SINGAPORE – Delfi Orchard has forcibly shut down international art gallery Tang Contemporary Art in the mall and disabled lifts to its sixth-floor space over alleged unpaid rent, The Straits Times has learnt.
The decision was enforced on Oct 8, when gallery staff arrived to find the entrance locked. A mall spokesman did not provide the reason but confirmed to ST that the 7,500 sq ft premises had been closed.
