At the UBS Art Studio on Level 1 of the fair, the UBS Art Collection will present Melati Suryodarmo’s I Love You (2007), an intense five-hour performance captured on single-channel video. Suryodarmo moves through a stark red room, carrying a large glass while repeating “I love you”. The red evokes love, desire, urgency and danger, while the fragile yet heavy glass symbolizes emotional vulnerability and burden. Through repetition and physical strain, the work transforms a simple declaration into a ritual of longing, resilience and endurance.
The presentation of Suryodarmo’s work at ART SG is an affirmation of UBS’s long-standing commitment to supporting cultural initiatives worldwide and belief in the power of contemporary art to inspire dialogue, deepen understanding and enrich lives. At the heart of this dedication is the UBS Art Collection, one of the world’s most significant corporate collections of contemporary art, with over 40,000 artworks by influential artists of our time.

Ruinart returns to ART SG, showcasing the “Conversations with Nature” art series. For nearly three centuries, the oldest house of Champagne has embraced nature’s wisdom in winemaking, now extending its vision to a broader discourse through contemporary art. This year, Ruinart presents the visionary work of multi-disciplinary artist, Sam Falls. Falls’ creations, made from organic materials, depict botanical portraits of the places in which he immerses himself, and express a symbiotic relationship with the flora and fauna that inspire him. Alongside Maison Ruinart, his art invites us to engage in a dialogue aimed at restoring harmony with the natural world.
Maison Ruinart, the first House of Champagne, was founded in 1729 during the Age of Enlightenment – a time of ideas, connection and culture. The Maison’s winemakers are true masters of Chardonnay. Acting in harmony with nature, they cultivate and define the signature House style: elegantly simple, pleasant to drink cuvées of aromatic freshness, reflecting the grapes’ balanced luminosity. Related to this winemaking and inspired by the power of art to transform, connect and enlighten, Ruinart curates elevated cultural experiences. Through the lens of art and creation, the Maison fosters a deeper understanding of our links with one another and with nature, thus cultivating the joys of living in a more harmonious world.

The Glendronach, one of the world’s most exceptional, richly-sherried Single Malts, is proud to be returning as the Official Whisky Partner of ART SG 2026.
For almost 200 years, The Glendronach distillery has stood proudly in the Scottish Highlands, nestled and protected by its namesake – the ‘Valley of Brambles’. James Allardice, our founder introduced this whisky to the world in 1826, and since then generations of artisans have remained dedicated to time-honoured methods, relying on intuition and their senses to raise expectations of what’s possible in whisky.
Our robust Highland spirit is slowly matured in the finest Pedro Ximenez and Oloroso sherry casks sourced from Andalucia, Spain. This brings together a unique duality of robust Highland spirit and Spanish flair which rewards the palate with richness, flamboyance, and flair – a true revelation in flavour.
You may sample some exceptional sherry cask whisky at The Glendronach’s booth and cheers to the enduring legacy of The Glendronach – a whisky that truly raises expectations!
