Description
Art Worlds speaks with ruangrupa, a collective founded in 2000 and based in the south of Indonesia’s capital Jakarta, who along with two other collectives, Serrum and Grafis Huru Hara, have formed Gudskul, a public learning space and educational platform. They see the project as an ecosystem and founded on the idea of collectivism, all resources are pooled and shared. This includes equipment, money and books. From their vast warehouse complex, ruangrupa’s Farhid Rakun, an architect and investigator, and Gudskul's Gesyada Siregar and Cella Kencana Putri talk about how they run their abundant activities and programmes.
