Made Wianta
Complementing Pierre Poretti's evocative photographs of this unique event are essays by renowned scholar of Indonesian art Marc Bollansee and prominent Asian curator and art critic Apinan Poshyananda. Bollansee details the growth of Made Wianta's concern for peace, his inspiration and influences, the background to Art and Peace Performance, and the special events of December 10, 1999, while Poshyananda examines the place of the Art and Peace Performance in the international and Indonesian contemporary art scene. Continuing the peace messages of Art and Peace Performance are Wianta's Peace Installations and Wave Paintings. These later works bear testimony to Wianta's prolific creativity for he is one of the few artists to explore themes through diverse genres such as painting, installation and performance art. Art and Peace Performance represents a significant achievement in Wianta's aesthetic journey and will live on in Indonesia as perhaps one of the largest community-based performance artworks dedicated to peace and non-violence.

Wild Dogs in Bali
In recent years Wianta's calligraphic paintings have been thoroughly influenced by his drawing practices, which makes "Wild dogs in Bali" all the more fascinating. This book will make a significant contribution to enhancing knowledge, understanding and appreciation of artistic practices on the mythical and paradisiacal island of Bali. This study of the widely exhibited art of Balinese Made Wianta is by a US writer and art critic who visited Bali in 2003, after the Kuta tragedy. Black and white photographs and a travelogue introduce aspects of the island's culture and terrain. Wianta's innovative drawings and calligraphy are discussed and presented in 60 colour plates, followed by a chronology, bibliography and index.
