One of the instalation works in Kultursinema #5: Passion of The Perfect Body<\/p><\/div>\n
On its fourth day, there were visitors from various backgrounds. Each of the visitors expressed their impressions frequently while I accompany them around the exhibition area. They told me about what their parents told them about the Ganefo, and they also asked about the works displayed in the room.<\/p>\n
One of the visitors, Monica Retno, told me what her parents had said about Ganefo. As a grand event celebrated by citizens of Jakarta, there were also stories of how some citizens that were evicted from their homes for the construction of the sports center moved wholeheartedly to Tebet. They even named the streets there with Ganefo I, II, III, and so on, before the names were changed into Tebet Dalam and others.<\/p>\n
Different opinions came from other visitors, such as Surtiman and Takashi Makino. On his visit, Surtiman asked about the purpose of the theme, and he also inquired on the amount of works displayed. Similar questions were conveyed by Takashi Makino, a visual artist who were invited to perform at one of the events in ARKIPEL 2018.<\/p>\n
On his visit, Makino asked about the works displayed, such as, why there were two videos of different sports event that occurred in different times (Ganefo 1963 and ASIAN Games 2018)? Besides asking about the content of the exhibition, he also told me about the Tokyo Olympics that were held almost in the same year as Ganefo. He also recounted few unpleasant occurrences during the Tokyo Olympics, such as how important historical buildings were sacrificed for the development of the grand event.<\/p>\n

Between our conversations, I also told him the euphoria of the citizens of Jakarta during Ganefo that was recounted to me by Monica Retno. Makino questioned whether they did not protest when they were evicted for the sake of Ganefo\u2019s infrastructural development? I continued Monica\u2019s story, that they welcomed the government\u2019s act, even they named the streets where they lived with Ganefo I, II, III, and so on.<\/p>\n
After interacting with visitors, I also got to talk with one of the Forum Lenteng team who was involved in the process of making the Kultursinema #5 exhibition, Afrian Purnama. He told me about the research process, and the technical matters on the making of the works displayed in the exhibition. He also explained why they displayed many things outside the aspect of cinema, but the material works, such as music box and how it correlated with the notion of expanded cinema. He also recounted how hard it was to search for the source material, but over the time, they got the sources they needed. Even the Kultursinema #5 exhibition theme received some archives of Ganefo from abroad, though unfortunately they could not display it in this event.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_tab][\/vc_tabs][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
