Indonesian art is as diverse and dynamic as the extraordinary cultures that flourish across the archipelago, with many artists fusing traditional with new techniques.

How does the arts ecosystem involve galleries and museums in the post-pandemic era? And how does contemporary Indonesian art identify in the midst of a cosmopolitan and cross-border art climate?
