Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book aims to demonstrate that Indonesia's woven textiles can be developed and applied to interior design and lifted out of their traditional context to become relevant in the modern world. It covers its traditional meaning, its journey from the traditional context into the world of modernity and also the exploration of new ideas. Hopefully, it will motivate more people to pay greater attention to this cottage industry and consequently give positive encouragement in terms of increasing local weaver's income and to preserve the quality of our heritage."--Publisher description.

Book Synopsis Splendid Symbols by : Mattiebelle Gittinger
Download or read book Splendid Symbols written by Mattiebelle Gittinger and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1990 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Indonesian world is full of wonders and possesses an almost unrivalled variety of cultural manifestations within its compass. Amongst the lesser known aspects of Indonesia's rich cultural heritage - at least until recent times - has been the wealth of artistry in her textiles. Indonesian textiles have played a far more extensive and significant role than as mere sources of apparel or articles of trade. They have formed an integral part of the lives, beliefs and traditions of the diverse peoples of the islands and have reflected the intricate complexity of a vigorous indigenous culture flourishing in an immense variety of forms. Splendid Symbols was first published by The Textile Museum, Washington, D.C., in 1979 and reprinted with additional colour plates by Oxford University Press in 1985. This edition, enhanced by further colour plates and an updated bibliography serves not only as an introduction to the textiles of Indonesia themselves, but also as an introduction to the culture of the people who produce them.

Download or read book Floating Threads written by Judi Achjadi and published by BAB Publishing Indonesia. This book was released on 2016-01-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Floating Threads represents an attempt to catalogue float weave techniques used to decorate Batik cloth throughout the archipelago and hints at possible lines of distribution. Being a coffee-table book, photographs are an important part of the story. Our main sources for photography have been collections in Indonesia's own provincial museums and the National Museum of Indonesia with gaps filled by local collectors and foreign museums when not available in Indonesia. Unfortunately, Indonesia's provincial museums were established after 1950, when specimens of some textiles were no longer available in the country, the prime examples of this being the pinatikan of North Sulawesi and the Kalumpang (West Sulawesi) textiles featured in Chapter Two. The photographed textiles cover the 19th century to the present, complementing the text which reaches into the distant past and includes recent experimentations, for contemporary fabrics are as important as historical weavings to the continuation of Indonesia's precious textile traditions. Modernization is the only way to keep weavers interested in plying their trade, stimulated by the popularity of their products. New forms will always arise to replace old styles that have fallen out of favor, but there will always be a weaver or two who will go beyond craft-production to the level of fine art, as the reader will see in this book. The discussion has been expanded with technical details of specific weaves by the Japanese scholar Keiko Kusakabe, a PhD candidate who has been trekking through the difficult terrain of West and northern South Sulawesi for over a decade in her quest for information on traditional textile production techniques in the region. Keiko keeps these techniques alive by teaching them to her students in Japan.
Download or read book Legacy in Cloth written by S. A. Niessen and published by Brill. This book was released on 2009 with total page 576 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Weaving in the Batak region of North Sumatra is an ancient art practised by women, and exhibits some of the oldest design and technical features in the Indonesian archipelago. Since colonial annexation at the turn of the twentieth century, innovative Batak weavers from the Lake Toba region in northern Sumatra have successfully adapted their art to new economic and social circumstances but at great cost. In recent decades, weaving has fallen into decline and the tradition is threatened, while at the same time Batak textiles are highly prized in museum collections around the world. Legacy in cloth offers the first definitive study of the woven heritage of the Toba, Simalungun, and Karo Batak. The most complete analysis of Batak textiles ever published, it provides a record of more than 100 different design types, including archival and contemporary photographs showing how the textiles are woven and how they are used in Batak culture."

Book Synopsis Introduction to Indonesia by : Gilad James, PhD
Download or read book Introduction to Indonesia written by Gilad James, PhD and published by Gilad James Mystery School. This book was released on with total page 93 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indonesia is a fascinating archipelago of over 17,000 islands in Southeast Asia. With a population of over 270 million, it’s the fourth most populous country in the world, and is home to a diverse range of ethnic groups, languages, and cultures. Indonesia is also one of the world’s fastest-growing economies, with a rapidly developing tourism industry, and is a member of the G20. But despite its cultural and economic diversity, Indonesia is also a country of contrasts. While some parts of the country are modern and developed, others are still very much rural and traditional. Additionally, Indonesia faces a range of social, environmental, and political challenges, including poverty, corruption, deforestation, and natural disasters. So while Indonesia may seem like a dream destination for travelers, its complexities and contradictions make it a particularly interesting place to explore. As a tourist, there are many amazing things to discover in Indonesia, including the world-class beaches and surf breaks, crystal clear waters and coral reefs, stunning volcanoes and mountains, rich cultural heritage and ancient temples, bustling cities and vibrant nightlife, and delicious food and local markets. However, it’s also important to be aware of the challenges that the country faces, including the fact that Indonesia is particularly vulnerable to climate change and natural disasters, and has a complex political situation that is still evolving. With this in mind, it’s important for visitors to Indonesia to be respectful and responsible, and to take the necessary precautions to ensure a safe and enriching trip.
