New Book - Living Art: Indonesian Artists Engage Politics, Society & History
Congratulations to Professor Emeritus Virginia Hooker (ANU), Dr Elly Kent (UNSW) and Dr Caroline Turner (ANU) on their new book Living Art: Indonesian Artists Engage Politics, Society and History.
Extensively illustrated, Living Art contributes to the acknowledgement and analysis of the diversity of Indonesia’s contemporary art and offers new insights into Indonesian art history, as well as the contemporary art histories of Southeast Asia and Asia more generally.
It is inspired by the conviction of so many of Indonesia’s Independence-era artists that there is continuing interaction between art and everyday life.
