Four years is a long time away, but Galeri PETRONAS in Kuala Lumpur – which reopened today (June 10) – is set on making up for lost time with an exhibition spotlighting 15 fresh talents in the Malaysian art scene.

In May 2021, Galeri PETRONAS paused its programmes amid a pandemic-era realignment, though the space remained active with cultural and corporate showcases.
