English Learning
Contemporary Worlds: Indonesia is the first major exhibition in Australia to explore the myriad practices of contemporary Indonesian artists working in turbulent post-Reformasi Indonesia: from the fall of Suharto in 1998 to the present day. Produced in collaboration with the Modern Language Teachers Association of the ACT, our Indonesian Language and Visual Arts Resource invites discussion around Indonesian identity, history, landscape and politics.
