Book Description

Craftmanship Within the History of Architecture in Indonesia. In the sixth edition of "ARCHINESIA Bookgazine" we explore what the Indonesian team of curators does in the 14th International Architecture Exhibition in Venice, Italy that is still going until November 16, 2014. In response to the biennale’s title, “Fundamentals”, with the theme pitched by Rem Koolhaas to all participants about “Absorbing Modernity: 1914-2014”, the Indonesian team presents a historical record of the influence of craftsmanship and materials in the course of modern Indonesian architecture. This perspective was not widely discussed, although given the region’s many similarities it would not be a surprise that craftsmanship and materials also play a significant role in other Southeast Asian countries besides Indonesia. It may be that the topic is a reflection of what is happening in cognate countries.
