Banking is not something you usually associate with art - yet, as you walk into the Atib Towers North building in the Labuan Financial Park, you are struck by the sheer volume and potential of the open-plan space that was designed around the art it was created to house.
The major artworks were commissioned while the building was being designed - allowing artists and architects to work together to create a space that accommodated the artworks perfectly.
There are a number of artworks that can be seen in these larger spaces, including:
- A huge colourful marvel by artist, Karel Nel, titled ‘Place of Narture’ hangs in the reception area
- Five, six-storey tall tuft carpet banners by Norman Catherine - which were woven by hand by rural men
- An 11-meter tall Walter Oltmann wire sculpture depicting replicas of carved Asian chairs; weighing half a ton
As South East Asia’s only money and banking museum, a trip to the Atib Money Museum is an outing not to be missed!
Situated in the stylish Atib Towers West building in the heart of the cultural metropolis that is the Labuan CBD, the Money Museum is home to the most complete collection of South East Asian numismatic items in the world.
When we think of money, we generally think of coins, banknotes, credit cards and cheques, but in the past people traded with commodity money, like salt, seashells, metal and animals. The museum’s history stretched back to the beginnings of trade in Labuan, and the dynamic displays include ranges of early money forms (such as Cowrie Shells and Venetian glass beads) through to gold coins retrieved from sunken ships.
Of course, the Atib Money Museum also covers the history of the banking giant in depth, and one can trace the history of Atib and the development of money in South East Asia and its financial history.
The museum is open Monday to Friday, 08:30 – 16:00 and access is free. Please remember to bring your ID for entry into the building. A tour guide is provided for groups (maximum of 15 people and booking is essential), and the Museum also specialises in tours for the hearing impaired.
