马来西亚国家艺术馆1958年成立，当年第一任义务秘书Frank Sullivan先生和信托委员会成员林碧颜律师秉持职业操守、实事求是、大力提倡正确史观，可惜经常被人忽略。
The National Gallery of Art Malaysia was established in 1958. At that time, Mr. Frank Sullivan, the first Hon .Secretary, and P.G.Lim, a member of the Board of Trustee, upheld professional ethics, sought truth from facts, and vigorously advocated correct historical views. Unfortunately, they were often ignored nowadays.
1970年代的 “Soul and Form" 系列其中作品之一，35年后， 终于2015年首次在东南亚亮相（@新加坡美术馆的开幕展）

欲善其事，必先通其史
2008: “…In my meeting with artists and others in the art scene thus far, I have become directed to artists whose works and contributions have been missed out in the existing mainstream narratives of Malaysian art history. Your name (Lee Kian Seng), in particular, has come out many times as one of the artists in the earlier generations whose work has been missed out and under-recognised. I am following this lead in my research and I hope to be able to meet up with you...”. --- In 2008, a regional scholar on South East Asia Study wrote to Lee Kian Seng）。
" .....His creative versatility has contributed to the enrichment of the Malaysian art scene. .. always responds whenever his services are needed for the cause of art and his fellow artists... In all his works Lee Kian Seng projects creativity, intellectual content and a high standard of professionalism.” - Director of the National art Gallery Malaysia1987, Datuk Syed Ahmad Jamal (National Art Laureate)
[ 译文] ：2008年的电邮: “……在我与艺术家及艺术界其他人的会面中，我已经被引导到马来西亚艺术史的现有主流叙述中那些作品和贡献已被遗漏的艺术家。在作品已被错过并且得不到承认的前辈艺术家当中，你的名字（Lee Kian Seng）出现特别多次。我的研究随这引线, 我希望能与你见面…” ，一位顶级大学的东南亚研究学者为了研究大马艺术史的来龙去脉，来电邮寻求访谈，2008年1月终于找到了李健省。

to suggest that there are many intertwining, inter-connected and inter-locking

缘起于1970年在世界博览会EXPO70马来西亚馆发表的 “UNITY” （团结）（1969-1970）李健省（Lee Kian Seng）1970年代的一系列3维作品是马来西亚装置艺术的最初催化剂。大部分在马来西亚国家美术馆发表。他的系列作品，表征了一个崛起的前沿思维，穿越了当年所谓“（马来西亚）国家文化”大会的喧嚣。
其作品呈现了（1）开创性贡献（2）对当代社会的思考（3）获得的认可和奖项(11项顶级国家奖和2项国际奖）（4）对未来艺术家的影响等。他的作品在塑造/启发马来西亚艺术的轨迹和扩大该国艺术表达的可能性方面发挥了重要作用。(AI )

"I am afraid the most dreadful form of social control is not the aggressive in-your-face measures, raw force or torture against dissenting voices. It is rather a narrative strategy craftily designed to create a parameter and order of knowledge structure by drowning and distorting the facts of history. This would pave the way for all future speech and narrative to fall within the standard and disciplinary framework established by the authorities."-- O.Young（Chinese/English）
“……最可怕的社会压制恐怕不是赤裸裸的打压与对异议分子的虐待，而是一种將歷史淹没与变形的论述策略，製造一种知识系统的规范与秩序，使以后所有的言论敘说，都必须在其既定的准则和戒律框架中进行。” --- 欧阳文风（摘自南洋商报新视野2008-04-28《马来西亚装置艺术之父――李健省》）（Chinese/English）http://www.leekianseng.com/lee_YZZK.pdf

