No Murals No Morals

The cities now increasingly providing facilities for the life of its citizens. Ranging from private spaces to public spaces. Uniqueness by uniqueness of the urban life increasingly 'coloring' human civilization nowadays. Civilization and culture become a brand image of the earth human life today.

One of physical shape that facilitated are the city buildings, ranging from the tiny to the skyscrapers. The buildings by itself provide the walls with a variety of shapes, sizes and functions. People then watched how the existence of the walls in urban areas used as a venue for various purposes of individual even communities of the city.

Muralist see the walls of the city as a venue for creativity. Mural' forms of expression can be in various forms, shapes, sizes and functions. For muralist, the walls of the city is stretch of blank canvases that are ready to be painted. An artist with creative ideas able to make the canvas walls of the city as a medium of expression of aesthetic expression.

In practice and development, the making mural as frescoes done by the artists by order of the city authorities or related institutions or certain parties who considered it essential about recording and imaging of an event, or just an attempt so that an area of the city becomes more attractive and beautiful.

Murals is usually not independent of the sponsor message. Muralist itself could be a famous artist or young artists whose works need to be further introduced to the public.

Murals, Public Spaces, Piles, Jogja's Lempuyangan Flyover Bearing Walls

Mural was often correlated with a term of public space. It is regarded as an artistic strategy to "seize" the public space. The public space here certainly have a diverse interpretation. But rather that the public space refers to the empty space that is used as a medium of expression. And of course, the public space is not really empty, because often being in control of the government, which can only be used with the permission of the government.

Mention the name; Samuel Indratma, Arie Dyanto, and several of their colleagues, when it was first incised mural on the flyover's bearing wall of Lempuyangan Yogyakarta, they were requesting permission from the government of Yogyakarta. On a joint effort led by Samuel and his colleagues incorporated in the Jogja Mural Forum, in some parts of the piles and the bearing walls of the Jogja's Lempuyangan flyover, a number of local artists carve classic stories; Joko Tarub, Ramayana, and the events of Sultan Agung and J.P. Coen the Governor General of VOCs in the environment Mataram palace.

Upon joint effort of the mural artists, venues around the flyover Lempuyangan Jogja becomes lively and colorful. You can imagine yourself, without a touch of the murals from the artists, the environment under the flyover of Lempuyangan Yogya only will present just concrete piles, crowing gray, haunted impressed and not environmentally friendly at the same time. Fortunately, the imagination of the artists and their efforts have been juggling the place into a very different world. No longer grayish, the color of the cement that is alienating and unsightly. Lively colorful with all the story depicted in there, creating a comfortable atmosphere for refreshing and so on. Even in the evening the place turns into a bustling location. There, the citizens of Yogyakarta can hang out, chat, & led their children playing in locations around the Railway Station Lempuyangan while watching the trains passing by.

From Yogyakarta, the art mural spreading increasingly extends to some surrounding areas; Magelang, Purworejo, Kebumen, Waterford, and others. So can be said almost all city or county the mural has been increasingly popular in the community. Apart from being a medium of communication, mural can create a social space in the middle of town where the activity of the lives of the citizens never stopped. And at the same time, the dedicated paintings could invite discussion from enthusiasts and audience. That is where the behavior of respect for the work of art mural along with the stories of the display can be placed.

Murals: The History of Wall Messaging

Once Upon a time the world was shocked by a very amazing archaeological finds. Namely, rock painting/carvings in the form of figures wears shoes, long pants, shirt and hat, truly extraordinarily. Beyond the public prejudice, the carved rocks found in the cave of Lussac-les-Chateaux in France estimatedly to have been aged 15000-year-old. Concretely, finding treasure in the form of paintings of wild animals, primitive/ancient human activities; from hunting to rituals. It's a very ancient culture image and recorded meticulously, like a journal of life carved on the walls, floor, or ceiling of the cave rocks.

To be sure, in the caves a series of visual images have been carved by civilized ones. Similarly, when the archaeologists in the other hemisphere found ancient images in caves, in fault rocks, on the rock cliff; rock painting in San Francisco and in several European countries, caves in Papua, and also in other places. At this visual image lined messages on the wall through the skilled hands are full accuracy and artistic sensitivity.

No less interesting is that some modern man is now also fond of wall messages aka Murals (creative wall murals). Even up to the present time, Murals has been a creative field that raise a lot of expression of visual forms. But its meaning is much deeper, communication as the basis of social relations that existing and enduring every human civilization. In fact, not just practice the reality of everyday relationships, but growing rapidly as the desire to communicate the existential struggle, both individually as well as community.

