Warsito. 43 x 38 cm. Oil on canvas. 1986. |
"Warsito was born in Probolinggo, Java in 1946. He was a member of the Sanggar Aksera(Art Association) of Surabaya, Java. Strong, simple designs and colour ranges are typical in his work. His paintings are striking to the eye and intricate in their attention to detail, especially in the fabric patterns worn by women. His Tenganan subjects are always in demand, but his work also includes everyday scenes of life in Indonesia, heightened by a poetic innocence."
