KEINDAHAN DI BALIK TRAGEDI
The use of transportation facilities represents the metaphor of “double-sides sword”, on the one hand it gives usefulness, on the other hand it gives destruc- tiveness. An ideal dualism of modern culture achievement, and the tragedy in- herently implied. While the comfort of traveling embodies the positive side, the pollution and car accident represent the negative side. We have no other alternative, nevertheless, since the modern culture demanded such a high mobility that the use of modern transportation is unavoidable. Almost everyday we heard and read in mass media about various accident of car crashes. Even in minor cases, the victims or damages are always unavoidable. In a huge scale, the accident of transportation might take a great many victimsand material damages. Consequently, the survivors or the relatives of the casualties might experience mourning and sadness, even trauma. These are what we might call tragedies, the ones causing human suffering.Viewed as an event, accident left at least two realities: the one associated with mental/psychological implication and the other related to the factual objects that create automatically new “meaning”, even transformation to other “meaning”.In my opinion, the wrecked cars, or those with the paint peeled off, or the chassis detached, or the whole body burnt out, represent the factual reality of the objects undergone the transformation of “meaning”. A paradoxical reality ofmeaning: between the one referring to the traumatic side, and the other that signify the visually artistic side. It is on this paradoxical meaning that I based my creative exploration to create my photographic artworks. Observation mightinspire an unexpected visual composition. For example, a vehicle with its fabulous design might experience a sudden crash that creates effects such as dented or broken into pieces, while at the same time it creates something unique or fascinating. Here, I saw “the meaning of the beauty” behind the tragic outcome. By photographing the most unique and the most interesting of the broken pieces of the wrecked cars using the close-up function, an artistic and aesthetical photographic artwork might be created. That is the reason for me to choose the title “Beauty behind Tragedy”. Keywords: photographic artworks, tragedy and beauty
KETELANJANGAN DALAM SENI LUKIS INDONESIA: PERSPEKTIF KRITIK SENI RUPA
Nudity in the Indonesia Painting: Perspective of Art Critics. Nude painting (art) is not something new in Indonesia. Many archaeological remains show how nudity, from its most sacred to its mundane forms, has existed in many cultures of this Nusantara archipelago.Although not all of the painters’ (artist’s) current creativity is infl uenced by the custom of this ancient mystic culture, it can be said, however, that the creative heritage of these people of Nusantara who expressed nudity as a language of symbolicand religion languages: lingam-yoni for example, has had an infl uence on these artists especially on the Balinese painters (artists).The creative principle, which obviously of a bigger infl uence has been the tradition of nude painting as part of the teaching process of academic arts, which initially intended to strengthen the skill in anatomic rendition but later developed into a subject of visual art that challenge the artists’ independent creativity. Indeed, several Indonesian artists explore nudity very intensely as their language of expression. And several visual phenomena inherent in their works become widely recognized as artistic and conceptual achievements and receive awards from the global art community. It’s true that works with nudity as their subjects do not receive immediate acceptance from the publik. Some actually experience confl ict and even rejection; conflict which arises from the lack of agreement over the standard valuethat an art work has to be read solely from an artistic parameter.Reading the existing confl ict on the one hand, and refl ecting upon the enormous appreciation on the other, especially the recognition of concepts behind those works with subject of nudity, makes the research on Nudity in the Indonesian Paintings evermore urgent.

The objects here are focused on heavy duty vehicles i.e. 18 Wheels of Steel, which are also or called trailers. The objects taken as the photography resources are presented in the representations of realistic forms as well as abstract patterns which can embody the artistic language of emotive expression using a creative and aesthetic approach. These works of photography therefore take the forms of expression based on the photographer’s experiences with the existence of the heavy duty vehicles which are cruisers or huge, strong, powerful vehicles. The creation of these photographicworks was based on the expression as a basic pattern of creation relying on the colors and forms of the objects with aesthetic considerations based on the creative ideas and technical competences. So that the results from thisphotographic creation are not just forms of documentations but forms of art work presentations on a creative-aesthetic level as well.The approach is focused on the creative-aesthetic aspect which emphasized composition manipulations and photographic techniques such as the selection of objects, using the exact exposures, using the picture formats, and the angle ofshooting. These techniques of course were used based on photographic technical considerations which were oriented to possibilities in practical implemen- tations. In this respect, therefore, in order to fi t the works to the concepts, a thematic grouping of trailers was done, based on detail, refl ection, on moving, and silhouette. The works of photography, therefore, will offer new experiences in perceiving trailers. In photographic view, trailers basically have distinct aestheticvalues as objects of photography which will enrich the spectators’ visual insight.
