Highlights of the Exhibition



For year 2009, you may participate in our exhibition or if you can not afford the contribution fees, you can put your artwork in full page in our catalogues by paying just Rs.7000.Your full A-4 size page will have one of your artworks image and your full contact details. Korean art buyers contacted all our artists who participated in our Jakarta exhibition through our catalogues and bought more than 70 paintings directly from artists.Catalogues will be printed only if there are enough paid entries to cover the cost of catalogues. Korean art buyers contacted our artists after getting all contact details from our catalogues.



Selected Artists contributing and participating in the exhibition will be put into catalogues free of charge.



Catalogues is the best option for sculptors / ceramic artists / Installations artists as it is expensive to take these heavy objects abroad

1)All artists complete contact details will be printed on price tags of paintings during the exhibition. We have sold more than 100 paintings so far in our exhibitions and in 2008 we have sold 16 paintings and full amount has been paid to all artists.Many artists have requested us to keep their paintings in Jakarta which will be sold through art dealers/art galleries/auction houses in Jakarta who take 35% comission on sales.



2) All art buyers are encouraged to directly contact you from exhibition hall itself



3)If paintings are sold,100% amount goes to respective artists without any deductions-No commission to anyone including us.



4)Full support of Indian Embassy and Indian cultural centre in Jakarta who every year arrange a grand opening ceremony and call all important VIPs and Indonesian and Indian business leaders. This year a grand dance program and a lavish dinner party was arranged for us by Indian Embassy and JNICC. We are deeply thankful to JNICC and Indian Embassy who encourage us every year.



5) Massive Publicity was in various media.



A) Our exhibition was given one full page in Monthly program bulletin by TIM and 2000 were distributed to their regular mailing list. Rest of 8000 pamphlets were distributed throughout the city from various places.

B) Newsletter of Indian cultural centre published our exhibition news in their monthly issue

These websites may have removed our exhibition from their websites but we have taken all prints of those items if anyone wants to see them.

D) Thousands of emails were sent to all art lovers , friends and cultural related personalities

6) Because of our communication efforts, majority of 15 Indian artists went to Olympic art events during Olympics games in Beijing in China. Four Indonesian and one Brirish artists also got selected for Olympics because of us.Olympics Art organizing committee has thanked us for our efforts by email and had even invited us to China and sent us Visa too but I could not go because of exhibition in Jakarta



Many Indian artists have applied for Switzerland residency program and Asian paintings award by Sovereign foundation in Hongkong.Wishing our artist all the best.



7)This is a Not-for-profit activity and selling paintings is not our goal even though we try hard for it. Connecting artists with art buyers and art galleries abroad is our MAIN GOAL. Those artists who are looking for SALE ONLY need not apply for the exhibition as they may get frustrated if there is no sale.

In 2007 more than 70 paintings were bought by Korean art buyers directly from artists who participated in our Jakarta exhibition.There was no commission paid to anyone including us. All artists directly dealt with Korean art buyers themselves.Korean art buyers contacted our artists after getting all contact details from our catalogues.

10) We had successfully participated in Art Singapore in 2007 and Art expo Malaysia in 2009.Please ask us about them if you are serious about participating there.



11) I am returning from Jakarta in Feb.2009 and will return all artists paintings which were not sold during exhibition in 2008 except those artists who have not paid their contributions.
