Steve McCurry exhibition opens in Malaysia

Iconic photographer Islamic Arts Museum in Kuala Lumpur.

The 80 large format images document the more candid, every day images of Islamic believers such as a foodstall holder reading the Qur’an and a brickmaker at prayer during a short break from production. McCurry has always been interested in people and the images here are designed to show Muslim people as individuals going about their lives.

On January 7 the public was treated to the Exhibition Launch and Public Talk with McCurry and on January 8 he held a Photographic Workshop with 50 students imparting some of the tips he’s learned in the past 30 years.
