SUKAWATI Anak Agung Gde Anom (b. 1966) Balinese temple procession, 1990. Acrylic on canvas. Signed, dated and located in Ubud (Bali) lower right. (Moisture marks at bottom) 68 x 108.5 cm Note: Originally from Ubud, Bali's major artistic center since the early 20th century, Anak Agung Gde Anom Sukawati follows in the footsteps of the great dynasties of painters who have contributed to the international renown of Balinese art. His works are distinguished by the precision of their drawing, the richness of their narrative and the attention paid to the religious ceremonies that still punctuate life on the island today. The procession depicted here illustrates one of the fundamental aspects of Balinese culture: the central place of the temple in the social and spiritual organization of the community. The artist meticulously renders the complexity of the rituals, costumes and offerings, perpetuating a pictorial tradition that makes painting not only a decorative art, but also a true testimony to Hindu-Balinese civilization. Heir to the Ubud School while remaining deeply rooted in the island's contemporary practices, his work is today among the most representative expressions of late 20th-century Balinese painting.
