The CP Foundation is an independent Indonesian-Washington based arts institution founded in 2001 with the objective to contribute to the widening of the world's art platform. The 2003 CP Open Biennale is the first Biennale organised by the Foundation, bringing together artworks of 126 artists from Indonesia and abroad, through which it delivers the following aim:
The practices of contemporary visual art, as the logical development of the mainstream visual arts, now become dominant and are moving away from its initial spirit and theories. The awareness to replace the development of the visual arts as a part of the entire practices and theories of the visual arts becomes important for today. The theme of interpellation is chosen as a trigger to reconsider and question myriad concepts, understanding, conventions, and forms of domination. Forming its base are the belief and the critical attitude toward the various understandings that have so far been taken for granted.
This CD-Rom catalogue features images of the exhibits, details of the related activities such as seminar held during the Biennale, and most of the essays appeared in the publication.
