Kualitas sumber daya manusia bergantung pada kualitas pendidikan. Peran pendidikan sangat penting untuk menciptakan masyarakat yang cerdas, damai, terbuka, dan demokratis. Oleh karena itu, pembaharuan pendidikan harus selalu dilakukan untuk meningkatkan kualitas pendidikan suatu bangsa. Kemajuan bangsa Indonesia hanya dapat dicapai melalui penataan pendidikan yang baik. Upaya peningkatan mutu pendidikan diharapkan dapat menaikkan harkat dan martabat manusia Indonesia. Untuk mencapainya, pembaruan pendidikan di Indonesia perlu dilakukan secara terus-menerus sehingga dapat menciptakan dunia pendidikan yang adaptif terhadap perubahan zaman. Sebagai upaya untuk meningkatkan mutu pendidikan, pemerintah mengambil kebij akan dengan memberlakukan kurikulum yang meliputi aspek-aspek moral, akhlak, budi pekerti, perilaku, pengetahuan, kesehatan, keterampilan, dan seni. Pengembangan aspek-aspek tersebut bermuara pada peningkatan dan pengembangan kecakapan hidup yang diwujudkan melalui pencapaian kompetensi peserta didik untuk bertahan hidup, menyesuaikan diri, dan berhasil di masa datang. Dengan demikian, peserta didik memiliki ketangguhan, kemandirian, dan jati diri yang dikembangkan melalui pembelajaran maupun pelatihan yang dilakukan secara bertahap dan berkesinambungan. Oleh karena itu, diperlukan penyempurnaan kurikulum sekolah dan madrasah yang berbasis pada kompetensi peserta didik.

  • Cross-Gender Attempts by Indonesian Female Impersonator Dancer Didik Nini Thowok
    Cross-Gender Attempts by Indonesian Female Impersonator Dancer Didik Nini Thowok Madoka Fukuoka Graduate School of Human Sciences, Osaka University, Japan [email protected] ABSTRACT This article examines the creative stages of Didik Nini Thowok (1954‒), a female impersonator and cross-gender dancer based in Java, Indonesia. In addition, it discusses his endeavours of crossing gender boundaries by focusing on his use of costumes and masks, and analysing two significant works: Dwimuka Jepindo as an example of comedic cross-gender expression and Dewi Sarak Jodag as an example of serious cross-gender expression. The findings indicate three overall approaches to crossing gender boundaries: (1) surpassing femininity naturally expressed by female dancers; (2) mastering and presenting female characters by female impersonators and cross-gender dancers; and (3) breaking down the framework of gender itself. Keywords: Didik Nini Thowok, cross-gender, dance, Java, Indonesia © Penerbit Universiti Sains Malaysia, 2014 58 Wacana Seni Journal of Arts Discourse. Jil./Vol.13. 2014 INTRODUCTION This article examines the creative stages of Didik Nini Thowok (1954‒), a female impersonator and cross-gender dancer based in Java, Indonesia.1 In addition, it discusses his endeavours of crossing gender boundaries by focusing on the human body's role and Didik's concept of cross-gender dance, which he has advocated since his intensive study of the subject in 2000. For the female impersonator dancer, the term "cross-gender" represents males who primarily perform female roles and explore the expression of stereotypical femininity. Through his artistic activity and unique approach, Didik has continued to express various types of femininity to deviate from stereotypical gender imagery.

  • Performance in Bali
    Performance in Bali Performance in Bali brings to the attention of students and practitioners in the twenty-first century a dynamic performance tradition that has fasci- nated observers for generations. Leon Rubin and I Nyoman Sedana, both international theatre professionals as well as scholars, collaborate to give an understanding of performance culture in Bali from inside and out. The book describes four specific forms of contemporary performance that are unique to Bali: • Wayang shadow-puppet theatre • Sanghyang ritual trance performance • Gambuh classical dance-drama • the virtuoso art of Topeng masked theatre. The book is a guide to current practice, with detailed analyses of recent theatrical performances looking at all aspects of performance, production and reception. There is a focus on the examination and description of the actual techniques used in the training of performers, and how some of these techniques can be applied to Western training in drama and dance. The book also explores the relationship between improvisation and rigid dramatic structure, and the changing relationships between contemporary approaches to performance and traditional heritage. These culturally unique and beautiful theatrical events are contextualised within religious, intel- lectual and social backgrounds to give unparalleled insight into the mind and world of the Balinese performer. Leon Rubin is Director of East 15 Acting School, University of Essex. I Nyoman Sedana is Professor at the Indonesian Arts Institute (ISI) in Bali, Indonesia. Contents List

