Iswanto Hartono

Description

Iswanto Hartono (1972, Purworejo, Indonesia) is an artist and architect whose interdisciplinary practice focuses on history, memory, globalisation, geopolitical powers, post-colonialism, and racial identity. Iswanto is interested in exploring structure and form, and in researching the alternative uses of a space. Hartono’s work often refers back to Indonesian traditions and parts of the country’s history that have consciously been forgotten, as well as dealing with current-day politics.
