Malaysian contemporary art: CAG goes to school!


the picture above is the gang and the students of a local university in Kota Kinabalu ,Sabah, North Borneo. Along with their Lecturer Miss Maznah.

Me and the Cracko art group are now going in to institutions, namely universities, to give talks and sharing on contemporary art.

We guessed its important because in this part of the country, contemporary art is something very foreign and strange matter to people like the ones we met in PTPL College Kota Kinabalu. The idea of conceptual art is very new to them, I wont say this is a bad thing, but rather this is a good place to start experiencing contemporary art, so to speak.

end of the day, both parties, the students and the speakers which is me and the crackos, learn a lot from each other. good and bad infos all round.

Now we sendings more proposals to other institutions in the city to see where we do this kinda exercise again, because its so much fun, plus we get to play with their heads for a bit.

still a long way to go.... Hidup Seni Sabah!!
