A Solo WaterColour Exhibition by Tew Nai Tong(1936-2013) held fron 14 June 2014 to 28 June 2014

Tribute - A Solo Watercolour Exhibition by Tew Nai Tong (1936-2013)

Tew, Nai Tong: Tribute (16 June 2014 – 28 June 2014)

PINKGUY Gallery is holding a posthumous exhibition of works by Tew Nai Tong, who passed away on the 5th of May 2013. This show held in tribute to the late artist will feature a total of 40 watercolour paintings that range in size from small to large; while also showing a complete range of works that span his whole lifetime. Viewers will be treated to some of his earliest paintings in watercolour, even 2 of his Chinese ink paintings on rice paper, all the way up to his quite recent creations and there is one special painting to be shown - an unfinished oil painting of Nai Tong’s that is unsigned, as he passed before its completion. All these paintings are from his widow’s collection, a true tribute to Malaysia’s last great Nan yang style artist who won many awards for his watercolour works in his lifetime, an exhibition that demonstrates his distinctive style, skill and passion for the arts.

Tribute is partly WinSon Loh’s fulfillment of a promise made to Tew Nai Tong in 2013. WinSon had told Nai Tong that if Glories received a good response, PINKGUY would hold a second exhibition for him and Tribute is the first exhibition of Nai Tong’s work after his demise. It is notable that before and even after Nai Tong’s passing, his works have been featured often in Malaysian auctions. This exhibition is a first for PINKGUY where paintings will not have a custom frame made, and every painting will be shown in their old frames. This is intentional to highlight the age of some of Nai Tong’s earliest works. It is also because due to PINKGUY’s popularity and the consequent long waiting list for customers, there is no time for them to create customized framing for these works. Some of Nai Tong’s sketches will have a PINKGUY frame however, to make them easier to hang for display. Nevertheless, PINKGUY is confident that any collectors of these old pieces will have it preserved.

During Nai Tong’s early years, he became a part of the watercolour movement in Malaysia, promoting this art style and focusing on landscape. Being part of this movement, as well all his other lifetime achievements have cemented him as one of the most important artists from the South East Asian region. The works in Tribute show Nai Tong’s strong connection with the Malayan landscape and his early works hint at his future works that extoll the virtues of a serene and simple way of living. They are calm and composed, radiating a distinct beauty and tranquility that to Nai Tong, is part and parcel of the old Malaya and its way of life. There is a feeling of freedom in all his pieces through distinctive play with composition, and trademark strokes. In some, a picture is made from minimal yet expressive strokes, while in others one could is struck be the detail and accuracy of Nai Tong’s depiction.

Some of the works in the exhibit are his sketches that led to some of his masterpieces and is one aspect of the show that really allows one to experience Nai Tong’s process and appreciate his artistry as even these simple sketches display his unique abilities to depict figure and the themes that were close to his heart. Whether it is an ambient landscape, full of tonal gradations, or a vase of flowers, or even Chinese Ink paintings, viewers can see how multi-talented Nai Tong was, as well as his mastery in creating imagery out of everyday scenes that speak with meaning and emotion. It exhibits his capability of taking what may be considered ordinary, and transforming them into significant objects for observation. Tribute will display Nai Tong’s character, his interests and mode of working, as well as reinforcing the notable abilities of the late artist.

How A Weakling, Indecisive and not Fighter become a Leader???

Ha ha ha ....... Is Pornostar indirectly insulting the members who elected Liow? Ha ha ha .....

 

=============================

The Star front page 'too much', fumes Liow

Nigel Aw 2:05PM Oct 12, 2013

'He is weak', 'He is indecisive' and 'He is not a fighter' screamed The Star's front page today, all this in neat speech bubbles in reference to MCA deputy president Liow Tiong Lai.

The MCA-owned English daily's unflattering but creatively presented headline quoting party president Chua Soi Lek has left Liow fuming.

"It's too much, it's really too much. This is really abusing the newspaper.