  • Tayuban Dance and Culture Change in East Java
    THE POLITICS OF POPULAR ART: TAYUBAN DANCE AND CULTURE CHANGE IN EAST JAVA Robert W. Hefner In terms of our often chimerical Image of px.iya.yi culture, tayuhan dance can at first sight appear bewilderingly un-Javanese. Contrary to most Indonesian dance styles, tayuhan involves men dancing directly with women,1 in a fashion which on occasion may be flirtatious or even intimate. The female dancers are paid professionals known as ttzd k zk or tandh.ak.2 When it is a man’s turn to "receive the dance scarf," these women come to sit at his side, sing him a song, and, at its end, offer him a glass of alcohol, which he dashes down boldly, then taking to the dance floor. Although the practice is generally discouraged today, sometimes women may sit on the male dancer’s lap, and on a few occasions actually kiss him. Such sexual behavior by tlzd h ek has contributed to the widespread perception of them as prostitutes, and, together with the dance’s drinking and economic expense, has also caused Muslim reformists and some government officials in recent years to call for the dance’s abolition. Whatever notoriety tayuhan has gained, however, it still enjoys considerable popularity in areas of East and (to a perhaps lesser degree) Central Java. In many communities, moreover, it is not only a popular form of entertainment, but an integral part of spirit shrine ritual associated with annual hzxAih. dut&a festivity. Without the dance, one is told, crops might fail, people would fall ill, and the land might turn barren.

  • Balinese Dances As a Means of Tourist Attraction
    BALINESE DANCES AS A MEANS OF TOURIST ATTRACTION : AN ECONOMIC PERSPECTIVE By : Lie Liana Dosen Tetap Fakultas Teknologi Informasi Universitas Stikubank Semarang ABSTRACT Makalah ini menguraikan secara ringkas Tari Bali yang ditinjau dari perspekif ekonomi dengan memanfaatkan Bali yang terkenal sebagai salah satu daerah tujuan wisata di Indonesia. Keterkenalan Bali merupakan keuntungan tersendiri bagi pelaku bisnis khususnya bisnis pariwisata. Kedatangan wisatawan asing dengan membawa dolar telah meningkatkan ekonomi masyarakat Bali, yang berarti pula devisa bagi Indonesia. Bali terkenal karena kekayaannya dalam bidang kesenian, khususnya seni tari. Tari Bali lebih disukai karena lebih glamor, ekspresif dan dinamis. Oleh karena itu seni tari yang telah ada harus dilestarikan dan dikembangkan agar tidak punah, terutama dari perspektif ekonomi. Tari Bali terbukti memiliki nilai ekonomi yang tinggi terutama karena bisa ‘go international’ dan tentunya dapat meningkatkan pemasukan devisa negara melalui sektor pariwisata. Kata Kunci: Tari, ekonomi, pariwisata, A. INTRODUCTION It is commonly known that Bali is the largest foreign and domestic tourist destination in Indonesia and is renowned for its highly developed arts, including dances, sculptures, paintings, leather works, traditional music and metalworking. Meanwhile, in terms of history, Bali has been inhabited since early prehistoric times firstly by descendants of a prehistoric race who migrated through Asia mainland to the Indonesian archipelago, thought to have first settled in Bali around 3000 BC. Stone tools dating from this time have been found near the village of Cekik in the island's west. Most importantly, Balinese culture was strongly influenced by Indian, and particularly Sanskrit, culture, in a process beginning around the 1st century AD. The name Balidwipa has been discovered from various inscriptions.

  • Asia Society Presents Music and Dance of Yogyakarta
    Asia Society Presents Music and Dance of Yogyakarta Sunday, November 11, 2018 7:00 P.M. Asia Society 725 Park Avenue at 70th Street New York City This program is approximately ninety minutes with no intermission In conjunction with a visit from Hamengkubuwono X, the Sultan of Yogyakarta in Indonesia, Asia Society hosts a performance by the court dancers and musicians of Yogyakarta. The Palace of Karaton Ngayogyakarta Hadiningrat is the cultural heart of the city. From generation to generation, the Sultans of Yogyakarta are the traditional governors of the city and responsible for passing on art and culture heritage. The entire royal family is involved in preserving these art forms, and the troupe must perform with a member of the royal family present. The dances from Yogyakarta will be accompanied by gamelan music native to Java. Program Golek Menak Umarmaya Umarmadi Dance Masked Dance Fragment (Wayang Wong) “Klana Sewandana Gandrung” Bedhaya Sang Amurwabhumi About the forms: Golek Menak The golek menak is a contemporary example of the seminal influence exerted by the puppet theater on other Javanese performing arts. This dance was inspired by the stick–puppet theater (wayang golek), popular in the rural area of Yogyakarta. Using the three dimensional rod-puppets, it portrays episodes from a series of stories known as menak. Unlike the high-art wayang kulit (shadow puppets), it is a village entertainment, and it did not flourish at the court. As a dance drama, golek menak focuses on imitating this rod-puppet theater with amazing faithfulness. Human dancers realistically imitate the smallest details of puppet movement, right down to the stylized breathing of the puppets.

