Batik is a craft that has a steeper artistic value and has become part of the culture of Indonesia (especially Java) since long. Javanese women in the past made their skills in batik for a living, so in the past batik work is exclusively women's work until the invention of "Batik Cap" which allows the entry of men into the field. There are some exceptions to this phenomenon, namely the coastal batik masculine lines as can be seen in shades of "Mega Clouds", which in some coastal areas batik work is common for men.

The tradition of batik was originally a hereditary tradition, so that occasionally a recognizable motif batik originated from a particular family. Some batik may indicate the status of a person. Even today, some tadisional motif used only by the family palace of Yogyakarta and Surakarta

Batik variety of shades and colors are influenced by various foreign influences. Initially, batik has a variety of shades and colors are limited, and some patterns may only be used by certain circles. However, coastal batik absorb various external influences, such as foreign traders and also in the end, the invaders. Bright colors like red popularized by the Chinese, who also popularized the style phoenix. European colonial nations are also taking interest in batik, and the result is a style previously unknown flowers (like tulips) and also objects brought by the colonizers (the building or horse-drawn carriage), including their favorite colors like blue. Retain traditional batik s type, and is still used in traditional ceremonies, because usually each style has a representation of each.

While these handmade dolls with a variety of sizes, shapes and styles, the two main types of policies: three-dimensional wooden puppets (wayang klitik or Golek) and flat leather shadow puppets (wayang kulit) projected on the front screen is lit from behind. Both types are characterized by costumes, facial and body parts are articulated. The master puppeteer (puppeteer) by manipulating the rotating arm attached to a slender rod puppets. Singers and musicians play complex melodies on bronze instruments and gamelan drums. In the past, puppeteers were regarded as cultivated literary experts transmitted moral values ​​and aesthetics through their art. The words and actions of comic characters representing the "ordinary" has provided a vehicle for criticizing sensitive social and political issues, and it is believed that the special role may have contributed to the survival of puppets for centuries. Wayang stories borrow characters from indigenous myths, epics and heroes of Persian stories. Repertoire and performance techniques transmitted orally in family puppeteers, musicians and puppet maker. Master puppeteers are expected to memorize the vocabulary of the stories and read the parts of the ancient poetic narrative and song intelligently and creatively.

Wayang Puppet Theatre still enjoys immense popularity. However, to compete successfully with the modern forms of entertainment such as video, television or karaoke, performers tend to accentuate the comic scene at the expense of the story line and to replace the music with a pop song, cause the loss of some distinctive features.

Unfortunately why Indonesian culture has been recognized Unesco third coming from Java Indonesia is not just Java but, hopefully later another Indonesian culture of Sumatra, Bali, island Komodo, Kalimantan, Sulawesi, Papua Asmat, small sunda etc. are also recognized by Unesco.
