Menuai Senja is a tale of a person growing old. This point in time provides inspiration for people to contemplate many things in a deeper, more meaningful way: the anxieties of old age, longing for loved ones, resignation in the face of death.
Benny Krisnawardi is a choreographer and IKJ graduate. Benny has collaborated with a number of choreographers and dance groups, including Ong Keng Sen (Singapore), Gerard Mosterd (the Netherlands), Gumarang Sakti Dance Company, Institut Kesenian Jakarta Dance Company, Indonesia Dance Company, and Deddy Luthan Dance Company.

The 2015 Salihara Dancefest
Gems of Java / Permata Jawa
Director and Writer: Atilah Soeryadjaya
Wednesday-Thursday, June 03-04, 2015, 08:00 PM
Teater Salihara
Gems of Java is a presentation that consists of macapat reading, gamelan ensemble and Samparan Matah Ati dance. The macapat text is taken from the work of Mangkunegara IV (1811-1881), while the gamelan ensemble serves as a bridge that connects Indonesian gamelan sounds with contemporary Asian and Western sounds. Meanwhile, Samparan Matah Ati is a dance that fuses the vocabularies of traditional choreography with modern theater elements.
Atilah Soeryadjaya is a choreographer and traditional art activist who is part of the traditional circles of Mangkunegaran Palace, Surakarta. In 2010, she successfully staged Matah Ati in Singapore, followed by Ariah in Jakarta in 2013.
In addition, Atilah Soeryadjaya will conduct a public workshop on Javanese traditional dance. This workshop will be held at Teater Salihara, Monday-Tuesday, June 01-02, 2015, from 10:00 AM. Register through tiket@salihara.org / 08170771913. Ticket: Rp00.000.
As a relatively new video-making collective, Gundala Pictures stole the attention when they made Pandai Besi's Daur Baur documentary. The unit continues their good work with their rendition of Seaside's Giggle and Blush. Their latest project, "Iblis Jalanan", a short film that built from Bangkutaman's song is a highlight from 2014's local short film. We sit with Dana Putra from Gundala Pictures to talk about music videos and MTV.
Having been active for approximately 5 years, Cut and Rescue has made their mark in the Jakarta art scene. Through the medium of collage they have sought to contribute to the environment they are a part of, and at the same time expand the meaning of the medium itself. The character of their work is bold and often fearless as they unabashed to express their ideas. Take a look at the article below to learn about Cut and Rescue and be sure to view their work live when you have the chance.

Buai (Udara) began from the idea surrounding the mystery of the body (the small universe), where the body’s movements become one with the movement of the great universe. Buai (Udara) presents swaying movements inspired by Tari Buai-buai (Minangkabau traditional dance) and Shuffle (popular dance).
To date, Indra Zubir has created more than 25 choreographic works. Together with Indra Zubir’s Dance, he has staged experimental contemporary dance works inspired by Minangkabau traditional dance, modern dance techniques, and popular dance genres.