  • Body of Tradition: Becoming a Woman Dalang in Bali
    Body of Tradition: Becoming a Woman Dalang in Bali A dissertation presented to the faculty of the College of Fine Arts of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Jennifer L. Goodlander August 2010 © 2010 Jennifer L. Goodlander. All Rights Reserved. 2 This dissertation titled Body of Tradition: Becoming a Woman Dalang in Bali by JENNIFER L. GOODLANDER has been approved for the Interdisciplinary Arts and the College of Fine Arts by William F. Condee Professor of Theater Charles A. McWeeny Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT GOODLANDER, JENNIFER L., Ph.D., August 2010, Interdisciplinary Arts Body of Tradition: Becoming a Woman Dalang in Bali (248 pp.) Director of Dissertation: William F. Condee The role of women in Bali must be understood in relationship to tradition, because “tradition” is an important concept for analyzing Balinese culture, social hierarchy, religious expression, and politics. Wayang kulit, or shadow puppetry, is considered an important Balinese tradition because it connects a mythic past to a political present through public, and often religiously significant ritual performance. The dalang, or puppeteer, is the central figure in this performance genre and is revered in Balinese society as a teacher and priest. Until recently, the dalang has always been male, but now women are studying and performing as dalangs. In order to determine what women in these “non-traditional” roles means for gender hierarchy and the status of these arts as “traditional,” I argue that “tradition” must be understood in relation to three different, yet overlapping, fields: the construction of Bali as a “traditional” society, the role of women in Bali as being governed by “tradition,” and the performing arts as both “traditional” and as a conduit for “tradition.” This dissertation is divided into three sections, beginning in chapters two and three, with a general focus on the “tradition” of wayang kulit through an analysis of the objects and practices of performance.

  • The Origins of Balinese Legong
    STEPHEN DAVIES The origins of Balinese legong Introduction In this paper I discuss the origin of the Balinese dance genre of legong. I date this from the late nineteenth century, with the dance achieving its definitive form in the period 1916-1932. These conclusions are at odds with the most common history told for legong, according to which it first appeared in the earliest years of the nineteenth century. The genre Legong is a secular (balih-balihan) Balinese dance genre.1 Though originally as- sociated with the palace,2 legong has long been performed in villages, espe- cially at temple ceremonies, as well as at Balinese festivals of the arts. Since the 1920s, abridged versions of legong dances have featured in concerts organized for tourists and in overseas tours by Balinese orchestras. Indeed, the dance has become culturally emblematic, and its image is used to advertise Bali to the world. Traditionally, the dancers are three young girls; the servant (condong), who dances a prelude, and two legong. All wear elaborate costumes of gilded cloth with ornate accessories and frangipani-crowned headdresses.3 The core 1 Proyek pemeliharaan 1971. Like all Balinese dances, legong is an offering to the gods. It is ‘secu- lar’ in that it is not one of the dance forms permitted in the inner yards of the temple. Though it is performed at temple ceremonies, the performance takes place immediately outside the temple, as is also the case with many of the other entertainments. The controversial three-part classification adopted in 1971 was motivated by a desire to prevent the commercialization of ritual dances as tourist fare.

Where culture and religion are fused, the traditional costume serves one of the most functions in rituals in Bali. This research aims to analyze the charac- teristics of Balinese costumes by focusing on the Legong dance costume. Quantitative re- search was performed using 332 images of Indonesian costumes and 210 images of Balinese ceremonial costumes. Qualitative research was performed by doing field research in Puri Saba, Gianyar and SMKN 3 SUKAWATI(Traditional Art Middle School). The paper illus- trates the influence and structure of Indonesian traditional costume. As the result, focusing on the upper wear costume showed that the ancient era costumes were influenced by animism. They consist of tube(kemben), shawl(syal), corset, dress(terusan), body painting and tattoo, jewelry(perhiasan), and cross. The Modern era, which was shaped by religion, consists of baju kurung(tunic) and kebaya(kaftan). The Balinese costume consists of the costume of participants and the costume of performers.
