'What is the meaning and impact of art in Malaysian society? What is the work of curators, and what agendas and hopes fuel their practices? How has Malaysian art history been written and how can it be expanded? This fourth and final volume of the Narratives in Malaysian Art series considers how we look at Malaysian art, and the forces and motivations that have shaped our understanding of its role and development. Perspectives brings together the voices of members of the public, activists, art workers, critics, curators, academics and artists in a collection of commissioned interviews, conversations, essays and short reflections. It seeks to stimulate alternative ways of thinking about art and its significance in the past, present and future.' - from the back cover
