Myanmar: Faces and Figures at Karin Weber Gallery

Karin Weber Gallery is pleased to announce ‘Myanmar: Faces and Figures’, a three-artist show focusing on some of the most influential voices in the Myanmar contemporary arts scene. As the country continues to face complex socio-political challenges arising from the military coup in February 2021, artists show remarkable resilience and commitment to their practice.

‘Faces and Figures’ spotlights three established artists who have all been instrumental in shaping the narrative of Myanmar contemporary art into what it is today. From the 1960s onwards, Aung Myint, Htein Lin and Min Wae Aung have all pioneered highly individualistic forms of self-expression through their art, building Myanmar’s artistic reputation on the international stage, and inspiring the next generation of young talents along the way. Important local art world leaders, this showcase of their work focuses on the faces and figures that are consistent features in their art, reflections of their signature styles.

Opening Reception: Thursday, 28th September 2023 at 6-9pm

Gallery address: G/F, 20 Aberdeen Street, Soho
