| dc.description.abstract | This research discusses the background to the founding of Sanggar Rowo, its
development and ups and downs among painters in Tanjung Morawa. The
purpose of this research is to explain the process of establishing Sanggar Rowo,
the development of Sanggar Rowo which was influenced by the founder of
Sanggar Rowo, the students, and the many artistic activities that were participated
by the Sanggar Rowo and explained the ups and downs of the factors that led to
the decline in the existence of Sanggar Rowo caused by internal and external
factors of the Sanggar Rowo. The method used in this writing is a historical
method with four stages, namely heuristics (data collection), source criticism
(authenticity of data), interpretation (interpretation of data), and historiography
(writing history). The results of this research show that Sanggar Rowo was
established in 1989 after the decline in the activities of ASRI and SIMPASSRI
arts institutions in the city of Medan and the concern of Muhammad Yatim for
arts facilities, especially painting, which are still inadequate. The years 1990-2010
were a development phase for Sanggar Rowo because there were still many
exhibitions attended by protage and the high level of painting orders received by
Sanggar Rowo at that time, as well as painting support facilities provided by
Sanggar Rowo for free. Sanggar Rowo played a major role in the development of
painting, especially the realist and naturalist schools in Tanjung Morawa and
Medan City. However, as time went by this development phase experienced an
ups and downs phase where there was a decline in existence in 2012 due to
internal factors, namely the founder of Sanggar Rowo who was getting older and
his protage who were starting to be independent as well as the external factors of
Sanggar Rowo, namely a decrease in purchasing power for paintings and a
reduction in the level of painting lover. | en_US |
