  28. The importance of Surabaya's visual art

  29. Analyzing - lala • We didn't’t find a lot of information specific to Surabaya’s visual art. We found out that Surabaya’s visual arts uses specific elements of art, such as one theme of color , lines and shapes, especially wavy, straight and rectangular. Today Surabaya visual art uses icons such as the TuguPahlawan monument as a symbol and surrounded by Semanggi leaves which originally represented Surabaya. • There are contemporary painting of Surabaya’s icon such as the Suro and Boyo statue, TuguPahlawan, Semanggi leaves, with the paintings mostly being abstract. Most of Surabaya’s visual art we found in many art galleries are influenced by other’s city culture, such as Jogjakarta and Madura. Overall, the importance of Surabaya’s visual art is to define and show the identity of Surabaya. The number of visual art in Surabaya is limited that is why we need to help promote visual art as an important part of Surabaya's culture and heritage.

  30. Analyzing-Aldo • Surabaya’s visual art is important because it really shows the culture of Surabaya and it can represent Surabaya to other communities. We from out during our excursion some new Surabaya traditions related to visual art.. For example ‘Udeng and Semanggi’. The importance of Surabaya’s visual art is that it can attract people to come to Surabaya to see the uniqueness visual art in Surabaya that are different from other cities. This will therefore help with tourism and help our economy.

  31. Analyzing-Michelle • Surabaya’s visual art is important because preserving our visual art can prevent other cities taking our visual art and artists and to preserve our unique cultural identity. We should create more visual art because it can attract many tourists and visitors to come to Surabaya so they can remember the beauty of Surabaya and to help with commerce.

  32. Analyzing - kevin • Surabaya’s visual art is important to me. It is important to attract people’s attention to love Surabaya city and know that Surabaya is rich in cultural tradition. Surabaya’s visual art is different from other city because of the materials that are used. We also use many different unique symbols such as the Suro and Boyo .

  33. Conclusion Surabaya has visual art, though the forms of visual art up to now are not as many as Bali or Jogjakarta. Through visual art, we can help promote Surabaya so our city can be defined easily and be unique from other cities. Another importance of Surabaya’s visual art is to have what we call a ‘city identity’, which allows us to be proud of Surabaya. People can modify the forms of visual art not only to make it better but also to create new symbols that represent Surabaya’s identity. This can make people who live or visit Surabaya remember that Surabaya is the city of Heroes, a stronghold for maritime activity including both trade and the Indonesian Navy. Through visual art we can show that we are a unique city with a strong cultural heritage. In the future we need to be more proactive in promoting Surabaya to the rest of the world through visual art.
