MiFA and Anita Archer Fine Art present Australia's first showcase of contemporary Indonesian art, Closing the Gap: Contemporary Indonesian Art. The exhibition runs until March 18 2011.  Australia's precarious position as a Western nation in an Asian location brings an interesting dimension to this exhibition with many of the artists discussing global issues in an Asian context.
