The former American president Lyndon B. Johnson once said: “Art is a nation’s most precious heritage. For it is in our works of art that we reveal to ourselves and to others the inner vision which guides us as a nation. And where there is no vision, the people perish.”
The truth of Johnson’s words can be witnessed first-hand at Negaraku, an exhibition of some of Malaysia’s most significant artists and artworks. The show is currently on at the National Visual Arts Gallery (NVAG) in Kuala Lumpur till September.
