Since its first edition in 2009, Art Jakarta has developed and established itself as the most prominent contemporary art fair in Indonesia and the region. As the first and foremost art fair in Indonesia, Art Jakarta embraces all stakeholders, from artists, galleries, collectors, to art enthusiasts, and serves as a platform in the development of Indonesia's art market and discovery of new talent. 2018 will be an important year for Art Jakarta as it will mark its 10th anniversary.

In 2017, over 47,000 visitors attended Art Jakarta. Nearly 80% of all artworks exhibited were sold during the fair's four opening days. For its tenth edition, Art Jakarta will return again with many interesting presentations and add a new dimension to Indonesia's thriving art scene.

A key aspect of Art Jakarta's continued success is the support by MRA Media, a member of the prominent MRA Group of lifestyle companies. Backed by a 360 degrees media coverage, Art Jakarta proudly positioned itself as the key annual art event, with a strong lifestyle element. The increasing number of visitors over the years are testimony to this success.

For the forthcoming 2018 edition, Art Jakarta will again present a host of many interesting creativity programs in collaboration with local and international partners, such as art activities within the mall, creative art performances, special projects with artists, creative art talks and workshop classes. The fair's Art Creative Area will also be an important element in presenting lifestyle products in an artistic way. These programs will underline Art Jakarta's strength as the only place to enjoy Indonesia's creative diversity with a lifestyle touch.

The participation and support from both our official and private partners is yet another cornerstone of Art Jakarta's strong position. The Indonesian Government's continued support opens opportunities for young artists to present their works at the fair and be discovered by the public at large.

Art Jakarta 2018 will be held 2-5 August 2018 and return to the same premium location since its first edition: The Ritz-Carlton Jakarta, Pacific Place. Located in the central business district and the heart of Jakarta, Pacific Place is Jakarta's luxury shopping center, home of international popular brands, and guarantees a vast pool of potential visitors. It is also the best address for any event, also for the aspiring middle class who make mall visits a part of their lifestyle.

MRA Media, the organizer of Art Jakarta, is part of a business group with a clear focus on lifestyle: digital media, radio stations, and print magazines – all ensure maximum visibility for Art Jakarta, the fair participants, their artists, and the fair programs. Art Jakarta's promotion and publication is further enhanced by the support of other conventional and regional digital media and partnerships, in place since the first edition. This ensures the best outreach and most extensive promotion, for the success of Art Jakarta 2018.
