fahmi — July 27, 2008 / 2:26 am
Since Friday, July 25 2008, an art festival had been held in Magelang, right in the front of Borobudur temple. There are 2 terminology for this art festival, Central Java Art Festival and Borobudur Society Festival. Well, we don’t have to argue about the terminology, since we must see the core and meaning of the festival.
This festival collaborate the traditional and modern art, such as marching band, gamelan, and many more.
During opening, there was a parade that moving toward Borobudur. This parade took imitate statue of Borobudur.
By held this festival, at least there are 3 objectives: 1. To re-introduce about art, especially that related with Central Java and/or Borobudur. 2. To attract more tourists visiting Borobudur. 3. To get attention from government to save traditional art.
I really want to see this festival, unfortunately, I spend my week end in Bandung right now. ;-) the news and pic from here
