TITLE: Raden Salleh and Juan Luna - a comparative perspective
SPEAKER: Dr John Clark

Raden Saleh and Juan Luna are the two major Southeast Asian European salon painters of the 19th century and the artists of the two great nationalist pictorial statements about European colonial rule, The Arrest of Diponegoro (1857) and Spoliarium (1884). John compares the different ways that Raden Saleh and Juan Luna approached creating art in a colonial context and examines how each made nationalistic statements about colonial rule while adhering to European norms.
