In the exhibition The Fountain of Lamneth, seven artists explore experimental methodologies in expressing and showcasing art. The lyrics and architectural form of the song The Fountain of Lamneth by rock music group Rush, from the album Caress of Steel 1975 are freely interpreted. The Fountain of Lamneth is often interpreted as a journey of a person, faced with various obstacles throughout his life; starting from his childhood till death. Through this project, the themes of The Fountain of Lamneth are borrowed as analogies to observe a current inclination in contemporary Indonesian art practice that leads to the excavation of ethereal ideas such as darkness, absurdity, mysticism, immortality, illusionary truth, the conscious mind. The artists involved in this project have shown mature conceptions through their works and how they relate to the song. Each artist elaborates on a section from the main song: Andry Mochamad – Didacts and Narpets; Bagus A. Pandega – In the Valley; Dita Gambiro – Panacea; Henrycus Napitsunargo – Bacchus Plateua; Prilla Tania – The Fountain; Syagini Ratnawulan – No One at the Bridge; RE Hartanto – Overall Impression of The Fountain of Lamneth. The exhibition is curated by Aminudin Siregar. | |
