Abstract

Abstract In the past fifteen to twenty years, the Malaysian market-oriented art world has evolved and expanded. Within this evolution and expansion, many interesting trajectories took place not in tandem with the promulgation of the Malaysian marketoriented art world. Thus, this article serves as an attempt to trace changes in the Malaysian art scene not based on the establishment of the ‘art world’, but the coexistence of alternative art practices since the late 1990s that occurred within the same period. Therefore, this article will discuss several alternative courses that surfaced since the establishment of several alternative art groups, collectives and spaces in Malaysia. These initiatives later led to various public programmes organized by such groups and spaces. Examples of the aforementioned public programmes include art talks, workshops, exhibitions, exploratory works and even art festivals in an effort to involve the public in community-engaged art projects.
