Ruang Arta Derau

[English text below] Dirancang oleh Hermawan Dasmanto, Ruang Arta Derau (RAD) berfungsi sebagai galeri pameran, studio keramik dan seni cetak, serta tempat tinggal seniman. Area seni dua lantai yang terletak di kawasan utara Ubud, Tegalalang, Bali ini dikelilingi oleh hamparan sawah luas yang memberikan menenangkan. Berbeda dengan galeri pada umumnya, fasad RAD dirancang tertutup, menciptakan kesan misterius. Sebaliknya, interior di dalamnya terasa sangat terbuka, luas, dan lapang. 

Di dalamnya terdapat studio dan ruang produksi Puti, serta ruang pameran untuk suaminya, seniman cetak kontemporer, Agung ‘Agugn’ Prabowo. Selain itu, RAD juga mencakup dua tempat tinggal yang sepenuhnya independen dan masing-masing dilengkapi dengan ruang studio. Rancangan RAD tidak hanya meningkatkan pengalaman kreatif bagi tamu dan seniman yang tinggal, tetapi turut menciptakan lingkungan inspiratif yang mendukung pertumbuhan artistik. Berdedikasi untuk mendukung komunitas seni Bali dan Indonesia, program kreatif RAD yang komprehensif mencakup pameran, proyek kolaborasi, dan peluang residensi seniman, semua bertujuan untuk merawat dan menampilkan bakat lokal.

Designed by Hermawan Dasmanto, Ruang Arta Derau (RAD) functions as an exhibition gallery, ceramics and printmaking studio, and artist’s residence. This two-story art space, located in the northern region of Ubud, Tegalalang, Bali, is surrounded by vast rice fields that provide a calming atmosphere. Unlike typical galleries, RAD’s facade is designed to appear closed, creating a sense of mystery. However, the interior is surprisingly open, spacious, and airy.

Inside, you will find Puti’s studio and production space, as well as an exhibition area for her husband, contemporary printmaker Agung ‘Agugn’ Prabowo. Additionally, RAD features two completely independent residences, each equipped with its own studio space. The design of RAD not only enhances the creative experience for guests and resident artists but also fosters an inspiring environment that supports artistic growth. Dedicated to supporting the Balinese and Indonesian art communities, RAD’s comprehensive creative program includes exhibitions, collaborative projects, and artist-in-residence opportunities, all aimed at nurturing and showcasing local talent.
