Aku Diponegoro: A Prince for All Seasons

by Ken Jenie

 

The exhibition from Raden Saleh to the present revisits the extraordinary story of Diponegoro (1785-1855), as presented through the eyes of classical painters, contemporary artists as well as the general public. The exhibition aims to encourage a deeper understanding of cultural and commemorative memory, allowing the Indonesian public to build a narrative picture of the past and therefore develop a certain image and identity for themselves.

Curators:
Dr. Wener Kraus
Jim Supangkat
Dr. Peter Carey

The exhibition will run from 6 February until 8 March 2015.
