Abstract

When emerging dichotomy in art  around 1970s, people who do art (perupa)  in the tradition, are called the artist, meanwhile  people who do craft (pelaku) are called the craftsman or artisan. Especially painting gain a superior position, because the success of western artists in the seat as part of the painting,  that reflect part of intellectuality,  meanwhile craftsmanship is the only mechanical arts. Therefore, fine art becomes to a  marginalized craft and pure art become into the favorite of the time

Further development, the emergence of trichotomy of art, design and craft (the 1980s), the more visible and tangible. Craft positions below, even debased or is inferior by fine art or design. Then became the belle of the design.