For the sake of Borobudur Temple preservation, tourists might be PROHIBITED to visit, COULD IT BE???

From Drs. Marsis Sutopo, M.Si., the Head of Borobudur Temple Conservation Center. Structurally, we have not found yet any significant impacts among the number of tourists and the stability of the building structure of Borobudur Temple. However, what will directly affect the structure of the building is the wear of the rock on the floor and stairs that from year to year is getting worse. Therefore, what we have to think about tomorrow is to limit the number of tourists who go up to the temple of Candi Borobudur. Of course, it's not easy to limit the number of tourists as long as there is no strict quota. Or it could also be made of other alternatives (where possible) the tourists always be allowed to visit, but go up to the temple is not a must. (SUARA GEMILANG)

Have there been any studies on HOW LONG Borobudur Temple will able to SURVIVE since the natural factors around the Borobudur so close to the Merapi and the potential for earthquakes?

From the Head of Borobudur Temple Conservation Center, Drs. Marsis Sutopo, M.Si. There is no data that can be referenced, the Data that is able to explain until when Borobudur Temple will survived. At the time of the restoration of the temple (during the year 1973-1983) indeed already built the reinforcement structure planted inside the temple, and in the yard of the temple. However, the strengthening of the structure can not be used to determine how many years the Borobudur will survive, because there is no definite basis for calculation. Unlike another case, when you build structures like houses, roads, bridges, and so on, that always can be determined on how long the building can survive because there is a definite calculation.

However, with the monitoring and routine maintenance, expected the mega structure of Borobudur Temple will still be able to survive for hundreds of years, or even thousands of years, if only there is no devastating natural disasters, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions for example, which affect the structural stability of the building of the temple. In addition, in the absence of extreme climate change that could affect the fragility of the rock temple, which in turn will also directly affect the structure of Candi Borobudur the temple.

WHAT IF the UNESCO Revoke the Borobudur Temple Status as the World Cultural Heritage

From the Head of the Borobudur Conservation Center, Drs. Marsis Sutopo, M.Si. The impact of the revocation of the World Cultural Heritage status is Borobudur will no longer listed in the World Heritage List. Therefore no longer be a World Heritage Site, then of course all the awards, handling, and management of Candi Borobudur the temple will be very much different. However, to understanding, the gaining of World Heritage status is a very long struggle, must go through the selection, diplomacy, negotiation, and so on. Vice versa, the revocation of the World Heritage status also must go through very long process. Previously, within 1 or 2 years the World Heritage Site proposal usually got approval from the UNESCO. Now, we must go through a long struggle, diplomacy, negotiation, because of hard competition between countries who own world heritage sites.

Not long ago, Subak Bali The Irrigation System, after we waited and fought for 12 years finally approved by the UNESCO as World Heritage. Meanwhile, Indonesia still has about 26 world heritage (both cultural and natural) are still in the Tentative List which of course is still to be fought to successfully achieve the Permanent List of World Heritage.

World Heritage status is the status and the highest award from the world's official agency in charge of culture. Surely if the status/awards that has been won by country are subsequently revoked or canceled due to the inability of the country for the care of world heritage site and the management, compliant to the international conventions, pride of the nation is at stake. Like a world champion boxing got revoked/canceled his title but not through the official games, because of mistake he made outside the ring. If this sort of thing really happen then surely we judged to be incompetent by the international community, incompetent on the care and management of the World Heritage site, the heritage of all mankind.

There Is No Discourse That UNESCO Will Officially REVOKE The World Heritage Status Carried By The Borobudur

From Drs. Marsis Sutopo, M.Si, Head Of Borobudur Conservation Center. Officially, there has never been existed! A discourse to REVOKE the status of Borobudur Temple (as the World Heritage) by the UNESCO. At that time, the information is fragmentary released by the mass media, both mainstream and online, which then spread out. In fact, the Borobudur's State of Conservation from year to year always getting better and better. This is proved by the results of the UNESCO session report, every 2 years, that evaluating the real condition of World Heritage, and also evaluating periodic reports submitted by countries own the World Heritage. So, the process of revocation of the World Heritage status can not be done suddenly, because of having to go through a long process.

