BARU, BARU.

BARU, BARU., a group exhibition with works dating from 1981-2023 that were made by way of a long and meandering search, entanglements between ones’ curiosities and concerns, and questions about the possibilities and reach of art, artworks, and the role of art workers as citizens, as part of societies, and within humanity. BARU, BARU. is also haunted by questions of class, political insight, the systematic numbing of intellectuals, and a list of other anxieties that is carried the condemnation: ‘History repeats itself. First as tragedy, then as farce.’

BARU, BARU. will also be showing in other cities. Please wait for our updates!

Tidak berarti tidak…

“A. S. Budiono (Liem Bian Tjong, 1932-2008) pernah menjelaskan kepada temannya bahwa, “Lukisan abstrak tidak berarti tidak mengandung masalah sosial. Masalah itu sudah terserak ke jiwa dan itu terekspresikan dalam bentuk-bentuk abstrak.” Pameran duo ini menampilkan karya-karya lukis Bambang Bujono dari 1970an dan Jeroen Tan Markaban dari satu dekade terakhir. Walaupun akrab dengan seni lukis sejak usia dini, kedua pelukis ini menjalani hidup dengan profesi lain; sebagai wartawan seni rupa dan dalam bidang desain ruang dalam.”