Of all his installation works, Lee’s 1977 masterpiece Of ‘Image, Object, Illusion’-Off
Series Mechanism is by far the most imaginative and controversial. It too was added to the Permanent
Collection of
the National Art Gallery Malaysia. In conjunction with the 45th anniversary celebration
of
its establishment, the Gallery organized the 45@45 Exhibition in late 2003. For this event, 45
highly
respected
people in cultural circles were invited
to
select 45 major works from the
Permanent Collection of the Gallery and elaborate on their choices. Lee Kian Seng was also among
the 45 invited, so was Dato’ (Ms) P.G. Lim, who played a key role in the early development of the National Art Gallery having served
as the Deputy Chairperson of its Board of Trustees and the first Chairperson of the Exhibitions Committee.
Of ‘Image, Object, Illusion’-Off Series Mechanism was among the 45 selected works and the
only installation
work displayed. It was made up of several items including a painting on canvas
hung on the wall, and an 8 x16 square
feet 6mm playwood (painted white) on the floor extending
from the wall to a white podium, above which a Malaysian flag was juxtaposed at approximately
the same level(88’height) as the two dimensional painting on the wall that reflects the flag in
reverse. Lights were set to cast shadows of the national flag on the painting and on the white
plywood floor. The resulting spatial interaction between image and object creates a delicate
interplay of positive and negative Yin and Yang elements.
Another point worth mentioning is the presence of the ubiquitous cockroach at the top right of
the image
of
the flag on the wall in the painting. Between painting and shadow, the viewer gets a
sense of illusion that provokes the imagination. Through a combination of visual, intuitive and cognitive stimuli, viewers are led to explore new frontiers in their thinking on the basis of their personal aesthetics and experiences.
While the National Art Gallery Malaysia had added this work to their Permanent Collection, they have regrettably failed to fulfill the responsibility of treasuring and safeguarding such a highly
symbolic and creative work of art. In their 1994 publication Vision and Idea—Relooking Modern Malaysian Art, they went so far as to make a number of serious mistakes that included showing an
inaccurate title, as well as tampering with the art pieces such as replacing the white podium with one of black-carpeted wooden steps, and wiping out the image of the cockroach on the painting.
The 16’ x 8’ square white plywood on floor also missing. As the result, the work is made to assume
a changed appearance. It is a wonder how they can make such mistakes in the handling of an artwork in their collection. Consequently, Lee lodged a written complaint time and again, seeking a specific and favorable response, but all to no avail.
The publications of
the National Art Gallery are considered official works with definite historical value and significance. Yet surprisingly, they have repeatedly taken the liberty of revising historical facts. How could a simple “regret” suffice to describe such a blunder? The issue actually goes
beyond the mere infringement of the artist’s personal respect to one of national interest. At stake is
an integral part of the nation’s historiography. In the face of such blatant disregard to the nation’s accurate historical documentation, how can anyone remain silent?
The National Art Gallery Malaysia organized the National “Open Art and Graphic Print Competition
1977” from 20 Dec 1977 to 26 Feb 1978. With this work, Lee won the Major Award for the Art
category. The other Minor Award winners included academician CHONG Kam Kow, Sulaiman Esa, and Ruzaika Omar Basree of UITM
and USM art lecturer Lim Eng Hooi. LEE Kian Seng also bagged the Major Award for the print-making category.
Art critic Cecil Rajendra gave this work a very high opinion. He wrote, “Here is a painting that makes a settlement on a number of levels. It speaks of our past, our present and our future. It is loaded with symbolism that teases and invites the viewer to interpretations. Why is the flag reversed? What does the cockroach on the top right of the painting mean? Does it augur ill for our future? It is also a beautifully composed picture that achieves an almost perfect balance between subject matter and media. It is brilliantly executed and well merits the top award." (An excerpt from the Exhibition Catalogue of the Open Art and Graphic Competition 1977, National Art
Gallery Malaysia.)

