Alangkah Artscience™ Virtual Exhibition

The ASM ArtScience™ Prize was organised for the first time in 2020 to recognise talents and creative works from the growing community of the artist-scientists.

In conjunction with this, ASM launched an ArtScience™ Virtual Exhibition on 8 November 2021 in collaboration with Maybank Foundation and Balai Seni Visual Negara. This exhibition showcased thirteen shortlisted works of the ASM ArtScience™ Prize 2020 on a virtual platform.

ALANGKAH which is the Malay expression equivalent to inducing awe was selected as the theme to represent the exhibition. It depicts an awe-inspiring realm while observing the ArtScience™ works that had been creatively depicted as being in the digital realm of a brain.

The 2021 ArtScience™ Virtual Exhibition can be visited at http://www.maybankfoundation.com/mbfvr/alangkah/.

Viewers can immerse themselves in a world of art, science, and metaphor through a collection of digital interactive exhibition. They can explore all the thirteen artworks by exploring the labyrinth of the brain onscreen.

In conjunction with the exhibition launch, ASM organised the second episode of its ArtScience™ Webinar Series on Transcending the Arts and Sciences, entitled: “Exploring the International Landscape of ArtScience”. This webinar featured local and international speakers who discussed the multifaceted ArtScience scene across an international landscape.
