。他的早起作品呈现了超现实主义的风景画,里头纤细的植物和质朴的建筑成俗了大众所追求的平静感。他是过了许多年才开始使用大胆和抽象的色块与质感创作。

对于艺术在新加坡和东南亚的成长,姚照宏做出了一定的贡献。他​​曾在众多艺术委员会和协会任职,积极地以获取赞助和奖励的形式确保企业对新加坡艺术的支持。