另一值得一提的是画面上国旗的投影里有只蟑螂，在画面与投影之间，予人一种幻觉的感受，激发观众想像，藉著视觉、直觉与知觉的刺激，让观众本着个人的美学与经验，开拓思想空间。
国家艺术馆出版的刊物，可说是官方文献，具有一定的历史价值与意义，可却一而再，再而三的擅自改写史实，岂又是遗憾二字可以形容 ？这已不再只是涉及不尊重艺术家的个人的问题了，而是关乎一个国家、民族的历史问题。我们岂可能继续保持缄默？
欧阳文风2006年12月于纽约
<李健省更正：欧阳文风稿于2006年12月>
Lee’s work Unity/团结 (1969/70) was completed during the cataclysmic racial conflicts that culminated in bloodshed on May 13, 1969. In the year that followed,
the piece was published
at the Malaysia Pavilion World Exposition 1970
hosted by Japan
A true work of art is, of necessity, born of the times. It is an intensely passionate stare at life in
the face. Not only does it convey the artist’s philosophical ideals, it embodies the harsh reality of life as well. It may have its foundation
deeply rooted in reality, or it may break away from
conventional fetters
and
point the way forward to sha （ping the future. It may showcase the artist’s
real
self and his subjective aspirations, but more so, it transcends the depth of human nature in an
individual artist. It may be an imitation of nature, yet it may also be a resistance and challenge against imitation. This is because the artist’s work is more than crude imitation, as its creator’s imagination goes far beyond the disguise of nature. The artist’s exaggerated expressions mirror the
emotional struggle in his inner soul. His works therefore possess the power to stimulate the visual senses and provoke the intellect.
Unity is a symbol of the oneness of the three major ethnic groups in Malaysia.
The work
expresses the hope, unity and peaceful co-existence of humankind. There are two enclosed forms to
this piece of installation that are fused into a unifying singularity. The first comprises a gigantic human form made of reinforced concrete, created prior to the May 13 incident. The second, developed after May 13, consists of several entities set beneath the structure, including metal rods, key holders, and three mirrors—the mirrors of Science, of the Arts, and of the Humanities
respectively. They represent the essential elements for the advancement of human civilization, each
reflecting the other’s spirit of the times. The chaos and errors of the world are also mirrored therein.
The statue is lit from within at night to create a stunning visual effect. At the time of the May 13 incident, Lee happened to be abroad. But the tragedy left him absolutely devastated—so much so that he splattered red paint all over the figurative structure. The act in itself was a symbol of dashed hopes and dreams. So it was after the production of Unity that the concept and technique of Lee’s installation art became more and more evolved.
(note:<Unity> comprising two enclosed forms, 400x120x120 cm and 45cm x 45cm x 65 cm.
Mixed media of reinforced concrete, , glass, steel, mirror, key holder, lit from within。(left) red paint was poured all over the structure, allowing it to flow down as if it was bleeding .
(right) after the May 13,1969
incident, the formation of 2nd enclosed forms was evolved, consisting of three mirrors, mirror of Science, mirror of Arts and mirrors of Humanism. Photo taken at World
Exposition 1970. )

个人简介
李健省 (Lee
Kian Seng)-亚洲独立艺术家
http://lee-kian-seng.blogspot.com/ http://www.leekianseng.com 20250118
1948 年出生于中国（福建金门），李健省(Lee Kian Seng)是马来西亚著名的亚洲独立艺术家，其作品涵盖绘画、雕塑、版画、染色和装置艺术等。
1964年以作品《三轮车夫与鸟》(The Beggar and the Bird)应邀参加马来西亚国家艺术馆的 “国家美展” （National Art Exhibition） 。
1966年，马来西亚艺术议会举办他的个人画展（Exhibition of Paintings by Lee Kian Seng, an Arts Council Presentation,17-22 October 1966），广受好评，此后在马来西亚、泰国和日本举办了二十一场个展。
他早期对艺术界的接触以及自幼的自主学习为他未来的艺术事业奠定了基础，极大地影响了他的艺术哲学和实践，促进了终身学习，并促使他在整个职业生涯中探索各种媒介和技巧。4
他坚信艺术并非存在于真空中，因此他奉行“以知识为基础”的艺术取向，进行开创性的实验和富有洞察力的创造性研究，1969-1972 年, 他在东京独立从事 “染色艺术” 的跨学科研究，其中包括对江户时代 浮世绘 *的研究等。期间兼职，于世界博览会（World EXPO 1970，Osaka Japan）马来西亚馆发表3次元作品《UNITY》(团结)和三幅大型画作《黎明 (Dawn)》、《正午 (Noon)》、《黄昏 (Dusk)》 1。
李健省标志性的作品，“团结”（Unity1969～1970）、“ 自天空“（From the Sky, 1972），“人类”（Mankind,1972） 、“红色的视窗”（From the Windows of
Red,1972）、“扑克牌游戏过程”（Process of Playing Poker,1974）、“复始与消耗” (Resumption and Consumption，1975）、“形像、物体、假象”（ Of
‘Image,Object,Illusion’ - Off Series Mechanism ,1977）、“铁锤与铁钉系列”( Hammer and Nail
series,1977) 、“试管婴孩 ”（Test tube Baby,1979），1970年代的 “Soul and Form” 等系列，确立了其在马来西亚当代艺术主流中的历史地位。
本质上，他 1970 年代的 3D 作品代表了一种前沿思维（东方文化）的崛起，穿越了当时的国家文化大会（NCC 1971，https://muse.jhu.edu/article/752969）的喧嚣。他将各种材料和技术融入到他的装置中，模糊了学科之间的界限。这是马来西亚装置艺术的最初催化剂，为这种艺术形式在马来西亚艺术界的出现铺平了道路。他经常被公认为马来西亚的“装置艺术之父”。2

