Fine Art Painting: People in Bali

"Balinese People" in Fine Art Paintings by Iz Maglow

It is obvious that German Art Artist Iz Maglow was inspired by the People in Bali in the same way as by the "Ceremonies in Bali" or by "Balinese Dance".  In his Fine Art Painting he found many modern ways to express these impressions.

While early studies still show the fascination of a new subject and a "surprise of never seen before",  Iz Maglow shows found in his later art work back to his own colorful und structural language.

His People in Bali are tourists on their vacation as well as the Balinese people themselves. German Art Artist Iz Maglow painted those people in several typical situation during their daily activities.

Balinese tourists, dressed in a traditional Balinese  "Sarong", standing aside a little bit to upright, inspired the artist as well as farmers on the rice fields, dancer on their way to the next performance or festive dressed Balinese men and women on their way to a temple ceremony, carrying heavy offerings on their heads.
Iz Maglow even found a festive dressed Balinese standing in the rain with "sin lapis" (=no money) a subject for his fine art.
 

ON THE RICE FIELD THE BALINESE ARE WEARING SIMPLE CLOTHES.
BUT WHO EVER TAKES PART IN TEMPLE CEREMONY, - BALINESE OR TOURISTS IN BALI -, EVERYBODY IS WEARING A FESTIVE "SARONG".
