Lot description

Angki Purbandono, a member of the contemporary photography group Ruang MES56, is best known for his Alternative Conceptual Photography using scanographic images done without the use of cameras. Calvin Tan, curator of Kissing The Method, writes in the catalogue: “Angki’s scanner images therefore allow the viewer to comprehend the expressiveness and tactile qualities of these everyday objects that one often takes for granted. The even sharpness which the scanner makes possible has resulted in a heightened perception of detail and vividness of colour.” Angki studied in the Modern School of Design, Yogyakarta, in 1993-1994, and furthered his studies at the Indonesian Institute of Art, Yogyakarta, in 1994-1999. He received the Asian Artist Fellowship from the National Museum of Contemporary Art, South Korea, at the Changdong Art Studio in 2005-2006. He had solos in Kuala Lumpur (Kissing The Methods, Richard Koh Fine Art, 2009), Singapore, Hong Kong and Bali, Indonesia. He was included in the Space And Shadows Contemporary Art From Southeast Asia exhibition at the Haus World Cultural House in Berlin in 2005.