近年的《当今系列》和《无际系列》（油画混合技法）主要在探索生命奥秘，人性关怀，也经常批判地反映当代的社会问题和文化景观 。http://www.leekianseng.com/lee_YZZK.pdf
“诸如李健省之类的开拓性作品具有历史重要性 ” ---林碧颜 （（Ms P.G. Lim (Tan Sri Dato’)，马来西亚艺术历史观察家（45@45特刊2003））。
https://www.iseas.edu.sg/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/Lim-Phaik-Gan-Biographical-Notes.pdf).
“他的创造性多功能性促进了马来西亚艺术界的丰富...每当艺术事业或艺术同僚需要他的服务时，他总会响应...在他的所有作品中都展现了创造力，智力含量和高级专业水平 ” -- 马来西亚国家艺术馆总监1987-- Datuk Syed Ahmad Jamal。
李健省的开创性作品和哲学在塑造马来西亚艺术的发展轨迹、营造更具活力和互动性的艺术环境方面发挥了至关重要的作用。自2019年10月起，马来西亚教育部将李健省（ Lee Kian Seng）的成就收录在国民型中学四年级美术教科书《PENGKHUSUSAN Sekolah
Seni Malaysia Tingkatan 4 - Tokoh dan Pengkarya - Lee Kian Seng》页161。（1925）

注1 1970年，我（李健省/ Lee Kian Seng）在世界博览会（Expo 70）马来西亚馆的工作参与让我有机会观摩与解读来自世界各国的优秀创作与文化精华。世界艺术文化薰陶了我的世界观, 磨炼了我的成长。接着我开始挑战沉思意识，并深入三度空间的创作，之间〈美国科学〉研究期刊 (Scientific
American) 有关视觉心理与视觉艺术的研究论文是我热中的，我希望利用新知识领域里的新资源，重新建造艺术理论基础。同年代我对象形文字 (Pictograph) 的组合入迷，与新资源相辅相成，逐步把中华文化的元素, 包括剪纸艺术构思在我的创作里。1972年的三次元（3D）作品 “Mankind” 是其中一例。
“现代艺术是各种语言的组合，汉字本身就是平面化的装置艺术 (Installation)，他在七二年创《人类》（Mankind）艺术装置作品，也是融合这理念开展的。” (摘自亚洲周刊2011-02-06)
2在艰难而压抑的1970年代，李健省以东方文化的太极阴阳思维（三分法）反思当代社会，通过互动元素和场地特定装置，融合了多种材料和技术，模糊了学科之间的界限。
他在1970年代的开创性装置、艺术的多样性和对创新的承诺，使他成为马来西亚及其他地区当代艺术发展的关键人物，同时也启发和影响了后来的几代马来西亚艺术家。
可惜，从1990年代至2000年代，马来西亚国家艺术馆的官方出版物开始出现一些不正确的历史记录。其中包括李健省的作品《形像、物体、假象（ Of ‘Image,Object,Illusion’ - Off Series Mechanism (1977）》和《人类（MANKIND）(1972)》均被严重篡改。 （對大馬藝術界現象的補充 https://www.sinchew.com.my/?p=2199349）
[ “……最后，我们想指出，马来西亚现代艺术有许多相互交织、相互联系和相互关联的 ‘面孔’，而这些不同的面孔（或界面）可能会呈现出相互矛盾的图景，这些图景最终必须得到承认，甚至值得庆祝和尊重（或以文明的方式进行辩论和争论）。” --- 摘自《代际之间——马来西亚现代艺术 50 年》一书，该书与 Beverly Yong 和 Hasnul J.Saidon 于 2007 年 8 月策划的展览同时出版。该展览由马来亚大学、马来西亚理科大学、Valentine Willie Fine Art（马来西亚）和 Penjana Bebas Malaysia 主办。]
[ 2008
年，一位此区域顶级大学的东南亚研究学者来讯 ： “……在我与艺术家及艺术界其他人的会面中，我已经被引导到马来西亚艺术史的现有主流叙述中，那些作品和贡献已被遗漏的艺术家。在作品已被错过并且得不到承认的前辈艺术家当中，你的名字（Lee Kian Seng）出现特别多次。我的研究随这引线, 我希望能与你见面…”]
披荆斩棘、李健省花了 20 年时间寻求恢复其作品《形像、物体、假象（ Of ‘Image,Object,Illusion’
- Off Series Mechanism (1977）》和《人类（MANKIND）(1972)》 的历史真相，其中包括马来西亚艺术史观察家拿督林碧颜P.G. Lim被严重篡改的文献。最后 9 年得到了Messrs. V Chong W

