Brigitta Isabella
Brigitta Isabella (Yogyakarta, Indonesia) navigates her encounters with people, objects and discourses through different knowledge production platforms that operate at the intersection of art history, critical theory, and cultural activism. She is affiliated with the Yogyakarta-based interdisciplinary research group KUNCI Study Forum & Collective; the feminist art-workers network PERETAS (Perempuan Lintas Batas, “Women Crossing Boundaries”); and a member of the editorial collective for the journal ‘Southeast of Now: New Directions in Contemporary and Modern Art’ (published by NUS Press, Singapore).
In 2014, Brigitta initiated ‘From Bandung To Berlin’, a curatorial endeavor that revolves around the speculative interplay between the 1955 Bandung Conference and the 1989 Fall of the Berlin Wall.
