Biennale Jogja XII Equator #2 Part 1 : A Saturday Night with Biennale Jogja

Alright, so this is a late post for what I had been doing with my friends on last Saturday night. There is this event for fine arts artist from Indonesia and also abroad, this year from Arabian Peninsula countries, to show their work, their art pieces. The event is called Biennale Jogja XII Equator #2. The event started from November 16 2013 until January  6 2014. Here are the poster of Biennale Jogja.

This is the first time I visited the event. I don't know why but I feel so excited! I went to Taman Budaya Yogyakarta around 7 p.m. with some of  my friends. We are amazed by the entrance wall of Biennale Jogja venue in concert hall ground floor of TBY. Who doesn't love a big wall with an interesting drawing. You know exactly what happened after that, say CHEESE!. :D

After being so narcissist, we went inside and fill the guest book. There is a guide book available in the reception desk, you could bought it just only 25,000 rupiah. In this venue there are some art work displayed attractively. The plants which planted in the trunk of banana trees, a horse shoes in the ceilings. About the horse shoes, we looked for a while to determine which direction they ran to, we thought they ran in a horse race or something like that. 

You could find a video in one of the corner of this venue. The video is about the making of an art work by Egyptian artist (find the art work at Jogja National Museum), you could sit and watch the video. On the left wall there is this photo, cool one! While on the right side of the wall there is a fine art work catalogs from many exhibition done in the Arab also in other countries.

One of  the catalog, this is my friend's favorite

You could find some lockers, an art work by Indonesian artist called Moving Numbers/2+2=5. There are only some of the lockers set in TBY, the rest is spread in other main venue of Biennale Jogja. So you should visit all the venue to finish the locker quest. :) After looking around for almost an hour, we decided to grab some food near alun-alun. That's the end of our Saturday night at Biennale Jogja. Thanks for visiting my blog. See you on other venues! :) Au revoir!
