The chaos of traffic, social imbalance, city volume, and consumerism.
The Capital is going to be moved to Kalimantan? That’s going to be difficult. This country hasn’t the money for it, making it hard to be realized even in the next 9 or 10 years,” said reigning Governor Fauzi Bowo in an informal chat on the capital city’s chaotic condition at the North Art Space (NAS) Gallery in Ancol.
The mentioned current condition of Jakarta was what was reflected by most participants of the 2010 Jakarta Art Award competition, with the theme “Reflection of Megacities”, with the city of Jakarta as the subjecy matter. The chaos of traffic, social imbalance, city volume, consumerism, to the ignorant characteristic of Jakartans; all showed in various dynamics.
Held since 2006, the Jakarta Art Award is a two-yearly painting art competition. The competition is the subsequence of the Golden Palette Award competition pioneered by the ancol Art Market and the Provincial Government of DKI Jakarta; limited by participants from Jakarta, Bogor, Depok, Tangerang, and Bekasi. Fauzi Bowo was still in the Vice Governor position at the first event.
In order to widespread the competition, the Golden Palette Award transformed to the Jakarta Art Award with participations opened for nation-wide painters. Lately the 2010 Jakarta Wart Award has been sounded to international level, by involving many participants from various foreign countries.
Kim So-young, Lee Min- Ju, Halley Cheng, Victor Angelo, are a line of international participant names that contributed in the 2010 Jakarta Art Award. And if it is true what was said by Budi Karya Sumadi, the Chief Director of PT Pembangunan Jaya Ancol, that this event is the first ever international competition that is held in Indonesia, this comes as quite a pride to us.
Came as the 2010 Jakarta Art Award winner is Putu Wirantawan at first place, with his work “The Wandering Soul III”. Next is Agung “Tato” Suryanto with his work “City of Tomorrow”, and Imam Abdillah with “Dimensi Perburuan” (The Hunting Dimension) at second, and Aditya Novali with “(My) Comfort Zone” and Angga Sukma Permana with “Lie of Life” at third.
Most of the works displayed at the NAS Gallery criticized the current condition of Jakarta. Hopefully they can all be aspired as inputs to build a much more organized Jakarta.
