\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Join on us on the 2nd of October to celebrate the launch of the publication WORKING<\/strong>, an artists initiated project in association with RogueArt. Spearheaded by\u00a0Ahmad Zakii Anwar and Jalaini Abu Hassan, WORKING<\/strong> is the principal outcome of the WORK project which began in 2009. Some of you may recall attending the WORK exhibition held earlier in January 2010 at No. 19 Jalan Berangan? (For those who would like to find out more about the exhibition, click here if you are curious)<\/a><\/p>\n

WORKING<\/strong> focuses on the creative processes of 10 leading Malaysian artists and their relationship with their respective working environments through a series of interviews and photographic documentation. The publication is a modest attempt to uncover each artist\u2019s methodology, to try to make sense of what is often considered a wordless and emotional creative process.<\/p>\n

An exhibition entitled 10 Malaysian Artists: Portraits from the WORK Project by Tara Sosrowardoyo<\/em> will also be presented in conjunction with the book launch. Tara was invited to be the \u201ceyes\u201d of the project, to capture each artist’s portraits which will form the key entries of WORKING<\/strong>. Over a period of two months in 2009, this regionally acclaimed photographer travelled around the Klang Valley, up north to Kuala Kangsar, down south to Melaka and Johor Bahru, spending time with the artists and familiarising himself with their environments.<\/p>\n

The exhibition is the result of this two-month shoot. A number of images from this exhibition can be found in WORKING<\/strong> while others are the photographer\u2019s own selection of unpublished images from his sessions with the artists.<\/p>\n

The artists for the WORK project are: Ahmad Fuad Osman, Ahmad Shukri Mohamed, Ahmad Zakii Anwar, Chong Siew Ying, Hamir Soib, Jalaini Abu Hassan, Kow Leong Kiang, Raja Shahriman Raja Aziddin, Ramlan Abdullah and Yee I-Lann.<\/p>\n
