Abstract

Bandung thrives as a city deeply entrenched in its artistic progression, boasting a vibrant array of art institutions, galleries, collectives, and accolades in the axis of Indonesian contemporary art. Despite this flourishing landscape, the divergence of contemporary art from conventional aesthetics poses challenges in garnering public appreciation. Since the early 2000s, Bandung’s contemporary art scene has witnessed a proliferation of innovative expressions influenced by recent aesthetic philosophies, notably postmodernism, and characterized by diverse aesthetic idioms. However, despite these progressive strides, a notable gap persists between contemporary art in Bandung and its local community. This study utilizes qualitative methodologies, including Focus Group Discussions (FGD) and visual analysis, to probe the aesthetic nuances within Bandung’s contemporary art milieu. FGD sessions delve into aesthetic dialogues, institutional dynamics, and community perceptions, while visual analysis deciphers cultural symbols within socio-political contexts. The findings illuminate prevalent themes of parody, pastiche, kitsch, and cultural fusion, indicative of a profound exploration of Indonesian identity amidst the currents of globalization. Bandung young contemporary artists adeptly interweave traditional values with contemporary themes, infusing their works with tradition, religion, and locality elements. While defying rigid categorization, these creations unveil intriguing intersections deserving further scholarly inquiry. This research underscores Bandung’s contemporary art scene as a complex and diverse tapestry shaped by historical, political, and social dynamics. It emphasizes the importance of discursive meaning and social processes within the artistic medium, shedding light on the intricate interplay between artistic innovation and socio-cultural contexts within Bandung’s vibrant art landscape.
解开美学挂毯:绘制万隆当代青年艺术家的艺术风格图
万隆是一座在艺术发展中根深蒂固的城市,在印尼当代艺术的轴心上拥有一系列充满活力的艺术机构、画廊、集体和荣誉。尽管如此,当代艺术与传统美学的背道而驰也给公众的欣赏带来了挑战。自 21 世纪初以来,万隆的当代艺术舞台上涌现出了大量受近代美学哲学(尤其是后现代主义)影响的创新表现形式,并呈现出多样化的美学特征。然而,尽管取得了这些进步,万隆当代艺术与当地社区之间仍然存在着明显的差距。本研究采用定性方法,包括焦点小组讨论(FGD)和视觉分析,探究万隆当代艺术环境中的美学细微差别。焦点小组讨论深入探讨了美学对话、机构动态和社区观念,而视觉分析则解读了社会政治背景下的文化符号。研究结果揭示了戏仿、模仿、媚俗和文化融合等普遍主题,表明了在全球化潮流中对印尼身份的深刻探索。万隆当代青年艺术家善于将传统价值观与当代主题交织在一起,在作品中注入传统、宗教和地方元素。这些创作在挑战严格分类的同时,也揭示了值得学术界进一步探究的有趣交集。这项研究强调,万隆的当代艺术场景是由历史、政治和社会动态所形成的复杂而多样的织锦。研究强调了艺术媒介中话语意义和社会过程的重要性,揭示了万隆充满活力的艺术景观中艺术创新与社会文化背景之间错综复杂的相互作用。
