Solo Exhibition

Semarak 30 Semar
by F. Widayanto

From June 6 until June 12
10 am - 8 pm

[A Building]

Feature 30 statues and 19 reliefs of the grandfatherly pot-bellied figure. In the hands and imagination of master potter F. Widayanto, Semar, the wisest character in Javanese mythology, could be anything. Anything that in the end boils down to the ancient wisdom of who holds the highest power of all: The people.

"Semar, in my mind, existed and was real and alive throughout time, and he existed for all nations and cultures," he says. Semar appears as a surrealist painter in Dali Mania. He becomes an Egyptian king in King Izmy, and a Greek god in Zeus Mar. The usually serene image of Semar gives way to a certain smugness in Belly Dragon, or pensiveness in Moody Blue.

But it was not an easy task to develop these reinterpretations of the mythical figure who always shows up last in wayang puppet performances, offering words of wisdom. The artist says it took him 13 years to grasp the essence of this character.[The Jakarta Post,Jakarta]
