Understanding Balinese paintings: collections, narrative, aesthetics and society

该项目将使用数字化工具、实地考察和正式分析，将澳大利亚收藏的巴厘岛绘画与世界其他地方的收藏以及巴厘岛艺术家的现行做法联系起来。该项目提高了澳大利亚分析印度尼西亚文化和促进区域遗产保护的能力。这些成果将为今后的绘画和网络资源公共展览提供基础，将澳大利亚公共机构和巴厘社区联系起来。

This project will use digital tools, fieldwork and formal analysis to link a major collection of Balinese paintings held in Australia to collections elsewhere in the world, and to the current practices of Balinese artists. The project increases the capacity of Australia to analyse the cultures of Indonesia and to contribute to regional heritage preservation. The outcomes will provide a basis for future public exhibitions of paintings and web-based resources linking Australian public institutions and Balinese communities.
