Presented by Artland Junior Art Academy KL, Hong Kong Visual Arts Society of Youth & Children, Art Generation Studio KL, and Akademi Inspire PJ
Hot on the heels of our continuing naïve art showcase at the Annexe comes an exhibition of a different level of naivety. The 2nd Malaysian International Junior Art Exhibition 2008 will showcase more than 1,000 rainbow-spattered works of exuberant youthful artistry by children of different age groups from 45 art schools from Malaysia and overseas, executed in a variety of media. A must-see for anyone who’s ever picked up a crayon.
On Sat 24 May at 2pm, the exhibition will be officiated by YB Datuk Ong Tee Keat, the Minister of Transport.

PECHA KUCHA
Slideshow Social
Sat 24 May, 7:30pm to 10:30pm, Annexe Gallery
Presented by The British Council KL
Pecha Kucha was started in Tokyo, Japan in 2003, where designers and everyone else were invited to present a slideshow of 20 images, each shown for only 20 seconds – giving a total presentation time of 6 minutes and 40 seconds. It has since gone global as a fun social networking event for creative to talk about… well… creative things! For this edition of Pecha Kucha, presenters include Ridwan Kamil, Mun Kao, Simon Keogh, Zhin Teng, Elaine Foster, PopMalaya, and the Creative United Movement (aka C.U.M). There will be beer, DJ sets before and after, not to mention great company!

Art Exhibition

Presented by The Annexe
Exhibition opening: Thu 29 May, 8pm
Admission free
Society and authorities draw lines around us everyday. What can we do about it? We draw more lines, of course. The Annexe Gallery presents 15 artists who were asked to create works with lines, but who were also challenged to step out of line. They show us how little or how much is needed to step beyond the line that prevents us from expressing ourselves. Have imagination, will travel!
The artists: Avroco, Chang Yoong Chia, Cheeway, Daniel Chong, Jerome Kugan, K Soon, Melissa Lin, Mun Kao, Pang Khee Teik, Saharil Hasrin Sanin, Sharil Nizam, Tey Beng Tze, They, Why, Wong Eng Leong.
Special note to interested collectors: This is a plum opportunity to purchase works at a steal as all the art are priced under RM1,000. Interested art buyers are encouraged to attend a special preview on Wed 28 May.
