At a glance, this Redza Piyadasa silkscreen collage of a Straits Chinese terraced residence frontage resembles the one sold at the Henry Butcher June 30, 2019, auction for a premium of RM61,600. It’s a different version from the same image used with slightly different colour schemes on the front pillar balustrades, the eaves, the doric columns and the triple louvred-window ensemble upstairs. It has a short frontage setback from the streetline but which has space only for conventional two-wheelers. It has the Baroque rojak of a foldable iron grille gate grafted as the main door – certainly, not in any way a concession to aesthetic, but the changing security demands of later years of the 20th century. Artist, art-critic and historian Redza Piyadasa won the Major Prize in the Malaysian Landscape competition in 1974, and the Minor Award (jointly with Lee Kian Seng) in the 1979 Salon Malaysia. In 1998, he was awarded the Prince Claus Award, and in 2001, the National Art Gallery, honoured him with a Retrospective. He also won the Australian Cultural Award in 1987 and the Japan Foundation travel grant in 1992. He was also a co-founder of the Five Arts Centre in 1983. In 1991, he was artist-in-residence at the Canberra Institute of Art. Piyadasa graduated with a MFA from the University of Hawaii, Honolulu (1977) and a BFA from the Hornsey College of Art, London (1967). He graduated from the Malayan Teachers College, Brinsford Lodge, Wolverhampton, Britain in 1959, and the Specialist Teachers Training College, Kuala Lumpur, in 1962.
