I wish to congratulate the Director, Mr. Koay Soo Kau for his great passion in promoting art and in building up this art gallery into one of the best in this country. The art scene in Penang has been very vibrant in the past 10 years. Galeri Seni Mutiara has contributed greatly by providing an excellent venue for many young as well as established artists, both local and international, to exhibit their works. It also provides the important place for art lovers and collectors to view and purchase art works, as well as to socialize in a very conducive environment right in the heart of George Town. It is my sincere hope that the gallery under Mr. Koay will continue to blossom and bring the Penang art scene to a greater height in the future. Dr. Tan Chong Guan PKT, PJK 3 Ten Years’ Journey Ten years have passed quickly like the twinkle of an eye since the gallery first opened its doors in November 2005. The first exhibition on 6th November was by the late Tan Lye Hoe, whereby the whole proceeds from the sale of the artworks were donated to the Heart Patients’ Fund of the Adventist Hospital, Penang. He was indeed a very generous man. The inaugural exhibition of the gallery was on 17th December 2005 and was officially declared open by Y.B. Dato’ Haji Yahaya Bin Abdul Hamid. The man responsible for the setting up of the gallery is Dr. Tan Chong Guan who motivated me. My first collector is Dato’ Dr. Tan Chong Siang. Both the brothers are responsible in the making of Koay Soo Kau as an artist in 1969 and the establishment of the gallery in 2005. For ten years it is the gallery’s vision to promote art in Penang. Its mission is to encourage, develop and foster interest in art and inculcate an appreciation and understanding between the artist and the public. One hundred and fifty nine exhibitions were held in this gallery over the past ten years by local and overseas artists. Based on the passion of art, galleries are able to survive because collectors still acquire art for art’s sake. The passion and willpower to create art is still being practised by many artists despite the lure of producing mediocre or stereotypical works for instant gain. The gallery showcases not only works of the young contemporary artists but also the first generation artists of Penang. The prominent artists like Yong Mun Sen, Kuo Ju Ping, Tay Hooi Keat, Dato’ Chuah Thean Teng, Dato’ Khaw Sia, Lee Cheng Yong, Tan Choon Ghee, Ho Khay Beng, John Lee Ju For, Chia Yu Chian and Zakaria Nor are featured in the Collector’s Gallery. The maintenance and running of the gallery is not an easy task. It needs hard work, patience and endurance. The essence of trust, integrity, love and passion for art between the artist and the gallery for the collectors are vital in order to achieve success. My sincere thanks to Dato’ Dr. Tan Chong Siang for being the distinguished Guest of Honour for this exhibition. My utmost thanks to Dr. Tan Chong Guan for being the Patron of the gallery and his continuous support for the development of art. Thank you to Dato’ Khoo Kay Huat and Seaswift Freight System (PG) Sdn. Bhd. for sponsoring the publication of the exhibition catalogue. I am very happy to see so many artists participating in this 10th Anniversary Exhibition which attribute to the success of the gallery. It will definitely help to put the spirit and life of art into Penang.

    UC Berkeley Cross-Currents: East Asian History and Culture Review Title Domesticating Hybridity: Straits Chinese Cultural Heritage Projects in Malaysia and Singapore Permalink https://escholarship.org/uc/item/67q2984p Journal Cross-Currents: East Asian History and Culture Review, 1(17) ISSN 2158-9674 Author Teoh, Karen M. Publication Date 2015-12-01 eScholarship.org Powered by the California Digital Library University of California Domesticating Hybridity: Straits Chinese Cultural Heritage Projects in Malaysia and Singapore Karen M. Teoh, Stonehill College Abstract This article examines the literal and figurative domestication of Straits Chinese, or Peranakan, history in selected heritage projects in late twentieth-century Malaysia and Singapore. These projects simultaneously foreground Straits Chinese history as a symbol of interracial harmony and marginalize it as a cultural artifact. Over the late nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the ethnoculturally hybrid Straits Chinese positioned themselves as “the King’s Chinese,” champions of a Confucian-values renaissance, and citizens of independent Malaysia and Singapore. Their adaptability helped them survive the upheaval of imperialism, decolonization, and nation building, but it was also controversial for its suggestion of political flexibility. Today, Southeast Asian governments and the Peranakan themselves depict the community as a uniquely local model of ethnic integration. Museums and historic homes emphasize portrayals and consumption of supposedly feminine aspects of Peranakan culture

This study aims to identify strategies to sustain the market for cultural heritage products of the Baba-Nyonya in Malacca. Qualitative research in the form of face-to- face interviews was conducted at the Baba-Nyonya Heritage Museum and Straits Chinese Jewellery Museum in Malacca. Data were subsequently analysed using thematic analysis. Results showed that the key to sustainability lies in promoting interest in and appreciation for the culture of the Baba-Nyonya among local visitors, tourists, and especially the next generation. Their unique products should be displayed in museums and antique shops, as well as advertised on social media platforms. Other venues for marketing include traditional Baba-Nyonya celebrations featuring performances, games, and food tasting events, which can be organized and supported by Peranakan associations. Key words: Baba Nyonya, Cultural Heritage, Sustainable, Peranakan. 150 International Journal of Innovation, Creativity and Change. www.ijicc.net Volume 10, Issue 6, 2019 Introduction Since the 1980s, the Malacca state government has been successfully developing tourism as its primary economic sector (Razali, 2003).

    Methodology Iconological Analysis of the Peranakan Intimate Lifestyle: A Case Study of Sylvia Lee Goh's Woman, Oh! Woman Painting Series Eddy Izuwan Musa* and Sarena Abdullah School of the Arts, Universiti Sains Malaysia, MALAYSIA *Corresponding author: [email protected] Published online: 31 October 2017 To cite this article: Eddy Izuwan Musa and Sarena Abdullah. 2017. Iconological analysis of the peranakan intimate lifestyle: A case study of Sylvia Lee Goh's Woman, Oh! Woman painting series. Wacana Seni Journal of Arts Discourse 16: 135–162. https://doi.org/10.21315/ws2017.16.6 To link to this article: https://doi.org/10.21315/ws2017.16.6 ABSTRACT The Peranakan Chinese, sometimes known as the Baba Nyonya, are known for their hybrid culture. Most studies on the Peranakan examine the architectural heritage, material culture and cuisine; there is limited focus on the study of visual artworks of the Peranakan. This paper explores and analyses a painting series entitled, "Woman Oh! Woman Series" by Sylvia Lee Goh, a descendant of a Peranakan family in Kedah, who works predominantly in producing Nyonya-themed paintings. This paper provides a deeper reading of this series by drawing on Panofsky's theory of iconography and iconology as a tool in discussing these artworks within the larger context of Peranakan culture. Through Panofsky's three stages of iconography, this paper explores how the four artworks in the "Woman Oh! Woman Series" could be read through three main significant trajectories in parallel with the Peranakan ethos—the persistence of nature veneration against mortality and ancestor worship, refined etiquette and gender roles, and camaraderie and communal guest reverence.