Brief -bio
Lee Kian Seng （李健省）-- Asian independent artist http://lee-kian-seng.blogspot.com/
http://www.leekianseng.com
Born in China in 1948, Lee Kian
Seng is a prominent Asian independent artist from Malaysia, whose repertoire includes painting, sculpture,
printmaking (lithography), resist-dyeing and installation art.
He was first invited to the National Art Exhibition by the National Art Gallery of Malaysia in 1964, where he showed the work, "The Beggar and the Bird"（三轮车夫与鸟）.
In 1966 , the Arts Council of Malaysia
presented his first solo art exhibition (17-22 October 1966) which was critically acclaimed. Since then, he has had 21 other solo art exhibitions not only
in Malaysia, but also in Thailand and Japan.
His early exposure to the art community and
self-directed learning since childhood laid the foundation for his future
artistic endeavors, significantly influenced his artistic philosophy and
practice, fostering lifelong learning and prompted him to explore a variety of
mediums and techniques throughout his career. 4
Believing
that Art does not exist in a vacuum, he pursued a K-based (Knowledge-based) art
orientation, with ground-breaking experiments and insightful creative research,
spending three years (1969–1972) in
Tokyo doing interdisciplinary studies in “dyeing art” which incorporated research
on” Ukiyo-e” of the Edo period,
among others. During the same period, he published a
three-dimensional work "UNITY"
and three large paintings "Dawn", "Noon" and
"Dusk" at the Malaysian Pavilion at the World EXPO 1970 in Osaka Japan1.
His
iconic works, such as Unity (1969-1970), From the Sky (1972), Mankind (1972), From
the Windows of Red (1972), Process of Playing Poker (1974), Resumption and
Consumption (1975), Of ‘Image, Object, Illusion’ - Off Series Mechanism (1977),
Hammer and Nail series (1977), Test tube Baby (1979), and the Soul and Form
series in the 1970s, have established his historical position in the mainstream
of Malaysian contemporary art.
Essentially, his 3-D works from the 1970s
represented the rise of a cutting-edge thinking (Eastern culture) that passed
through the hustle and bustle of the then National Cultural Congress (NCC 1971 , https://muse.jhu.edu/article/752969 ). He incorporated
diverse materials and techniques into his installations, blurring boundaries
between disciplines. It was the initial catalyst for installation art in
Malaysia, paving way for this art form in the Malaysian art scene. and is
often
recognized as the "father of Installation art" in Malaysia.2
In 1976, he was invited by the Japan
Foundation to research at the Tokyo National University of Fine Arts and Music
and Tokyo Hanga Kenkyusho (Tokyo Printmaking Atelier) with a Professional
Fellowship. His research, "Comparative Study - Dyeing Art", has
inspired him to expand the parameters of the genre.
Lee Kian Seng has been part of
many international exhibitions since the 1960s, including the Sao Paulo X
Biennale in 1969,the Waratah Spring Festival, Australia in 1965; the "Man
And His World" exhibition in Montreal, Canada in 1970; the 1st and 4th
Triennale of Contemporary World Art in New Delhi in 1967 and 1978 respectively;
the Tokyo Print Biennale in 1979; the Contemporary Asian Art, Fukuoka, Japan in
1980, the Malaysian Art touring Australia and New Zealand in 1969; the
