ABOUT


Anggrek Agency is an art and cultural agency dedicated to promoting queer, Asian, and female artists, as well as supporting emerging voices in design and photography. Founded by Steven Anggrek, a graduate of the Executive Master in Art Market Studies program at the University of Zurich, the agency began its curatorial journey in January 2024 with an exhibition of Polaroid Collages by Stuart Sandford (British, b. 1978, lives and works in Mexico City, Los Angeles, and London), followed by watercolor works on paper by Yen Melia Andreas (Indonesian, b. 1996, lives and works in Jakarta) and works on canvas by Dapott (Indonesian, b. 1995, lives and works in Yogyakarta) and Jérémy Rebord (Swiss, b. 1990, lives and works in Zurich). Anggrek Agency now proudly collaborates with a diverse range of artists, including a talented duo Audrey Julien (French, b. 1990) & Arno Mathies (Swiss, b. 1986), who bring unique perspectives through their minimalist yet expressive works.

Steven Anggrek, born in 1982 in the Maluku Islands, Indonesia, to a Chinese-Indonesian family originally bearing the surname Ang, adopted the name Anggrek to integrate with Indonesian culture. Anggrek, meaning "orchid," inspired the emblem, a refined vector illustration of the flower, symbolizing both heritage and creativity. In 2014, he relocated to Switzerland and is now based in Zurich.

Steven is also the co-founder and curator of Bahay Contemporary and works as a medium format film photographer.
