MALAYSIA---Art enthusiast Prof Dr Krishna Gopal Rampal celebrates 10 years of collecting Hindu temple art with an expansive exhibition. When questioned recently what the direction of his art collection was, Prof Dr Krishna Gopal Rampal was prompted to reconsider why he collected art.
Realising he needed a theme to tie his collection together, Prof Krishna began to collect and commision paintings of Hindu temples around Malaysia and Singapore. His collection gradually expanded through the years and it now includes temples in South-East Asia. [link]