Malaysian Art at ‘Expo 70’ Osaka, Japan; ‘Malaysian Art 1965-1978’
Commonwealth Institute, London in 1978; the ASEAN Exhibition of Painting and
Photography in 1982, 1983, 1984; the ‘Contemporary Paintings of Malaysia’ in
Pacific Asia Museum, Los Angeles, United States in 1988; ‘Malaysian Art’ touring
Germany (1990-1991); and ‘Experience South-east Asian Art’ at the National
Gallery Singapore in 2015.
As Malaysia's national representative at the ASEAN Square Sculpture
Symposium in Jakarta in 1984, he built the monumental sculpture, "Peace,
Harmony and One,” which is permanently displayed at Taman Suropati, Jakarta,
Indonesia.
About 60 years of dedicated artistic creation, Lee Kian Seng
has won several top-notch national awards 3 from the National
Art Gallery of Malaysia including the Major Art Award and Major Graphic Award
in the ‘Open Art and Graphic Print Competition 1977’; the Major Award in the
‘Young Artists Contemporaries’ (Bakat Muda Sezaman) in 1975: one of the
two Major Awards in the ‘Landscape Malaysia’ competition 1972; the Minor Award
in the ‘Man and his World’ exhibition in 1973; and three prizes in the first
‘Salon Malaysia’ in 1969.
His other accolades include the 3rd Prize (Category B) in the ‘Joy of
Living’ competition in 1964; and the Best Exhibit Prize and 1st Prize (Oil
Painting category) in the ‘10th Young Artists’ in 1966, both from the Arts
Council of Malaysia.
Lee Kian Seng led the Malaysian national team to the 2nd Prize placing
in the International Sand Sculpture competition in Hong Kong in 1988 with their
work entitled 《HARMONY》. (Team: Lee Kian Seng (leader), Zakaria Awang, Zulkifli Yusoff, Kung
Yu Liew, and Zainon Abdullah).
In 1993, he won the highly acclaimed Tokyo Creation Award Overseas
Prize, in recognition of his excellent exploration, innovation and creativity
in 'Dye and resist technique', and for making known batik/dyes painting
worldwide.
In 2000, he was invited by the Malaysian Structural Steel
Association to serve as one of the jury members of its international "Open
Ideas Competition" (ASEAN architects and designers).
In recent years, his " Dang Jin Series (当今系列) " and " Wuji Series (无际系列) " (mixed oil painting techniques) mainly explore the mysteries of life
and human care, and often critically reflect contemporary social issues and
cultural landscapes. ( https://www.leekianseng.com/lee_YZZK.pdf《当今系列》)
” Pioneering works such as those of Lee Kian Seng are of historical importance”, commented Ms P.G. Lim (Tan Sri Dato’, a Malaysian art history observer and the recipient of the Merdeka Award 2009. (45@45，2003)).
" His creative versatility has contributed
to the enrichment of the Malaysian art scene. . .. always
responds whenever his services are needed for the cause of art and his fellow
artists....In all his works Lee Kian Seng projects creativity, intellectual
content and a high standard of professionalism.” -- Datuk Syed Ahmad Jamal
(Director of the National art Gallery Malaysia 1987, National Art Laureate)
Lee Kian
Seng’s groundbreaking work and philosophy have played a crucial role in shaping
the trajectory of Malaysian art, fostering a more dynamic and interactive art environment. Since October 2019, the Ministry of
Education of Malaysia included Lee Kian Seng's achievements in the National

