“Marketing” by Chia Yu Chian (Malaysian) - Oil on canvas / 1971 - National Gallery Singapore (Singapore) #WomenInArt #ChiaYuChian #NationalGallerySingapore #MalaysianArt #AsianArt #WomenAtWork #ModernArt #art #artText #arte #SocialRealism #Modernism #1970sArt #MalaysianArtist #SoutheastAsianArt

Malaysian artist Chia Yu Chian turns an everyday transaction into a densely observed portrait of social life. Rather than monumentalizing a single person, he lets individuals overlap, bend, wait, examine goods, converse, and negotiate within a shared public space. The title “Marketing” uses an older sense of the word like “going to market to buy provisions.” Women dominate the scene, appearing as shoppers, vendors, and participants in the informal economy that sustained daily urban life. A crowded open-air market fills this vertical oil painting with women, produce, and overlapping bodies. Closest to us, a dark-haired woman in a vivid coral-red top sits with her back turned, her patterned skirt spreading across the lower edge. Nearby is vendor in brown seated behind baskets and low tables overflowing with bananas, leafy vegetables, red and green fruit, and other goods. Behind them, women cluster closely together: one in a lavender headscarf and white clothing raises a hand toward her face, while others wear yellow, turquoise, green, pink, and patterned garments. Faces emerge and disappear among the tightly packed figures. A pale mint-green background surrounds the group, intensifying the saturated colors and compressed bustle of the market. Born in Johor in 1936, Chia developed his practice between Malaysia, Singapore, and Paris. He studied privately with Nanyang painter Chen Wen Hsi before receiving a French government scholarship to study at the École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts. After returning to Malaysia, Chia increasingly focused on ordinary people and the rapidly changing life of Kuala Lumpur. His later paintings became especially attentive to workers, street vendors, families, hospital patients, and others rarely treated as heroic subjects. In “Marketing,” thick outlines, flattened space, and exuberant color transform a familiar market into a record of human proximity: noisy, crowded, imperfect, and alive.

Oh, when the Smithsonian can be used to schmooze the wife of the president of China, it's a great institution. There are going to be signs put up outside the Smithsonian museums saying that exhibits aren't accurate and don't reflect the American way.

By Okada Saburōsuke (1869-1939), Portrait of a Lady, 1907, oil, 733x615 cm, Artizon Museum, Tokyo. #arthistory #oilpainting #painting #japaneseart #asianart More info in ALT.

From the museum: “Okada Saburosuke won first prize at the 1907 Tokyo Industrial Exhibition for this painting, which initially was entitled Study in Purple, a reference to the purple cords that lace the drum. The woman wearing a Genroku-style kimono and her hair in a chignon seem about to strike the drum. In the background is a Rimpa-style folding screen with a design of fringed pinks and flowing water. This painting was commissioned by Takahashi Yoshio, who was involved in the management of Mitsukoshi Drapery Store and had touched off the Genroku motif boom. The subject is his wife, Chiyoko. This familiar painting was used in a poster for the Mitsukoshi’s Spring New Pattern Show and later as a postage stamp.”
