Description
Gudskul Collective Studies is a programme
created by Gudskul Ekosistem. During
this two-year programme, the collectives
shared and exchanged their knowledge and
experiences about economic sustainability,
local practices and local traditions in
contemporary art. They worked on building
a Lumbung, a traditional Indonesian
storage system used by farmers. A
Lumbung collects surplus crops after
harvest for the whole community to use
during tough times, not just for individual
needs. This idea of a Lumbung represents
how collectives can support each other
by pooling their resources, like materials,
programmes and people.
The sixth batch of this programme,
in partnership with de Appel Curatorial
Programme and Sandberg Instituut in
Amsterdam, has created a collective of
collectives called Sixpack, including five
participating art collectives from different
parts of Indonesia: Indonesia Art Movement
(Jayapura), Makmur Djaja (Jakarta),
Pasir Putih (Lombok), Riwanua (Makassar)
and Ruang SimpaSio (Larantuka).