"He (Chua) is using the newspaper's front page to whack me because of a personal grudge. The Star should be more professional," Liow told Malaysiakini when contacted.
However, Liow said he sympathised with the situation that The Star had to face under Chua.
"I sympathise with the professional and ethical employees of the paper. Having to be made use for a personal agenda is despicable. I feel very sorry," he said.

Liow, who saw the headline via a MMS from Malaysiakini, sounded furious at the report and lamented that Chua was using party machinery to get at him ahead of next week's extraordinary general meeting (EGM).
Responding to his alleged "weaknesses" so prominently highlighted h by The Star, Liow said ultimately his own track record speaks louder than Chua's words.

‘Track record speaks louder’

"When I was a cabinet minister, I delivered results and I carried out whatever party decisions, on top of helping to resolve a lot of community issues.

"So, my results speak louder than empty talk or personal attacks," he said.

In the front page report, Chua listed the three reasons why Liow should step down together with him and not vie for the MCA presidency at the December party polls.
The EGM on Oct 20, initiated by Chua's faction, will among others seek to censure Liow for going against the party's central committee decision on Pulai Sebatang assemblyperson Tee Siew Keong.

Liow had attempted to block the party membership reinstatement of the rep, seen as an ally of Chua.

Tee was initially suspended for accepting a post in the Johor government in violation of a party resolution to refuse government positions, following MCA’s abysmal performance at the last general election.

However, Chua succeeded in outmanoeuvring Liow by obtaining majority support in the central committee to reinstate Tee.

This prompted Liow to seek an EGM to decide on Tee's case but Chua blocked the move.

Chua's allies then countered by calling for the upcoming EGM that will push Liow onto the hot seat.

A Weakling And An Immoral?

Ha ha ha ........... An immoral making judgement in another person?  Ha ha ha ........

Looks like in MCA, the members cannot "make" their own decision???

Ha ha ha ha .......

“Weak” Liow not fit to lead MCA, must quit with me, says party president

Chua will not step down from MCA if Liow takes over. The Malaysian Insider pic, October 11, 2013.























Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek is willing to step down as MCA president but on the condition that his deputy Datuk Seri Liow Tiong Lai does the same.
Chua said Liow is not fit to lead the party as the latter is "weak", and feels that new faces at the helm will rejuvenate the party.
"I'm willing to go but Liow has to go as well. He is not the right person to lead MCA in this challenging environment.
"He is weak and indecisive," he told reporters at the party's headquarters in Kuala Lumpur today.
Both Chua and Liow have been embroiled in a war of words for months after Liow had called his boss a "spin doctor", "tainted politician" and "dictator".
Liow is facing a move to censure him at next Sunday’s extraordinary general meeting (EGM) where, he claimed, Chua would be out to get him.
The EGM also seeks to overturn the party's previous stand of not taking up government posts since it performed badly in the 13th general election.
At the May 5 national polls, the MCA only managed to win seven out of 37 federal seats and 11 out of 90 state seats it contested.
Chua said after working with his deputy for four years, he found Liow not to be a fighter and someone who tended to avoid major issues.
"He kept saying Chua Soi Lek was trying to bully him, accusing me of being tainted.
"If he cannot handle Chua Soi Lek, how is he going to handle an aggressive opposition and Umno.
"How is he going to function if he cannot even stop his supporters from washing dirty linen in public?"
Chua said he had no problems letting go of the presidency as he loves the party more than his post.
"This is an acid test for Liow to show his love for the party, as claimed by him all along, rather than providing mere lip service," he said.
Chua said it is his duty to handover the party to capable, visionary leaders who have the guts to do what is required to renew and reform the party.

If it is handed to Liow, he'll turn MCA into another Gerakan

He said the party has many capable up-and-coming young leaders who have shown leadership capabilities to take MCA forward.
"If it is handed to Liow, he'll turn MCA into another Gerakan," he said in reference to the multi-racial Barisan Nasional component party that is considered toothless by many.
Gerakan fared even worse than MCA in the 13th general election, winning only one federal and two state seats.
Chua said the party needed young leaders to take over in order to remain relevant.
Noting that by 2016, there will be an estimated 16 million voters of which seven million will be 30 years old and below, Chua said young leaders will be able to relate to the younger voters. - October 11, 2013.
