Inspired by two years in London, Bayu Utomo Radjikin offers new works at the Wei-Ling Gallery.

Wei-Ling Gallery, which has etched a mark for its cutting-edge contemporary art by young artists, has lined up an impressive raft of solos that will show throughout the year:

Yusof Ghani (his important new Bering series), Anurendra Jegadeva, Ivan Lam, Hamidi Hadi, printmaker Juhari Muhammad Said, the husband-and-wife team of Choy Chun Wei and Yau Bee Ling and Matahati stalwarts Bayu Utomo Radjikin (his London Re-classicism makeover) and Hamir Soib (the multimedia artist behind the experimental warehouse space, Gudang).

Collaborations with Australia will be featured in An Island South in February.
