Mapping Invisible Cities II – Jakarta Biennale 09
I just received an email from Henri Ismail inviting our group who did the Mapping Invisible Cities project with Peter Bialobrzeski for Mapping Invisible Cities II, an exhibition to be opened in time for the Jakarta Biennale 2009 under the Zone of Understanding, one of three platforms.
The Jakarta Biennale is an art exhibition held every two years in Jakarta, Indonesia. It was titled before as the Indonesian Painting Grand Exhibition, held since 1968. In 1982, the title of Fine Art Biennale was introduced. The Biennale is held as a responsibility sign of the artists to the society and is aim for the enhancement of appreciation toward art. Jakarta Biennale is organized by The Jakarta Art Council and The Governor of Jakarta as the patron. Jakarta Biennale 09 is the first of its international character that invites outstanding artists from abroad.
This is a very good opportunity but the catch is, the work must follow a specific requirement and the schedule too tight as the project must be submitted before 10 February! It’s really very tempting and a bit challenging as the subject now is the photographer himself!
I’m still planning how I will conceptualize this one.
