THE INSIGHT

Art:1

Art: 1 New Museum is a museum located in Jakarta, Indonesia. Initially, this museum was a private art gallery called Mon Décor, founded by Martha Gunawan in 1983. It was later renamed Art: 1 New Museum in 2009. The museum was officially inaugurated by the Governor of DKI Jakarta, Fauzi Bowo, in 2011.

Art: 1 is a frame of reference. The meaning of " art for everyone " refers to art with magnitude, i.e. art that possesses values, which are considered important by the public. It is within this frame of reference that art is believed to be a cultural activity, as a basis of public involvement in the establishment of art values.

Art: 1, as a framework, forms the foundation of all activities held at Art: 1 as an " art institution". In its totality, Art: 1's orientation is to present exhibitions, because exhibitions are sources of the aforementioned Change discourses, that can continuously offer new possibilities in our process of discovery. This orientation is present in Art: 1's two main components: as a museum that follows a new museum concept in Art: 1 New Museum ; and as an art space through Art Space : 1 .
