Firstly, pay a visit to Bali’s FACTORY Bamboo Factory, a busy hub located on the Agung River where the transformation of bamboo from wild grass to durable building material is showcased. On-site, traditional Balinese craftsmen work alongside a pioneering design firm, IBUKU, to craft sustainable villas, furniture and lots more. On a 1-hour bamboo factory tour, you will be able to see the manufacturing progression from start to finish. You will see how the bamboo is treated and then shaped into all kinds of products including flooring, furniture and doors. Witness the selection of freshly-harvested bamboo and see giant bamboo poles up to 20 meters tall. Learn all about the careful process of turning this abundant plant into construction materials. Observe first-hand the finished product of these master Balinese craftsmen and the advanced innovation of sustainable architecture. This is a rare opportunity to see how bamboo, a natural and plentiful product, can be used to make elegant living and commercial spaces, stylish furniture and many other products for people to live in total harmony with nature. Afterwards, visit elegant mansions made entirely of bamboo. The ideas and creativity used will literally take your breath away, as you see first-hand examples of this creative and artistic work. Set along the terraced slopes of the Ayung River, Green Village is a master-planned community of unique homes, each custom designed, rigorously engineered and hand-constructed to embody the inherent strengths and versatility of bamboo. Discover spectacular homes constructed entirely of bamboo rising up to as many as six floors and totally at one with the natural surroundings. A R T O F B A L I | S A M P L E I T I N E R A R Y ITINERARY DAY 3 Your local guide will meet you at your hotel lobby, where you will depart for Celuk Village, famous for its gold and silver workshops. Explore the many cottage industry UBUD ARTS & CRAFTS artisan workshops and galleries, where skilled artisans design and create stunningly intricate jewelry. Learn about the processes and the traditional designs from your informative guide. Balinese woodcarving is considered to be some of the finest in the world. For centuries, Balinese woodcarvers have been creating sculptures influenced by traditional beliefs and Hindu myths. Exploring the Mas Village, famous for its distinctive style of wood sculptures, you will find natural designs, as well as characters from Hindu mythology. Engage with expert carvers who still chisel by hand, making intricate designs and pieces, such as the traditional Balinese masks used in Balinese ritual ceremonies. Your final stop is the artistic heart of Bali, where many local and European artisans have set up workshops and galleries. Explore these galleries with your guide, to obtain a greater understanding of Bali's art and crafts scene and history. View traditional Balinese paintings as well as a variety of works by contemporary artists, before returning to your vehicle for the return back to your hotel. DAY 4 Ubud is well known as the artist village of painters, but is also situated in the most spectacular Balinese countryside, which you will also have the opportunity to explore. At ENCHANTING UBUD our first stop we introduce you to the architecture of traditional Balinese houses which is quite different to that of a modern house. Then we drive up to central Ubud to visit Puri Lukisan museum, where work from famous Bali artists and sculptors is exhibited. Not far from the museum is Puri Saren Ubud, a palace of the latest King of Ubud. The palace is famous for its unique Balinese art design and is very interesting to visit. Just across the road from the palace is the Ubud art market, which sells various Balinese works of art and lots of different arts and crafts. Next we will leave central Ubud to explore the countryside and rice fields of Petulu village, home of the spectacular white herons which arrive in the afternoon around 4 PM and leave in the morning around 9 AM and are quite a sight to see. A R T O F B A L I | S A M P L E I T I N E R A R Y ITINERARY DAY 5 Enjoy the morning at leisure to enjoy Ubud village. UBUD EVENING TOUR Spend an evening in Ubud, Bali’s artistic heart. There’s time to browse around the art galleries and craft shops and have dinner at one of the many restaurants before watching one of the varied cultural performances. When the Regent of Ubud, Cokorda Gede Agung, founded the painters co-operative and a dance troupe and a gamelan orchestra in the 1930s, his intention was to ensure the preservation and development of Balinese arts. Gradually, Ubud and neighboring Peliatan village became a mecca for painters, dancers, musicians and writers alike. Even today, the gentle pace of life, the village atmosphere, the wholesome cooking of the eating houses, the wealth of Balinese culture and the quality crafts all prove irresistible to the discerning visitor to Ubud. DAY 6 Today, visit the John Hardy Ubud Workshop and Boutique, an oasis just outside Bali’s creative hub, Ubud. With impressive architecture made from sustainable materials set JOHN HARDY MUSEUM AND amid 400 lush acres, you can watch artisans and designers at work creating beautiful UBUD PALACE hand-crafted jewelry sold at around 700 retail locations across 27 countries, including brand boutiques in New York, Houston, Miami, Los Angeles, Hong Kong and Bali. Find your next signature piece from their on-site boutique, Kapal Bamboo Boutique, a 90-foot- tall bamboo cathedral built in the shape of a ship’s hull where you can purchase jewelry and view John Hardy's new collection as well as all the limited editions. Continue on to visit the Ubud Royal Palace, one of the most prominent places in Ubud. The palace is regarded as one of Ubud's most famous landmarks, with its well-preserved Balinese architecture and charming garden setting and is best known among lovers of Balinese arts as one the main sites to view one of the many dramatic evening dance performances. DAY 7 Today, you will transfer to Seminyak, which will take approximately 1,5 hours depending on local traffic. DENPASAR CITY TOUR Begin your half-day sightseeing tour at Puputan Square, an attractive open square located in the city center. A R T O F B A L I | S A M P L E I T I N E R A R Y ITINERARY This classic urban park draws many locals and is a great place to learn about Bali’s colonial history. You’ll find a monument depicting a heroic Balinese family in the square, which commemorates the suicidal battle of the rajas of Badung against the invading Dutch militia in 1906. Next, head to the Bali Museum, located near the former royal palace of Denpasar. Spend 30-40 minutes exploring its collection that ranges from prehistoric finds to early 20th century art. Four main buildings inside the museum showcases Indonesia’s rich history and cultural heritage. View displays of theatrical masks, musical instruments, sculptures, paintings and textiles. You’ll see scale models depicting ritualistic Balinese tooth filling, marriage and cremation ceremonies, which your guide will explain to you in detail. A visit to Denpasar isn’t complete without experiencing the colorful pasar (Indonesian for ‘market’), where locals sell their products and haggle over prices. Pasar Badung is Bali’s largest food market and features fruits, spices and other edible goods sourced from the entire island of Bali. After an opportunity to browse and bargain, spend approximately 1.5 hours at one of the new supermarkets, the equivalent of a department store, where you will find all sorts of different Balinese foods to buy. Your last stop is the Bali Art Center, a traditional Balinese building with a permanent exhibition of modern paintings and woodcarvings. Also known as Taman Budaya or Bali Culture Park, the vast complex is also a great example of traditional Balinese architecture. Your half-day tour ends with drop-off at your hotel. DAY 8 This morning is at leisure to enjoy exploring Seminyak or perhaps enjoying a swim and sunbathe at the beach. FIRE AND MONKEY DANCE EVENING In the afternoon, you will be transferred to the village of Batubulan to see three dances. When in Bali you simply must view three of the most famous dances in the country. Sanghyang or Trance Dance, Kecak or Monkey Dance and the Fire Dance are three performances that will not want to miss when visiting Bali.

