With its giddy variety of insular environments, Indonesia is unique as a place where so many beautiful things are made. Because of the tropical climate, stone temples and megaliths are the only remnants of their ancient art, the art of priests and aristocrats. The art of the common peoples' everyday livescloth, papyrus, palm leaf offerings, wood structures-have long since decayed. But the motifs survive. Designs and techniques of prehistoric painters and sculptors are still widely used in textiles, metal objects, and woodcarvings on houses and prahus. Fish with human faces which were carved on Prambanan stone reliefs 1000 years ago can be seen today in South Balinese paintings. Nothing is destroyed and everything is preserved in Indonesia. Superb craftsmanship and the longest traditions are best seen in the simplest crafts: the palm woven designs of Bali, the flutemaking of the Torajas, the basketry of the Rotinese, the lizard motifs on Batak magic wands and houses, and infinite other examples of traditional domestic and cultic art. Note: Visit ASRI (Schools of Fine Arts) in the larger cities where painting, sculpture, drawing, graphics and the decorative arts are taught.
