About Kin Maung

  • Kin Maung (Bank) (???????? [k??`? mà??]; 1910 – 20 December 1983) was a Burmese painter and sponsor of the arts who was influential in the art world of Mandalay, Myanmar.
  • More importantly, however, he was the major force for the development of a modernistic movement in painting in Burma, which began in the early 1960s. In 1952, Kin Maung became a bank manager, and thus he is often referred to as Kin Maung (Bank) to differentiate him from another Burmese painter Kin Maung (Yangon).
  • The names of both Kin Maung (Bank) and Kin Maung (Yangon) are sometimes spelled as "Khin Maung".