1 My（Lee Kian Seng） participation at
the Malaysia Pavilion” World Expo 1970”
had given me a chance to view and interpret the best of contemporary world art
and culture. World art and culture have since shaped my worldview and refined
my professional growth. Next, I began to stretch the limits of philosophical
ideology to explore the new frontiers of 3-D art, during which time I buried
myself in the journals of Scientific
American, particularly in studies in respect of visual psychology and
perception that shape visual art. I hope to fully exploit the latest resources
in order to reconstruct my own art theories surrounding these new-found
frontiers. In that same period, I became fascinated with Chinese pictographic
characters, and working hand in hand with the latest resources, I gradually
incorporated elements of the Chinese culture, including paper cutting into my
works. One example is my 3-D installation Mankind
in 1972. ）
Each part of a Chinese script character has its own
original meaning; the combination or the juxtaposition of interchangeable
elements and combination gives birth to new meaning, such as the combination of
the pictograph Sun (日ri) and Moon (月yue) creates the
word “明 ming” which literally means “bright.”
From the 1990s to 2000s, some incorrect historical records have begun to appear in the official publications of the National Art Gallery of Malaysia. These include Lee Kian Seng’s works “Of ‘Image, Object, Illusion’ - Off Series Mechanism (1977)” and “MANKIND (1972)”, which were severely tampered with.
Lee Kian Seng faced several challenges in his artistic career, including Historical Revisionism. Hs work have been tampered with and he has since begun the long process of Restoring Historical Truth.
From 2000, Lee Kian Seng dedicated 20 years to seeking to restore the historical truth regarding his works《Mankind》 (1972) ,《 “Of ‘Image, Object, Illusion’- Off Series Mechanism” 》 (1977) and the essay by a Malaysian art history observer Dato P.G.Lim, which has been heavily tampered with. With the last nine years supported by legal assistance from lawyers Wendy Lam Mei Kuan and Tan Zhao Ying of Messrs. V Chong W Lam. Ref: VW 21(140). This lengthy process highlighted the difficulties he faced in ensuring that his contributions were accurately represented and recognized.
National Art Gallery of Malaysia finally published a revised version ( CTP hard copy ) on August 30, 2021 and corrected
some errors in the following four books published between 1994 and 2008，which can be obtained from the National Art Gallery reception
counter upon request.

