ART | JOG | 9

(ART | JOG | 9, June 2nd 2016)

I think we all have favorite place(s) to go to when we're either bored or lonely (lol i hope no). Well, to me, favorite places are those places where I can have some time doing (or seeing) what I love and just me and my thoughts (deep bruh). And by that I think we all have something in common about our favorite one(s); it's somewhere where you get freedom. Freedom to be you. Freedom to think you want to think. Yea, I think that's what favorite place(s) all about.
Well mine happen to be in your arms bookstore, bakery, and museum/art exhibition. In this post, I would like to share some (not some, it's just two actually) art exhibition I've gone since I moved to the city, Yogyakarta. I'll make a separate post of why am I moving to this city and anything 'bout it, especially my activities. Too much tasks and tests prevailing my mind so I have to keep focus on college thingy (cry).

I always have a thing for museum and any art exhibition. I sometimes imagine to visit all museums and art exhibition in the world (i really did imagine this kind of stuffs, lol). And I bet thats impossible since it will cost A LOT and I don't know many of the artists exhibiting there.
I love art. I love paintings. I love how it can speaks without saying a word (personification detected).
I love silence, but since not all museum/art exhibition are quiet, I'd rather go with the word 'peaceful' than silence. And museum & art exhibition is pretty much a right combination of all I asked.

 Mandiri ART | JOG | 9

ART JOG is an art exhibition which has already exhibited nine times annually since 2008. Each year they have different themes and for ART JOG 9 they came up with the Universal Influence theme. The theme means: "The universal culture came from the accumulation of historical events," said Heri Pemad, Artjog Director. There are 97 works exhibited there, such as paintings, photographs, sculpture, etc. I enjoy being there. These works are all creative and great. I can't wait for the upcoming ART JOG (which is next year ugh).

Words to keep you motivated (as if)

THE BEAUTY OF RELATIVITY by GALAM ZULKIFLI
Beauty is the most high-selling commodity for the media industry. The media provides a single definition of beauty as well as deciding what is proper for a woman. Beauty is not singular, it is relative.


Affandi Alive!
(Taken: August 18th, 2016)

Affandi Alive is an art exhibiton at Lippo Plaza Jogja which I visited when I'm wandering alone on August 18th, 2016. I was going to buy a new charger because the old one was broken and then I saw the exhibition. It was super quiet there maybe it's because there's Affandi Museum here in Jogja and people prefer going there to see all the Affandi's work. Here's the photos I took by my phone camera (because I was just got home from college, no preparation wkwk)




Serumpun Bambu, 1965.

My Wife and Me, 1950.

So that's all I can share. There so so so many museum or art exhibition out there but I only had visited these two, I hope I can have the opportunity some time to exploring the whole art things without having to worry about grades (lol). See ya on next 'exploration' post(s)!
