Reality Effects
Curated by Asmudjo Jono Irianto & Rizki A. Zaelani
“Reality Effects” constitute the fundamental problems faced by the “realism” genre in Indonesian art. The curatorial invitation of this exhibition asks the artists to trace back the problems of “reality” in order to re-assess what has previously been called “realism”. The term “realism” does not necessarily have the same meaning with the keyword to this exhibition, or “reality”. “Reality”, however, is an important issue in the way we understand realism, as the two concepts are inextricably linked. The cultural theoretician Raymond Williams explains that realism is one of the problematic cultural terms. Realism, according to Williams, is a difficult word not only because of the intricacy of the disputes in art and philosophy to which its predominant uses refer, but also because the two words on which it seems to depend, real and reality, have a very complicated linguistic history.

Pameran Tunggal Yon Indra “REFLECTIVE MOTIF”
Karya-karya Yon Indra memang khas. Kita bisa melihat karya itu sebagai ‘patung–dinding’ (atau, relief) yang memiliki karakter ekspresi ‘minimalis’, atau sebagai sebuah lukisan yang memiliki persoalan tentang dimensi ruang yang bersifat konkrit. Namun demikian, karya-karya Yon Indra lebih condong memperlihatkan kaitannya dengan perkembangan diskursus seni lukis, ketimbang seni patung. Pengalaman Yon mengerjakan karya-karya tiga dimensional sebelumnya, pada prakteknya, membuka ruang kemungkian diskursus perkembangan seni lukis Indonesia secara lebih luas.
Yon Indra, adalah seorang awak Minang. Yon tetap mengenang ‘tradisi’ lukisan pemandangan yang jadi semacam ikon ekpresi seniman Minang dalam peta sejarah seni rupa Indonesia (sebagaimana dicontohkan seniman besar Wakidi). Namun demikian, bagi Yon, soal gambaran pemandangan yang
