But Muchtar (Indonesian, 1930-1993) spent his formative years studying at the Bandung Institute of Technology under the tutelage of Dutch painter Ries Mulder in the 1950s. It was around the same period when Abstract Expressionism flourished and came to prominence in America. 

The artist continued his studies in the United States at the Rhode Island School of Design and the Sculpture Centre of New York in the early 1960s. In 1962, he became a research fellow at Massachusetts Institute of Technology. But Muchtar's exposure to Abstract Expressionism motivated him to adopt a highly abstracted mode when creating artworks. 

As a painter, sculptor, and educator, he eventually developed his own distinctive style and pioneered the development of abstract painting in Indonesia. But Muchtar's dynamic and multi-faced oeuvre reveals his versatility and dedication to an eclectic approach to abstract art and modernism.