  • Ubud: from the Origins to 19201
    Ubud: From The Origins to 19201 Jean Couteau* Abstract Today’s historis often tries to weave together unquestionable facts with a narrative that consciously gives room to past myths and legends. The following article about the famous “cultural” resort of Ubud freely applies this approach to history. Myths and legends about the origin of Ubud combine with unquestionable historical facts to convey, beyond the Ubud’s raw history proper, the prevailing athmosphere of Ubud’s pre-modern past. Thus the mythical seer Resi Merkandaya is made to appear alongside the story of the kembar buncing (fraternal, non-identical twins) of the House of Ubud, and the history of Western presence and intervention.

  • Body of Tradition: Becoming a Woman Dalang in Bali
    Body of Tradition: Becoming a Woman Dalang in Bali A dissertation presented to the faculty of the College of Fine Arts of Ohio University In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy Jennifer L. Goodlander August 2010 © 2010 Jennifer L. Goodlander. All Rights Reserved. 2 This dissertation titled Body of Tradition: Becoming a Woman Dalang in Bali by JENNIFER L. GOODLANDER has been approved for the Interdisciplinary Arts and the College of Fine Arts by William F. Condee Professor of Theater Charles A. McWeeny Dean, College of Fine Arts 3 ABSTRACT GOODLANDER, JENNIFER L., Ph.D., August 2010, Interdisciplinary Arts Body of Tradition: Becoming a Woman Dalang in Bali (248 pp.) Director of Dissertation: William F. Condee The role of women in Bali must be understood in relationship to tradition, because “tradition” is an important concept for analyzing Balinese culture, social hierarchy, religious expression, and politics. Wayang kulit, or shadow puppetry, is considered an important Balinese tradition because it connects a mythic past to a political present through public, and often religiously significant ritual performance. The dalang, or puppeteer, is the central figure in this performance genre and is revered in Balinese society as a teacher and priest. Until recently, the dalang has always been male, but now women are studying and performing as dalangs. In order to determine what women in these “non-traditional” roles means for gender hierarchy and the status of these arts as “traditional,” I argue that “tradition” must be understood in relation to three different, yet overlapping, fields: the construction of Bali as a “traditional” society, the role of women in Bali as being governed by “tradition,” and the performing arts as both “traditional” and as a conduit for “tradition.” This dissertation is divided into three sections, beginning in chapters two and three, with a general focus on the “tradition” of wayang kulit through an analysis of the objects and practices of performance.

