Collecting Kamoro Karen Jacobs Collecting Kamoro Objects, encounters Collecting Kamoro and representation Collecting The story of ethnographic collecting is one of cross-cultural on the southwest Kamoro encounters. This book focuses on collecting encounters in the coast of Papua Kamoro region of Papua from the earliest collections made in 1828 until 2011. Exploring the links between representation and collecting, Karen Jacobs the author focuses on the creative and pragmatic agency of Kamoro people in these collecting encounters. In early European encounters, the Kamoro people were described as producers of an abundance of artefacts. Subsequently, the presence or absence of artefacts has remained central to Kamoro representations throughout their ‘contact’ history. These historical representations have structured the most recent collecting practices within the region. Collecting by explorers, colonial officers and missionaries, and the multi-national mining company PT Freeport Indonesia are explored as well as various collecting contexts such as exchanges, auctions, and exhibitions. By considering objects as visualizations of social relations, and as enactments of personal, social or historical narrative, this book combines filling a gap in the literature on Kamoro culture with an interest in broader questions that surround the nature of ethnographic collecting, representation, patronage and objectification.

Representational encounters: an epilogue 214 Bibliography 225 Index 265 vi Preface This book is based on doctoral research conducted between 1999 and 2003, supplemented by additional collections research and two further visits to Papua in 2005 (to hand over my thesis) and 2011. During more than a decade of involvement with Kamoro people, children have grown up, elders have passed away, relationships have been strengthened and my own initially naive understandings of Kamoro art have been enhanced. Although the theoretical approaches and basic structure of this book are similar to those of my doctoral thesis (Jacobs 2003a), my visits in 2005 and 2011 have allowed me to adapt and update my original research find- ings, providing a more diachronic perspective on the circumstances of the Kamoro in recent years. My PhD was undertaken at the Sainsbury Research Unit for Visual Arts, University of East Anglia, Norwich, within the framework of a Kamoro research project based at the National Museum of Ethnology in Leiden. The original proposal emerged from my awareness of a lack of recent research into Kamoro art and material culture. A general ethnog- raphy had been provided by the Dutch anthropologist Dr Jan Pouwer, who conducted extensive research among the Kamoro in the 1950s, but the latter part of the twentieth century was barely documented. Only one general, collection-based overview of Kamoro arts had been undertaken by Simon Kooijman, published in 1984. Since the hand-over of the territory now known as Papua to Indonesia in 1962, the Kamoro received virtually no anthropological attention until Todd Harple’s research between 1996 and 1998, mainly as a consultant for a nearby mining company (Harple 2000). From my perspective as a new doctoral student, while an ‘update’ on Kamoro arts would ideally involve long-term fieldwork, this was not straightforward in a politically delicate area such as Papua. Given that prospects for fieldwork in Papua were uncertain, I decided to focus on ‘fieldwork’ in The Netherlands and the United Kingdom by searching for Kamoro material in archives and collections and by tracing people who had worked in the Kamoro region. I was overwhelmed by the wealth of information available. Fortunately, in addition to this study of archives and collections, I was also able to do fieldwork in Papua, because the recently inaugurat- ed (1998) annual Kamoro Arts Festival offered me a legitimate reason to visit Papua and observe this dynamic development. I was able to attend the three festivals held in 2000, 2001 and 2002; the later trips in 2005 and 2011 focused on the festival’s development and aftermath. Several relatively short fieldtrips are not comparable to long-term fieldwork of 1 Collecting Kamoro eighteen months or more. However, even though the latter was not politi- cally possible, the festivals enabled me to meet the same people every year, build up friendships, and discuss and verify my data. ‘Fieldwork’ in the Netherlands continued when a small group of Kamoro people visited the Kamoro Exhibition in Leiden for several weeks in 2003. The wealth of information deriving from fieldwork, and archival and library research, collection-based study, and interviews with missionaries, ex-mining company (Freeport) staff, art collectors, and government of- ficials outside Papua, encouraged me to focus on the diachronic impact of outside influences and the notion of collecting. The book is, to use Douglas Cole’s words (1985: xi), a ‘contact history’, not an ‘ethnohis- tory’. Inspired by Steiner (1994), I chose to take the transfer of the objects themselves as the focus of research, as Kamoro collections had not previ- ously been linked to the historical framework in which they were collect- ed. Elaborating further on Kopytoff’s proposition (1986) that objects have different biographies, I aspired to locate Kamoro material culture and its collection by outsiders in a rigorous historical framework. The variety of information sources that helped to shape this book will now be listed. The National Museum of Ethnology (Rijksmuseum voor Volkenkunde) in Leiden holds the largest Kamoro collection. As ear- ly as 1828, artefacts were acquired for this museum during the Triton Expedition. During subsequent expeditions more material was collected, for example by Captain W. de Jong, who travelled with Assistant Resident J.H. Kroesen in 1903, and during the First Military Exploration of New Guinea (1907-1915). Substantial additions to the collection were made by Dr Jan Pouwer in 1953-54,

