On January 11, 2023, Indonesian President Joko Widodo acknowledged and regretted twelve past human rights violations, including the 1965-66 anti-communist violence, following a report from the Non-Judicial Resolution Team for Human Rights Violations (PPHAM). The team recommended several actions, including building memorabilia of the historical events. In this paper, the author focuses on the representation of the 1965-66 violence in visual art, a subject explored by artists such as Dadang Christanto and Maharani Mancanagara. Even though they are from different generations, both draw inspiration from their family stories and represent micro-narratives on the issue. After examining Dadang’s The Raid Rain (2003) and They Give Evidence (1997-98), as well as Maharani’s Hikayat Wanatentrem (2018), the author found that the artists have produced strongly articulated works of art that were inspired by actual events. They represent ideas of injustice, discrimination, impunity, and a hope that something similar will not happen again in the future. Qualities that are eligible as memorabilia, as stated in the PPHAM recommendation.
