Museum MACAN (Modern and Contemporary Art in Nusantara)

We visited the Museum Macan ( Tiger Museum), a non-profit museum with contemporary art themes. This museum is located in AKR Tower, Kebon Jeruk, West Jakarta.

For now, the museum presents contemporary art from three Asian artists namely Arahmaiani, Lee Mingwei, and On Kawara. Everything is displayed in the showroom on the 5th floor.

Besides the three names mentioned above, here are also exhibited works of art from the Pop and Beyond museum collection which presents the works of famous figures from Pop Art such as Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein, James Rosenquist, and Robert Rauschenberg all of which are exhibited in the 6th floor showroom

There is also a museum restaurant provided by One Fifteenth in the outer corner of the 5th floor showroom for visitors who want to unwind after walking around to see the museum exhibition.

In addition, on the 5th floor there are also souvenirs shop if museum visitors want to buy memorabilia of the museum.

On each floor, both on the 5th and 6th floors there are clean and fragrant toilets, there are also special toilets for people with disabilities and space for breastfeeding.

Somewhat different from most other museums, in this museum there are quite a lot of rules that apply here. For shooting not allowed to use a DLSR camera or camera, all cameras are prohibited from entering and must be deposited in a daycare. Shooting can only use a mobile camera and is prohibited from using flash / flash. Some exhibition points are prohibited for taking pictures. For backpacks and large bags it is forbidden to be brought in so they must be deposited in the storage room. Bags that are allowed to enter are also still being checked because they are prohibited from bringing food or drinks into the showroom. Walking must be slow and may not be noisy / noisy. It should not be too close to the exhibition panel let alone touch it. You can't lean against the wall. Every corner and edge of the show line, there are security officers and exhibition employees who are quick to reprimand if there are visitors who violate the provisions of the showroom.

So besides enjoying the exhibition, visitors should always maintain self-control so as not to violate the provisions and not be reprimanded nor expelled from the exhibition room.
