A Village in Bali and Its Painters, a lecture by Anne Frej

November 5, 2023
3:00 PM - 5:00 PM

Join the Friends of Folk Art for a lecture and slide show by Anne Frej.  Anne will provide an inside look at the unique painting style of Batuan, a small village in Bali, Indonesia. As background, she will give an overview of the development of modern painting in Bali in the 1920s and 1930s, as the first generation of Bali painters made the transition from rice farmers to painters. Her focus on the painters of Batuan will be a personal narrative of the painters she got to know there and the stories behind their paintings. The techniques and styles, as well as inspirations will be discussed.

This lecture is for FOFA members ONLY.  FOFA members will receive an invitation by email which will include all the details. A single membership allows access to one ticket. A dual membership allows for two tickets.