In 2003 ago, the UNESCO monitored the Borobudur temple. In the UNESCO recommendation there are a few things to do to reform the management of Borobudur Temple. In 2006, UNESCO undertaken reactive monitoring and provide recommendations, as well as a "rebuke". Some important recommendations given by the UNESCO, among others; preservation of the temple building (state of conservation) need to be addressed, hawkers growth in Zone 2 must be addressed and controlled, physical development pressure in Zone 3, 4, and 5 need to be controlled so as not to damage the zone of Borobudur temple as World Heritage, and the need for integrated management to the World Heritage Borobudur. From some of these recommendations teh Borobudur Conservation Center must follow up. Meanwhile, what is not authority of theirs, coordinated by the Government to do follow-up. By operating in accordance with its authority, Borobudur Conservation Center directly can only handle the preservation of the temple building (state of conservation). As for other areas, eg development pressure problems in Zone 3 to 5, and the need for integrated management is the authority of the Government. While the problem of hawkers growth in the Zone 2 is the authority of the PT. TWCBPRB.

From the recommendations above, the Government then made a national priorities strategic program, which makes Borobudur as a National Strategic Area, so that the growth of the Borobudur able to be controlled through rules of the national spatial planning. Borobudur region's spatial planning under the coordination of the Ministry of Public Works. Then the integrated management becoming a priority program to be prepared under the coordination of technical ministries in charge of culture (Ministry of Education and Culture). Integrated management of World Heritage Borobudur up to the present stage its regulations being prepared by the Ministry of Education and Culture under the coordination of Dirjen.Kebudayaan.

The result of the UNESCO session in 2009, there is no more a "reprimand" to the Borobudur. However, UNESCO still recommend that efforts to reform the Borobudur continues to be done by the Government of Indonesia. In 2010 ago, as we have seen, Borobudur affected Merapi eruption, until the ash cover the surface of the temple. However, with the rapid action of Borobudur Conservation Center assisted by the community and all relevant parties has managed to clean the Borobudur temple in a relatively short time (45 days) so that Borobudur can be reopened as a tourist attraction. From these efforts, then at the UNESCO meeting in 2011 Borobudur did not get the "bad record" at all, the UNESCO even reward and appreciate the Government of Indonesia that quickly overcome the effects of the eruption of Mount Merapi away from the Borobudur.

The State Of Conservation: An Authority Of The Borobudur Conservation Center Upon The Preservation Of The Temple

From The Head Of The Borobudur Conservation Center, Drs. Marsis Sutopo, M.Si. The Ratification of Borobudur Temple as The World Heritage walk through a very lengthy process. After going through many years of preparation, Borobudur the temple was proposed by the Government of Indonesia via dossier (proposal document) dated September 21st 1990. The UNESCO gave formal approval (No.592 Yr. 1991), the Borobudur Temple as World Heritage. As The World Heritage, Borobudur has the name Borobudur Temple Compounds, which is a unity between Borobudur the temple, Pawon Temple, Mendut Temple, to Borobudur the Region consisting of Zone 1 and Zone 2 Borobudur, Zone 1 Pawon and Mendut, Zone 3, Zone 4 and Zone 5.

Till the write of this post, The Cultural Heritage belonging to the Indonesian people which has been approved as World Heritage by the UNESCO, among others; The Candi Borobudur (1991), The Candi Prambanan (1991), The Manusia Purba Sangiran Site (1992), and The Subak Bali (2012). While The Natural Heritage which has been approved by the UNESCO as World Heritage, among others; The Tropical Rainforest of Sumatra, The Ujung Kulon National Park, The Komodo National Park, The Gunung Lorentz National Park of Irian Jaya. While the works (things) &/ heritage (not-things) belonging to the Indonesian people that got recognition as the World Heritage, among others; Keris, Batik, Wayang, Saman dance, Angklung, and Noken.

Consequence of the recognition of Borobudur Temple as The World Heritage can be seen from two sides, from the UNESCO and the Government of Indonesia. The UNESCO has the authority to conduct monitoring, reactive monitoring, evaluation, making a list of heritage in danger, and delete a World Heritage from the list. However, UNESCO also has an obligation to provide financial assistance and technical experts to help the preserve of World Heritage. Meanwhile, the Indonesian government also has an obligation, that is; perform maintenance (state of conservation) in accordance with applicable standards, maintaining the value criteria grandeur (Outstanding Universal Value), manage by taking into account the principles of conservation, and provide periodic reports to the UNESCO every two years.

Head of Tourism of Magelang District, Drs. Dian Setya Dharma, MM said, "Yes, indeed Borobudur Temple was first rumored no longer included in the 7 Wonders of the World, but it is just a mere issue. But in this case, precisely the UNESCO themselves who then put Borobudur Temple as a World Cultural Heritage, even in 2012 ago the Borobudur also gained Award of Guines Book of Records as "The Big/Large of Temple". In this case, influence on local governments is relatively small, but it is true suppose not included in the World Cultural Heritage will surely closed the door for the Borobudur for still respectable as a world class tourist attraction. The immediate impact will be experienced, of course, by bureaus and travel in Indonesia."
