Balinese Art: Paintings and Drawings of Bali 1800 - 2010
Autor Adrian Vickersen Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 iun 2026
Balinese Art traces the evolution of one of Southeast Asia's richest artistic traditions, from the classical paintings of village workshops to the vibrant contemporary works that have earned worldwide recognition. Richly illustrated and deeply researched, it explores the cultural, religious and historical influences that have shaped Balinese painting over the centuries.
Beginning with Bali's pre-colonial artistic traditions, including the classical paintings of Kamasan, the book follows the emergence of new artistic styles during the twentieth century and examines the impact of tourism, international exchange and modern Indonesian art. It concludes with profiles of many of Bali's most important contemporary artists, including the internationally celebrated painter Nyoman Masriadi.

Recenzii
"A truly masterful work. No one else could have written this boo, with its mixture of scholarly care and sharp and empathetic commentary. Vickers' work is full of new arguments abot the nuances of the relationships between Western visual themes and Balinese ones, on the roles of different groups in society in developing new forms of art, and on the sources of innovation in Balinese art." —Professor Hildred Geertz, Princeton University
"A very important book and a major reference for anyone interested in the field or simply looking at Balinese paintings." —Professor John Clark, University of Sydney
"There have been publications in the past offering insights into various schools and styles, into several periods and places, but none has so compellingly presented the entire sweep of this rich traditions as Adrian Vickers' encyclopedic volume. Vickers, one of today's leading scholars of Balinese culture, has produced a definitive analysis and overview, gloriously and lavishly illustrated with representative images. This volume offers an essential reference, long overdue, and an irresistible story worthy of Bali's noblest traditions." —Helen Ibbitson Jessup, art historian
