On Sunday, Galeri Puteh will be opening Sesat Di Kuala Lumpur: Lagunya Begini, Tampaknya Begitu, an exhibition showcasing nearly 60 artists inspired by legendary Malaysian singer, songwriter, and actor Datuk M. Nasir.

Running through the month of June, the exhibit features a multi-generational line-up including Rafiee Ghani, Ahmad Fuad Osman, Masnoor Ramli, Abdullah Jones, Samsuddin Wahab, Stephen Menon, Najib Bamadhaj, Shafiq Nordin, Hisyamuddin Abdullah, Kide Baharudin, Ika Sharom, Mustaffa Ahmad Hidzir (aka Tapa Otai) and others.

The exhibition features a range of mediums, including paintings, mixed media art, wall installations, and photographs.

Inspired by M. Nasir's extensive music and arts legacy, the exhibition also references his song from the 1986 cult classic movie Kembara Seniman Jalanan.

An opening reception will be held this Sunday at 2pm, with the public invited to check out a gallery programme that might offer a surprise or two when it comes to music, art and poetry.
