Artists from three nations preparing for joint exhibit in Bali

Artists from Iran, Malaysia, and Indonesia are going to come together to Bali, Indonesia on April next year for a joint exhibition sponsored by the Malaysian-Iranian Art Society (MIAS). It is an organization built by two nations which have been known to have a rich culture since the beginning of time. It is aimed to promote the artists of these two nations through an exchange of art, performing arts, culture, music, dance, drama, poetry, sculpture, photography, and others.

There will be about 30 artists from the three countries who will be showcasing their artwork in the areas of painting, sculpture, calligraphic painting, illumination and photography. The theme for this year’s exhibition is culture and modernism.

Though no date has been announced yet, MIAS said in its website that the selected artworks will be displayed in a Kuala Lumpur gallery.


More about MIAS

MIAS is a budding organization which was established only in 2011 by some 50 Iranian and Malaysian artists who believe in the promotion of the arts. It was in June 25 last year when the organization began its activities particularly a joint exhibition of paintings entitled, Art Connexion.

It is using its influence to connect the audience from both Iran and Malaysia for the appreciation of the arts.

Though it is still in its infant stage, MIAS foresees itself to be publishing art books as well as art educational materials.

Right now, it is working together with ArtMalaysia for the organization of its art exhibits.

Given this upcoming activity, it is expected that the accommodation in Bali, primarily its Bali villa rentals and villas in Bali, will be filled again. So those who are interested to join or become an audience for the exhibited are encouraged to book their chosen villas in Bali to avoid the rush.
