Made Wianta
Complementing Pierre Poretti's evocative photographs of this unique event are essays by renowned scholar of Indonesian art Marc Bollansee and prominent Asian curator and art critic Apinan Poshyananda. Bollansee details the growth of Made Wianta's concern for peace, his inspiration and influences, the background to Art and Peace Performance, and the special events of December 10, 1999, while Poshyananda examines the place of the Art and Peace Performance in the international and Indonesian contemporary art scene. Continuing the peace messages of Art and Peace Performance are Wianta's Peace Installations and Wave Paintings. These later works bear testimony to Wianta's prolific creativity for he is one of the few artists to explore themes through diverse genres such as painting, installation and performance art. Art and Peace Performance represents a significant achievement in Wianta's aesthetic journey and will live on in Indonesia as perhaps one of the largest community-based performance artworks dedicated to peace and non-violence.

The Venice Biennale and the Asia-Pacific in the Global Art World
This monograph uses the national pavilions of the Venice Biennale as a vehicle to examine the development of international contemporary art trends within the Asia-Pacific region, including Australia, Japan and Korea and 16 additional national entities who have had less continuous participation in this global art event. Analysing both the spatial and visual representation of contemporary art presented at the Venice Biennale and incorporating the politics behind national selections, this monograph provides insights into a range of important elements of the global art industry. Areas analysed include national cultural trends and strategies, the inversion of the peripheral to the centre stage of the Biennale, geopolitics in gaining exhibition space at the Venice Biennale, curatorial practices for contemporary art presentation and artistic trends that seek to deal with major economic, cultural, religious and environmental issues emerging from non-European art centres. This monograph will be of interest to scholars in art history, museum studies and Asia-Pacific cultural history.
