This ambitious exhibition of 18 artists is revealing the specificity of contemporary art practice in Indonesia in its variety from Post-reformation (mid-1990's) to Post-market (the most recent generation).
Works exhibited are not minimal, they don’t follow the trends of international art in Los Angeles, New York or Berlin, they are deeply rooted in the Indonesian psyché, with most of the artists coming from 2 vibrant art scenes in Indonesia: Yogyakarta and Bandung. They have a distinct flavour, and whisper a different voice in this globalized art world.
