Abstract

Artistic communication can be defined as the process of exchanging information, ideas, and expressions through the medium of art. In the context of performance, artistic communication not only involves the interaction between artists and the audience but also encompasses the ways in which cultural values and traditions are conveyed and understood. In relation to this perspective, this research aims to elucidate the patterns and processes of artistic communication in the Dongkrek performance in Madiun. The objective of this study is to analyse and delve into the artistic communication within the Dongkrek performance in Madiun. Specifically, this research aims to identify the elements of communication present in the performance. The method employed in this study is a qualitative approach, with data collection techniques including observation, interviews, and documentation studies. Observations were conducted during the Dongkrek performance to understand the dynamics of communication occurring between the artists and the audience. Dongkrek in Madiun functions not only as entertainment but also as an important medium for cultural communication. Dongkrek, which is part of the local performing arts tradition, conveys the social, cultural, and identity values of the Madiun community. Through the analysis of various elements in the performance, including music, dance, and narrative, it was found that Dongkrek possesses the ability to convey profound messages to its audience.

Abstract

Peresean is a martial arts tradition typical of the Sasak people in Lombok that contains deep cultural and religious values. This tradition not only depicts physical strength, but also reflects the philosophy of life, such as courage, honor, and self-control. This study aims to examine Peresean as a representation of local culture as well as a manifestation of the religious values of the Sasak people with a cultural anthropological approach. Data were collected through participatory observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation studies in Semoyang Village, Central Lombok. The results of the study show that Peresean has strong spiritual elements, such as the reading of prayers (mentere), fighting ethics that uphold sportsmanship, and its transformation into a means of teaching religious values in the pesantren environment. This tradition is not just a performance or entertainment, but a medium for cultural preservation and character development of the Sasak people, especially the younger generation. Thus, Peresean is a cultural heritage that has not only aesthetic and historical value, but also spiritual and moral, which continues to be relevant in the face of globalization and modernization.
