Entering the month of December in conclusion of 2018, we present our fourth Sidharta Auctioneer - Alam Sutera Artfordable Auction, which has almost become our annual collaboration with Alam Sutera Realty. As a leading residential developer in Indonesia, Alam Sutera understands and art and culture is an integral part of the lifestyle of its residents. The artworks that we offer are suitable for most of the residents who want to start making art part of their life, especially in terms of quality and price range.

It has become a “tradition” that the Sidharta Auctioneer - Alam Sutera Artfordable Auction celebrates diversity and dynamism. We present a variety of artworks ranging from newcomers and emerging artists such as Anni Kholilah, Astro, Atmi Kristiadewi, Bonchu Bondho T., Brahmbudi Panoedi and Edi Tonang. There are also selections from Erica Hestu Wahyuni, Faizal, Faizin, Gung Anom, Gunawan Bagea, J.B. Iwan Sulistyo, Jing Chuang Long, Praponco Suprapto, Ketut Sugantika, Made Suraja, and Untung Wahono, whose works quite regularly appear in our Artfordable Auctions, but in this auction there a number of paintings of note, among others Bonny Setiawan’s Dua Sejoli (lot #585), Gung Anom’s Membawa Kayu Bakar (lot #608) and Soni Satria’s Seperti Banteng (lot #577). A few paintings by well-known established artists such as Amrus Natalsya, Hasan Djafar, Nyoman Gunarsa, Jeihan Sukmantoro, Krijono and Popo Iskandar, can also be found in this auction.

We have selected Brahmbudi Panoedi’s painting entitled Shopping (lot #629) to adorn the cover of our catalog this time, as we believe that every artist has the potential to create good works of art, whether they are maestros, established artists, emerging artists or newcomers. Through our Artfordable Auctions, we hope to develop a community of art enthusiasts who are able to appreciate and collect art primarily for their aesthetic value. We hope that the artworks we present will be proudly placed on display, bring joy and happiness to those who view them, and play a meaningful role in shaping the homes of those who have successfully bid and purchased them through our auctions.

In years to come we really hope that our Sidharta Auctioneer - Alam Sutera Artfordable Auction will become a regular event that happens in the final quarter of every year. As the mass media tends to favor news about record-breaking painting sold in auction, there is a stigma that people always pay high prices at art auctions. In fact art auctions are also the best place to find great bargains as many artworks are sold in auction at prices considerably lower than market prices. We believe that art should be attainable and that everyone should have the equal privilege to own art pieces through auctions as the fairest means for acquiring art. Auctions are not only fair but they are often also quite entertaining.

So, flip through the pages of our catalog and come to visit the viewings at Mall @ Alam Sutera. On auction day, Sunday, 9 December 2018, do plan to have lunch at one of the many restaurants at Flavor Bliss, at Living World, along Jl. Jalur Sutera and at Mall @ Alam Sutera. At 1:30 pm we hope to see you participate by bidding in person at Mall @ Alam Sutera! The event will be an enjoyable art adventure that hopefully will make your end of year be merrier, more colorful and prosperous.
