Gallery Visits - Petronas Gallery
The Al-Kesah exhibition pays a tribute to an artist ahead of his time with the ability to transcribe a single thought into rousing collection of visual statements. Ismail Zain (1930-1991) sought to make a statement through his own work - forgoing modes of expressionism in favour of a more objective way of framing the world.
