Anissa Rahadiningtyas is an art historian and curator of modern and contemporary art in Indonesia and Islamic Southeast Asia. She received her B.F.A. and M.A. from Institut Teknologi Bandung in 2008 and 2012 before pursuing her Ph.D. in the History of Art and Visual Studies Department at Cornell University from 2013-2021. She was a 2019 fellow at Cornell Digital Collections in Arts and Sciences and has held the position of Assistant Curator of Asian Art at the Herbert F. Johnson Museum (2020-2021). At Cornell, she was an instructor of record for a course about traveling objects and images in Islam. She has also worked as an independent curator since 2008 in Indonesia. Her interests include postcolonial theory, Indian Ocean studies, comparative modernisms, and Islamic studies.
As art historian Anissa Rahadiningtyas argues, Arahmaiani’s long-term, performative, and community-based work Proyek Bendera (Flag Project) foregrounds a socio-political trinity of feminism, environmentalism, and Islam that cultivates a reparative and egalitarian space of potential.
