What are the highlights of previous exhibitions in Indonesia?
Exhibitions in Jakarta gaining popularity as we exhibit every year with the help of Indian embassy and Indian cultural centre in Jakarta.
We had printed the email addresses and cell phone number each artist on the price tags of each painting in the exhibition.
WE are extremely happy to tell you that many art buyers from abroad have directly contacted our artists who participated in jakarta exhibition and bought their paintings too.
With our publicity in various media and continuos help from Indian Embassy and Indian cultural centre in Indonesia, we have created a market for Indian art which was non-exixtent in Indonesia.All art gallery owners and art buyers in Indonesia come in thousands to see our exhibition and many of our artists have been contacted directly by art buyers in Indonesia and other countries.
As a policy we hold exhibition in most famous cultural centre of Indonesia which is Taman Ismail marzuki which is biggest centre for Art / theatre / dance / films etc.
1) Every year our exhibition is inaugurated by H.E.Indian Ambassador of India and a grand party is thrown every year by Indian Cultural centre in jakarta for the opening day of the exhibition.
2)We have sold 78 paintings so far in our exhibitions in Indonesia and all artists' money has been paid (except one artist)THE MOST IMPORTANT HIGHLIGHT OF THIS YEAR IS THAT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN LAST 5 YEARS OUR ARTISTS HAVE BEEN CONTACTED BY ART BUYERS ABROAD AND THEY ACTUALLY PURCHSED PAINTINGS FROM OUR ARTISTS WITHOUt ANY COMISSION TO ANYONE INCLUDING US.
3) More than 4000 art lovers visited our exhbn in 2007 and more than 800 art lovers actually signed into our guestbook
4) Massive media publicity was done in order to invite attention of art lovers in jakarta-Major Newspapers and websites as well as magazines fully projected our exhibition in jakarta.
5 )We are never responsible for any damage or loss of any artworks in our exhibition abroad but there has not been a single case of any loss of artworks in last previous 4 years.80% artworks have been sent to artists and remaining 20 % artworks are still in Jakarta with art dealers which ,if not sold, will be brought back next year and will be sent to respective artists by courier. We keep all unsold artworks after the exhibition in Jakarta with art dealers for one more year for sale through agents. Artists will have tp pay 30% comission all sales conducted after the exhibition.Those artists who want their artworks back immediately after the exhibition should inform us in writing so that we can bring back artworks after the exhibition while coming back to India.
6)Many highly brilliant but financially poor artists are included in the exhibition without any contributions from them.Since it's inception,Indian Artists Network has always promoted financially weaker artists who are highly creative. All such artists if selected need to do donate one high quality work to us in order to cover the cost of the exhibition.This too after passing through strict selection criterion.
PLEASE DO NOT SEND YOUR PAINTINGS AS DONATION DIRECTLY .We do not intend to collect artworks just because artists are ready to donate it to us.ONLY HIGH QUALITY ARTWORKS WILL BE SELECTED AND THEN ACCEPTED AFTER INFORMING THE SELECTED ARTISTS.
