Artists Ask What Happens When Jakarta Collapses In on Itself

https://jakartaglobe.id/culture/artists … -on-itself

The Jakarta History Museum in Kota Tua is currently hosting -2m: Voices From (Below) the Sea, a contemporary art exhibition that explores the spatial, social and ecological changes currently taking place along the Jakarta coast, the area's dynamic history, and the challenges the city and its residents face into the future.

The exhibition is the first public showing of an ongoing collaboration between the Rujak Center for Urban Studies and a diffuse collection of local and foreign artists and communities (of which I am one). It is based on a yearly walking tour across the Jakarta coastline, the second of which was undertaken over 16 days in late February and early March by many of the exhibiting artists.

Brain art .. in a really nice hotel

There's a chess tournament in Jogjakarta (one of my favourite towns in Indonesia) at the moment. If chess is your thing, I can seriously recommend staying at the hotel inna (from personal experience).

It should be mentioned that the Bali Arts Festival is now in full swing.  This will be going on until July 14.

The national art gallery is open - It's a wonderful place so I can strongly recommend a visit when you have a moment.
It's opposite Gambir station in Jakarta.