  • Global Kamasan Siobhan Campbell 1*
    Global Kamasan Siobhan Campbell 1* Abstract The painting tradition of Kamasan is often cited as an example of the resilience of traditional Balinese culture in the face of globalisation and the emergence of new forms of art and material culture. This article explores the painting tradition of Kamasan village in East Bali and it’s relationship to the collecting of Balinese art. While Kamasan painting retains important social and religious functions in local culture, the village has a history of interactions between global and local players which has resulted in paintings moving beyond Kamasan to circulate in various locations around Bali and the world. Rather than contribute to the demise of a local religious or cultural practice, exploring the circulation of paintings and the relationship between producers and collectors reveals the nuanced interplay of local and global which characterises the ongoing transformations in traditional cultural practice. Key Words: Kamasan, painting, traditional, contemporary, art, collecting Introduction n 2009 a retrospective was held of works by a major IKamasan artist in two private art galleries in Bali and Java. The Griya Santrian Gallery in Sanur and the Sangkring Art Space in Yogyakarta belong to the realm of contemporary Indonesian art, and the positioning of artist I Nyoman Mandra within this setting revealed the shifting boundaries 1 Siobhan Campbell is a postgraduate research student at the University of Sydney working on a project titled Collecting Balinese Art: the Forge Collection of Balinese Paintings at the Australian Museum. She completed undergraduate studies at the University of New South Wales in Indonesian language and history and is also a qualified Indonesian/English language translator.

One of the aspects of Balinese culture is the concept of mandala, called pangider bhuwana. Based on Balinese culture and religion, the Balinese mandala, is formally known as pangider bhuwana. The main focus of this essay is to explore the way the artist expresses and visualizes, using the colors of the mandala. A comprehensive analysis was conducted on the methods that the colors of the Balinese mandala are visualized in Gianyar's contemporary painting. Keywords---contemporary painting, cosmology, pangider bhuwana colors, visualization. Introduction Balinese cosmology is depicted in mandala form as religious and cosmic symbology, which is used to unify the Self. Based on the Balinese Hindu beliefs and tradition, each direction of the compass embodies specific characteristics (Bandem, 1986; Cameron, 2016; Chopra & Kafatos, 2017; Casas et al., 1991). The most important characteristic is color, while other characteristics include a protective entity, a script, a form of movement, and a balancing force, to name just a few.

Mainly, the discussion will be focused on its characteristics analysis and morphology in order to determine the candi typology in its successive historical period, and the origin will be decided by tracing and comparative study to the other candis that are located across over the island and country as well. As a result, 2 groups which consist of 6 types of `Classical Period` and 1 type as a transition type to `Later Balinese Period`. Then, the Balinese candis can also be categorized into the `Main Type Group` which consists of 3 types, such as Stupa, Prasada, Meru and the `Complementary Type Group` can be divided into 4 types, like Petirthan, Gua, ������ and Gapura. Each type might be divided into 1, 2 or 3 sub-types within its architectural variations. Finally, it is not only the similarities of their candi characteristics and typology can be found but also there were some influences on the development of candis in the Bali Island that originally came from Central and East Java.

So warm was the welcome from the local ruler, so abundant the hospitality of the local populace, that many of Houtman's crew refused to leave; it took him two years to round up enough crewmen to sail back to Holland. It took almost another three and a half centuries fo. the rest of the world to make good Houtman's discovery. Today, a bare fifty years since the word got out, Bali suffers from an annual tourist invasion so immense, so rapacious, it threatens the island's traditional culture With complete suffocation. Today, tourist arrivals total around 850,000. By 1986 the numbers are expected to. top 750,000. Not lon afterwards, the Balinese will be playing host to almest a million tourists a year. This on an island of only 5,682 square kilometers" (2,095square miles) with a resident populat$on of almost three million. As Houtman and others found out,_ Bali is unique. I the fifteenth century before the first known Western contact, Bali had been the on-aain, off-again vassal of eastern lava's Majapahit empire. By the sixteenth century, however, Majapahit was decaying and finally fell under the advanci.ng scourge of Islam.
