Everyone’s A Critic - Keringat: Tales of our Forefathers

Keringat: Tales of Our Forefathers brings an artistic lens to Malaysia’s socioeconomic development, by showcasing over 50 artworks from colonial Malaya up to the 1980s. The paintings and photographs feature the sectors of agriculture, fisheries, mining, and small businesses, and offer an interesting, often intimate, way of connecting to the country’s past and its journey to the present.

Everyone's A Critic is jointly presented with CENDANA. For updates on Malaysian arts and culture, visit BASKL.
