How do Indonesian artists view and use their own artistic traditions? Indeed, what exactly are these traditions? Also, we may ask, how important is there particular ethnic origin? Is it still useful to think of Indonesian painting in terms of a contrast or conflict between art made in Jogja or Bandung? Although these are artists distinguished above all by strong personal visions, this exhibition offers a chance to think about such issues. “Looking at the past, making for the future” is the third exhibition in a series examining Indonesian painting today we include new paintings by four important but very different artists from Bandung and Jogja: Jumaldi Alfi, Ivan Sagita, Srihardi & Sunaryo. Also catch “Elsewhere”, a solo exhibition by Filipino artist Arturo Sanchez Jr. showcasing eight paintings that are either on or include mirrors. Exhibitions open on 13 September, and runs until 20 October 2013.
