::Our
Name
We chose the name Batu Bulan Fine Arts Gallery as Batu Bulan
is the most artistic county in Bali. Located between Sanur
and Ubud, this county is the home to one of the most artistic
communities in the world. Legong dancers and stone carvers
from the village of Batu Bulan, goldsmiths from the village
of Mas, silversmiths from the village of Celuk and painters
from Ubud compose a rich and divers artistic community in
one of the earth's most enchanting sanctuaries.
The Batu Bulan name was chosen because of its rich artistic
beginnings and diverse content, be it in the stone carving,
gold and silver smithing, Legong and Kecak performing artists
and fine painters. It is the beginning of the wholeness of
the artistic and cultural community in Bali.
::Company
Activities

of its artistic value.
::Principal
Forward
My
fondness for painting since an early age has been a privileged
obsession. Early exposure through books and literature to
the painters of the world such as Picasso, Matisse, Van Gogh
and others, has immersed me in the beauty of painting. Only
later in life did I have the opportunity to see the real works
of art in Museums and Galleries and reinforce my infatuation
with artworks. The opportunity to live in the Batu Bulan village
and feel Bali's exotic spirits further captivated my preoccupation
with Indonesian arts. Bali, as one of the important art centers
of Indonesia, mesmerized me and impelled me to become actively
involved with the Indonesian artist and art community. With
the flock of new young collectors and the rise of appreciation
toward contemporary arts, many Balinese as well as Bandung
and Yogyakarta artists have flourished. I hope to expand the
artistic appreciation among young art collectors while at
the same time support the new and promising young artists
to excel in the world
