Elephants Parade announces Asian artists for its Singapore foray

Following on my previous post, the herd of the Elephant Parade will roll down Orchard Road and around Marina Bay on Nov 11.


Organizers have just announced the list of the 120 or so artists, designers and celebrities that will be designing their own elephants, which will eventually then be auctioned at Sotheby's. It's a very mix bag, but top of my list amongst the Asian artists will be elephants designed by Filipino artist Ronald Ventura (can't wait!) and Korean sculptor Osang Gwon, along with works by Indian Farhad Hussain, Indonesian artist Ay Tjoe Chritine and Putu Sutawijaya, Filipino artist Bencab and Malaysian painter Ahmad Zakii Anwar.
