In this social media campaign, produced in collaboration with the Museum’s social media team, Grammar’s Alex Bescoby shines the spotlight on three fascinating exhibits from the British Museum’s 2023/4 Exhibition - ‘Burma to Myanmar’.
From influential superpower to repressive regime, Myanmar – also known as Burma – has seen dramatic fluctuations in fortune over the past 1,500 years.
Experiencing decades of civil war and now ruled again by a military dictatorship, Myanmar is an isolated figure on the world stage today, and its story is relatively little known in the West. However, the extraordinary artistic output of its peoples, over more than a millennium of cultural and political change, attests to its pivotal role at the crossroads of Asia.
