Since 2009, Jakarta Biennale has stood as a biannual and an international <br />
<br />
<br />
contemporary art exhibition. As an institution, Jakarta Biennale was established <br />
<br />
<br />
in 1974 as part of the Jakarta Arts Council visual arts committee’s program. <br />
<br />
<br />
Hence, a foundation named Jakarta Biennale Foundation (Yayasan Jakarta <br />
<br />
<br />
Biennale) was formed afterwards to host the Jakarta Biennale event in 2015. <br />
<br />
<br />
This research focuses on the Jakarta Biennale 2013 SIASAT (JB 2013 SIASAT). <br />
<br />
<br />
JB 2013 SIASAT presented during the transitional process of the organizing <br />
<br />
<br />
institutions, from the Jakarta Art Council to the Jakarta Biennale Foundation. <br />
<br />
<br />
From its artistic sides, JB 2013 SIASAT put emphasize to the community-based <br />
<br />
<br />
art. This research explores two main topics. First, as an exhibition study, this <br />
<br />
<br />
research analyses how “siasat” (tactic) as the curatorial articulation of JB 2013 <br />
<br />
<br />
SIASAT was manifested in the biennale. Second, this study highlights on how the <br />
<br />
<br />
community-based art was presented in the context of JB 2013 SIASAT. The <br />
<br />
<br />
analysis uses Moelyono’s project titled “Art Goes to Village Tactic” in the <br />
<br />
<br />
biennale as the case study. <br />
<br />
<br />
This research employs qualitative method, which puts an exhibition as the object <br />
<br />
<br />
of study. For the analysis purpose, this study chooses the Exhibition Studies as its <br />
<br />
<br />
analytical method. This method examines contemporary art exhibitions through <br />
<br />
<br />
detailed case studies and analysis, as well as dissects the developments of the <br />
<br />
<br />
exhibition’s practical, theoretical, cultural, and socio-political aspects. In <br />
<br />
<br />
conjunction with the author’s role as one of the artist assistant in the <br />
<br />
<br />
implementation of JB 2013 SIASAT, this research uses the ethnographic approach <br />
<br />
<br />
to collect data. The author conducted in-depth observation during the exhibition’s <br />
<br />
<br />
production process and its actual event. <br />
<br />
<br />
The findings show that the concept of “siasat” (tactic) in the JB 2013 SIASAT <br />
<br />
<br />
does not only represent the citizen’s tactics through art projects or the <br />
<br />
<br />
community-based art. The concept of "siasat" also applies as one of the idea on <br />
<br />
<br />
how the biennale operates its management. This research conveys that the <br />
<br />
<br />
statement from the organizers, which indicates the biennale as a "bottom-up" <br />
<br />
<br />
biennale was not translated into the curatorial authorship. The term "bottom-up" <br />
<br />
<br />
biennale refers as a biennale that is initiated by contemporary artists or by a <br />
<br />
<br />
particular group of contemporary artists. <br />
<br />
<br />
In regards to the presentation models of community-based art projects and works, <br />
<br />
<br />
this research suggests three different modes of presentation in the JB 2013 <br />
<br />
<br />
SIASAT. First, presentation is to present the art projects at the specific locations, <br />
<br />
<br />
where the art projects were performed. Second presentation is to display the <br />
<br />
<br />
community-based art projects in the exhibition spaces as ‘extracting’ and <br />
'highlighting' actions. The third model of presentation is an act of presenting the <br />
<br />
<br />
actual community-based art projects at the exhibition space. <br />
<br />
<br />
The research illustrates how the curatorial articulation of JB 2013 was enacted. <br />
<br />
<br />
The analysis reveals that the articulation has influenced how the communitybased <br />
<br />
<br />
art practices presented in a large-scale exhibition. As an art event, the <br />
'extracting' process that was carried out by the biennale's artistic team, had <br />
<br />
<br />
potentially distorted the presentation of community-based art practices. In other <br />
<br />
<br />
words, the 'sophistication' process that became a curatorial statement in the JB <br />
<br />
<br />
2013 SIASAT did not perform on several layers. It applied the other way around <br />
<br />
<br />
instead. |
