A MESSAGE FROM
Sidharta Auctioneer

Dear Art Enthusiasts and Lovers,

The Indonesian art space has evolved dynamically with a growing number of young Indonesian
artists coming into prominence and gaining popularity. Indeed, this edition of ArtFordable Auction
provides you all with the scent and splash of the work of Indonesian young artists as well as
emerging artists.

It is always our commitment, through ArtFordable Auctions, to facilitate the appreciation of visual art
amongst art enthusiasts and lovers by bringing a diverse range of art work and to encourage a better
understanding of Indonesian artists in particular. This ArtFordable catalog highlights three different
but seamless sections, each featuring its own uniqueness. The paintings of the late artists might be
completely disassociated from the aspirations and trends of the younger artists who appeal to more
diverse art preferences. We also have a few limited edition photography limited prints by Atreyu
Moniaga which are both thought provoking and intellectually intriguing. As you browse through our
selections for this auction, we hope you will get a sense of the vibrancy of the work of our emerging
and young artists’ creations.

It is our wish that these young artists can inspire more young people in Indonesia to continue to
pursue their talents and interests. In that spirit, 1% of the hammer price of each art work auctioned at
this ArtFordable Auction will be donated to Sekolah Abdi Kasih Bangsa in Kupang, NTT. This school
is managed by Yayasan Pelita Kasih Bangsa to provide a formal education for those who are
financially challenging but have academic potential.

Wish you enjoy the selections of our ArtFordable Auction and share the joy. Shall you have any
inquires, we are more than happy to assist. Happy bidding from home through our live online &
direct bidding facilities.

Syanda Kunto-Prabowo
CEO & Co-Founder