Martinus Dwi Marianto July 1995 ABSTRACT Surrealist painting flourished in Yogyakarta around the middle of the 1980s to early 1990s. It became popular amongst art students in Yogyakarta, and formed a significant style of painting which generally is characterised by the use of casual juxtapositions of disparate ideas and subjects resulting in absurd, startling, and sometimes disturbing images. In this thesis, Yogyakartan Surrealism is seen as the expression in painting of various social, cultural, and economic developments taking place rapidly and simultaneously in Yogyakarta's urban landscape.

Therefore, this study aims to determine the possibility of a Plasmodium reservoir among domestic animals in malaria-endemic areas. Methods: Animal blood was collected using EDTA tubes, then smeared and stained with Giemsa for Plasmodium microscopic identification. About 10 µl of blood was dropped on to a filter paper to capture Plasmodium DNA. Nested PCR was used for parasite molecular detection, while Plasmodium species were identified using the sequenced DNA. Results: A total of 208 and 62 animal blood samples were collected from Gaura village, West Sumba and Fakfak village, West Papua, Indonesia respectively.

FLASSY a†, Keterina KAFIAR b, Josefint WANDOSA b, Nehemia SEKAITELES b, Yohanis MANDIK b, & Yane ANSANAY ba† Abstract. This paper evaluates Papua provincial assets which are not utilized or not optimally utilized in Integrated Economic Development Zone (KAPET) of Biak. Through a case study analysis, direct observation, direct interview and literature studies conducted in this research, we found that the KAPET of Biak assets which also are the Papua provincial government’s assets have not been consistently well maintained and protected. Several assets were unutilized and were abandoned. Considering the great potentials of KAPET- Biak area which has cultural richness, rich resources area, strategic position in the middle of world economic growth triangle and on the hub of the global route for trading in pacific region. It would be better to develop the KAPET-Biak and its assets for further zonal developmental concept in this more global world. The provincial government and all stake holders can also develop and utilize several assets to be the part of research and educational center (LIPTEK Lab and office). Keywords.

  • Gender, Ritual and Social Formation in West Papua
    Gender, ritual Pouwer Jan and social formation Gender, ritual in West Papua and social formation A configurational analysis comparing Kamoro and Asmat Gender,in West Papua ritual and social Gender, ritual and social formation in West Papua in West ritual and social formation Gender, This study, based on a lifelong involvement with New Guinea, compares the formation in West Papua culture of the Kamoro (18,000 people) with that of their eastern neighbours, the Asmat (40,000), both living on the south coast of West Papua, Indonesia. The comparison, showing substantial differences as well as striking similarities, contributes to a deeper understanding of both cultures. Part I looks at Kamoro society and culture through the window of its ritual cycle, framed by gender. Part II widens the view, offering in a comparative fashion a more detailed analysis of the socio-political and cosmo-mythological setting of the Kamoro and the Asmat rituals. These are closely linked with their social formations: matrilineally oriented for the Kamoro, patrilineally for the Asmat. Next is a systematic comparison of the rituals. Kamoro culture revolves around cosmological connections, ritual and play, whereas the Asmat central focus is on warfare and headhunting. Because of this difference in cultural orientation, similar, even identical, ritual acts and myths differ in meaning. The comparison includes a cross-cultural, structural analysis of relevant myths. This publication is of interest to scholars and students in Oceanic studies and those drawn to the comparative study of cultures. Jan Pouwer (1924) started his career as a government anthropologist in West New Guinea in the 1950s and 1960s, with periods of intensive fieldwork, in particular among the Kamoro.
