Description
Summary:Yeoh Jim Leng - painter, potter, teacher, organiser, administrator, writer and thinker - has been a seminal and pivotal figure in the history of Malaysian art for more than three decades. This most private of men is yet a most engaged and committed man; this pioneer abstract expressionist is also a man of inner calm and tranquility; this learned scholar and educator is nevertheless a reticent, even sometimes a reluctant, communicator; this modest man of simple wants is at the same time an intellectual sophisticate with a keen and many-layered sense of history and society.
