Balinese Art

"... a highly developed, although informal Baroque folk art  that combines the peasant liveliness with the refinement of classicism of Hinduistic Java, but free of the conservative prejudice and with a new vitality fired by the exuberance of the demonic spirit of the tropical primitive." - art historian Miguel Covarrubias

all photos by Dromoman.

 

The paintings are photos taken from NEKA MUSEUM in Bali. Sorry, I am too lazy to credit each artist but you can follow >this museum link< if you want to find out more about Bali artists.
