White Cube is pleased to present ‘THRESHOLDS’, a group exhibition featuring the work of 9 contemporary artists whose practices are rooted in or connected to Indonesia.
Forming a chorus of unique experiences, all of which are shaped by the crossing of a ‘threshold’, the works on view reflect an understanding of the coexistence of light and dark; a dynamic whereby opposite forces are not at odds but in balance.
Featured artists: Galuh Anindita, Arahmaiani, Christine Ay Tjoe, Nadiah Bamadhaj, Kei Imazu, Ines Katamso, I Gusti Ayu Kadek Murniasih, Citra Sasmita and Jennifer Tee.

The Racuns and Gurat Art Project offers a creative space where the precise lines of traditional Kamasan painting serve as a wellspring of inspiration for modern visual art.