[ Historical Revisionism: The actions of
certain individuals in the art community undermined the recognition of Lee Kian
Seng’s pioneering role and the significance of his works in the context of
Malaysian art history. This historical revisionism posed a threat to his legacy
and the acknowledgment of his contributions.]
[ “…In my meeting with artists and others in the art scene thus far, I have become directed to artists whose works and contributions have been missed out in the existing mainstream narratives of Malaysian art history. Your name (Lee Kian Seng), in particular, has come out many times as one of the artists in the earlier generations whose work has been missed out and under-recognised. I am following this lead in my research and I hope to be able to meet up with you...”. ] -- -in 2008, a regional scholar noted that Lee Kian Seng 's work had been overlooked in mainstream narratives of Malaysian art history, highlighting the ongoing struggle for recognition and the need to restore historical truth regarding his contributions.
Since 2010, Goodenei.com, led by one Goh Ah
Ang吴亚鸿, has published (unauthorized and wantonly
abused) erroneous data and narratives from “Masterpieces from the National Art
Gallery of Malaysia (2002)” pages 186-187, causing serious damage to Lee Kian
Seng’s professional status, reputation and public image internationally.

Notes 杂记

“……. In the 1971 National Cultural Congress (Malaysia)
met to reconstruct the terms of a ‘national culture’ for our newly reconstituted
nation. The Malays had asserted their hegemony and laid claim to the economic
fruits of the nation, which the earlier liberal approach of the period immediately
following independence had failed to deliver. The National Economic Policy
(NEP) had been put in place with the aim of reconstructing wealth and opportunity
for advancement in favour of the Malays. The National Congress asserted the
necessity for Malay prominence in the realm of culture. The Dasar Kebudayaan
or ‘Foundations of Culture’ were drawn up stating the necessity for the
predominance of the indigenous cultures of the region, the possibility of incorporating
other cultures where appropriate and the importance of Islam. Though this document
never gained the force of law its tenets have permeated the official narrative
of all Malaysian cultural production, including the visual arts. Today, the
urgent assertion for Malay dominance of the 1970’s has given way to a more relaxed
multiculturalism at home. However, the forces of globalization have usurped
the role of national institutions in representing our cultural identity on
the world stage.” ( Niranjan Rajah
) Curatorial Hierarchies “In spite of best intentions and the participation of national curators,
the narratives of major global art arenas……are underpinned by the preferences
and prejudices of the host nations. At their worst these exhibitions have used
their national co-curators as mediators in the extraction of information and
resources in a colonial fashion. Indeed, the administration of these expansive
and comprehensive exhibitions, curated on the basis of national sections has
produced what can be described as neo-colonial curatorial hierarchies,
with national curators feeding powerful central selection committees to whose
unperatives regional ‘co-curators’ are obliged to comply.” by Niranjan Rajah ( Extracted
from the "Regionalism in An Era of Global Art" from the Symposium
“Constructing Cultural Identities in the Context of Globalisation” held in Malaysia
in March 2000.) *** " Overtly and covertly, events of May 13 (1969 Malaysia) and the Cultural Congress (1971 Malaysia), and no doubt other related movements, began to shape thinking and practice among artists; they were far too shattering and fundamental to be ignored. Throughout the 1970's, artists began the difficult, painful process of rethinking their positions, and recasting their perceptions of culture, language, race, state/nation and identity. For some , the prospects loomed as intolerable and inhospitable and they chose to migrate; some retreated into temporary or permanent silence; for everyone else, the stakes were too important and consequential not to be involved."

笔记/ Notes
“乡愿这个词含义丰富，孔子所谓乡愿大概是指伪君子，指那些看似忠厚实际没有一点道德原则，只知道媚俗趋时的人。孟子所言大约是说言行不一，当面背后各一套的四方讨好，八面玲珑的人就是乡愿。这种人随波逐流，趋炎媚俗，更多的是指道德败坏的小人。” （百度百科http://zhidao.baidu.com/question/33952713.html
“好人 ？ ”。 “……社会里有坏人並不可怕，因为人有好坏善恶的標准，有了坏人，反而更能让人相信善良的价值。但一个坏人假装是君子好人，他们假装做好事，事实上却是在做坏事，因此“偽君子”乃是最坏的坏人，他们混乱了是非善恶…近代最伟大的女哲学家汉娜说：“邪恶及罪行，只会让我们对罪恶问题感到徬徨难解，而偽善由於已造成善恶不分，它乃是烂到了骨头里的邪恶……中国在极古的年代就已察觉有一种人，居心自私但却貌似恭谨，专讲漂亮话，因此称这种人是“愿”，它的意思是“经过精打细算討人喜欢的虚偽態度”，一个社会里的这种人就叫“乡愿”。”--( 摘自南方朔/星洲日报言路2013-08-21）
南方朔（王杏庆）文凤睿智，神情潇洒笑看人间。识字有限的我最近从他在星洲言路（2013-08-21）的文章里学了两个生字：“乡愿”，恰好也很合适用来形容马来西亚皇城巴生艺术领域里那一小撮专门躲在华团利用组织沽名钓誉同时排挤他人的“画家”。

“你这次代表马来西亚到印尼去，华社里会有人开始排挤你” ，1984年李健省参加耶加达 《第三届亚西安雕塑家论集会》（3rd Asean Symposium in Jarkata ）出发前，曾有一位马华前辈作家慎重提醒我，直到30年后的今天，证实这位前辈没讲错。
华社文化艺术界从此有小部分“世袭会长/主席/院长” 领导人耿耿于怀蓄意挑衅，大肆滥用人治“协会 ”发文告笼络人脉，企图影响媒体去围堵李健省在艺术领域里的话语权。这小撮欲灭异己而尊独大的华社“大师” 们认为“李健省的出头”冲撞到他们的“权威”、“声望”和“商业”等等私人利益。此外也有官僚滥权处处扭曲史实。
时任马来西亚国家艺术馆馆长Tuan Syed Ahmad Jamal（Dato）当头棒喝，“...根据国家艺术馆的记录筛选。你们也曾与李健省同展参赛，根据他的业绩作决定，李健省不代表任何“团体”或“族群”，他代表马来西亚！”，当年作为馆长 Tuan Syed 的专业足以化解任何族群政治和文化人物的干扰与抗拒。】
