Brilio.net - Ciputra Artpreneur marked its 10-year journey with a special celebration on March 19, 2025 at the Ciputra Artpreneur Gallery. This moment is not just a celebration, but also a reflection of Ciputra Artpreneur's role as a forum for art and creativity in Indonesia. For a decade, Ciputra Artpreneur has become a platform for local and international artists to collaborate, exchange ideas, and present quality entertainment to the public.
Established since August 16, 2014, Ciputra Artpreneur is a real manifestation of the big dream of DR. (HC) Ir. Ciputra. He wanted to create an art tourism destination that allows people to enjoy international quality art performances and exhibitions without having to travel abroad. More than just a gallery and theater, Ciputra Artpreneur is designed as a space for the exchange of ideas and innovations between Indonesian and international artists, which gives birth to revolutionary works based on the principles of Artpreneurship.
The concept of Artpreneurship itself was introduced by Ir. Ciputra in 2005, combining art and entrepreneurship to create works of art that are not only aesthetic but also have economic value. This spirit continues to live in Ciputra Artpreneur to this day.
Since its inception, Ciputra Artpreneur has hosted a variety of spectacular performances. Starting from Disney's Beauty & the Beast (2015) which became one of the first Broadway shows in Jakarta, I La Galigo (2019) by international theater director Robert Wilson, to Musikal Keluarga Cemara (2024) which adapted the story of a legendary Indonesian family in a musical theater format.

The year 2024 marks the beginning of a series of celebrations for a decade of Ciputra Artpreneur. One of the featured programs is the ONE PIECE Music Symphony 25th Anniversary World Tour film orchestra concert , which presents a full acoustic music experience at the Ciputra Artpreneur Theater. This concert is proof that the theater can now be used as an international standard concert hall and marks the return of international performances to Ciputra Artpreneur.
Not only known for its theater performances and concerts, Ciputra Artpreneur is also active in presenting classy art exhibitions. The 100 Years of Hendra Gunawan: Prisoner of Hope (2018) exhibition presents the works of the maestro of modern Indonesian painting in one exclusive museum. In 2022, Magister Raffaelo brings Italian Renaissance art in an immersive format, providing a unique and profound experience for visitors.
In 2024, Ciputra Artpreneur will again present innovation by opening a children's creativity space, IMAJI GALLERY . Carrying the work of maestro Hendra Gunawan entitled Menangkap Kupu-Kupu , this gallery offers an interactive experience for children to get to know art better in a fun way.
As the need for creative expression grows, Ciputra Artpreneur continues to improve its facilities. Ciputra Artpreneur Gallery is currently being prepared with additional audiovisuals, lighting, and carpets to accommodate various events, from art exhibitions, mini theaters, seminars, to artistic themed weddings.
President Director of Ciputra Artpreneur, Rina Ciputra Sastrawinata, emphasized that this decade celebration is a trigger to achieve greater achievements in the future. "The spirit of Artpreneurship echoed by our founder, Mr. DR. (HC) Ir. Ciputra, remains relevant in the world of art and entrepreneurship. I am committed to making Ciputra Artpreneur a leading art tourism destination," she said.
In line with that, Ciputra Artpreneur Director, Nararya Ciputra Sastrawinata, emphasized the importance of continuously improving quality and strengthening relationships with partners and art lovers. For that, in the framework of this celebration, Ciputra Artpreneur provides a special package for the use of Ciputra Artpreneur Gallery in a certain period.
