Portraits are, many would tell you, a window to a person’s soul. For centuries artists have been fascinated with the human face and many, from centuries gone by until this day, have commissioned artists to paint a portrait of themselves.

The public has always been fascinated by how we are portrayed by people – be it a young child, friend, stranger or an artist.
The Wei-Ling Gallery will be exhibiting the works of a selected group of Malaysian artists who draw inspiration from the enchantment of the human face/head. Each artist has a unique approach to the subject and delivers an individualistic point of view, both technically and intellectually.

The artists participating in this exhibition, titled Heads Up, are Chong Choon Woon, Ng Bee, Kim Ng, Marvin Chan, Mohd Al-Khuzairie Ali and Chee Eng Hong.

The exhibition will be held from 29 March until 28 April 2010 at the Wei-Ling Gallery on Mondays to Fridays between Noon to 7pm and on Saturdays from 10am to 5pm.
