ArtAsiaNYC
is pleased to offer a large selection of fine contemporary paintings from
Burma (Myanmar). Connoisseurs and lovers of contemporary art will find
work that is both
rich in expression and technique. At the same time, it is important to
bear in mind that Burma has been rather isolated from most of the world
for several decades and artwork has therefore tended to focus on more
traditional subjects and religious themes. It is only during the past
several years that the country has started to open up to tourism and
foreign business that has helped to nurture an environment more conducive
to artistic expression. Many works of art produced more recently possess a
boldness, passion, and sensitivity that represent the beginning of a new
phase of development and greater experimentation. ArtAsiaNYC
is committed to supporting this greater sense of freedom in the art
community of Burma (Myanmar), as well as assisting its
art schools and organizations with their plans for the future. |
