This exhibition was a fund-rising exhibition for Agoes Jolly, organized by Yayasan Denny JA and Yayasan Kreasi Pitulungan. Many Jakarta based artists involved, namely: Yahya TS, Titis Djaharuddin, Afriani, Derson M., Najib Amrullah, Siswantoro, Baron Basuning, Achmad Syahri, Ille Sale, Budi Karmanto, Irawan Karseno, Iswanto Hartono, Jeffry Sumampouw (Rypo), Mas Padhik, Patrick C. Wowor, S. Wito, Petrus Chrisna Wijaya, Herman Widianto, Rb. Ali, Sriwarso Wahono, Hudi Alfachuri, Aidil Usman, Ruang Rupa, Chandra Johan.

This exhibition was well displayed, but I should criticized this exhibition: 1. Although the event was fund-rising exhibition, the product to sell was still artworks (painting/sculpture/installation, etc) - not Agoes Jolly. It would be more strategic if the artworks exhibited was curated and well selected. No hard feelings, I just didn't get any 'feels' with exhibited works. 2. The artworks section of the catalog was printed in monochrome - would be better if printed in color to show the works.
