ArtScience Museum in Singapore is set to dazzle audiences with the Asian premiere of ‘Goddess: Brave. Bold. Beautiful.’ This captivating exhibition, which opened on 6 April, invites visitors to embark on a visual journey through 120 years of moving image history, showcasing glamorous screen legends who have graced the silver screen from classic Hollywood to modern-day Asia. It will highlight the compelling, significant, and lesser-known tales of women in film through eight zones.
Visitors are invited to rediscover the complex characters, collective strength, and boundless creativity of pioneering and contemporary stars who have redefined our vision of what a Goddess is through behind-the-scenes photos, archival material, projections, and stunning original costumes worn by the likes of Marilyn Monroe, Zendaya, Michelle Yeoh, and Zhang Ziyi.
