Walter Spies
Walter Spies( 15 September 1895 – 19 January 1942) was a Russian- born German primitivist painter, composer, musicologist, and curator.
In 1923 he moved to Java, Indonesia.
He lived in Yogyakarta and then in Ubud, Bali starting from 1927.
He is often credited with attracting the attention of Western cultural figures to Balinese culture and art in the 1930s and he influenced the direction of Balinese art and Balinese drama.
Mexican artist and anthropologist Miguel Covarrubias, who lived and researched in Bali with his wife Rose at that time, wrote:" Walter Spies, Bali's most famous resident, was the son of a German diplomat in Moskow at the outbreak of the World War.
Spies was already well known in Europe as a painter in 1923..
As fine a musician as he was a painter, after the war he ran away from disorganized Europe to the East until he reached Java, where he was called by the Sultan of Djokjakarta to organize and lead a Western orchestra.
He lived for years in the Sultan's court learning their music.
Then one day he went to Bali on a visit and has remained there ever since".
Covarrubias and Spies became very close.
Covarrubias wrote about his friend:
" The months went by as Rose and I roamed all over the island with Spies, watching strange ceremonies, enjoying their music, listening to fantastic tales, camping in the wilds of West Bali or on the coral reefs of Sanur.
Walter loved to collect velvety dragonflies, strange spiders and sea-slugs, not in a naturalist's box, but in minutely accurate drawings.
For days at a time he would be in his tent drawing them, because once dead, their beautiful colors disappeared.
He was temperamental when he went into seclusion to paint, he would work incessantly for months on one of his rare canvases..
He also painted dreamlike landscapes in which every branch and every leaf is carefully painted, done with the love of a Persian miniaturist, a Cranach, a Breughel or a Douanier Rousseau".
The knowledge of every aspect of Balinese culture that Spies provided for Covarrubias' research was well- acknowledged by the later.
" In his charming devil- may- care way, Spies was familiar with every phase of Balinese life and was the constant source of disinterested information to every archaeologist, anthropologist, musician or artist who has come to Bali.
His assistance was given generously and without expecting even the reward of creditSpies was the first to appreciate and record Balinese music, he collected every pattern of Balinese art, contributed to Dutch scientific journals- the Dutch were the colonial power in Bali since 30 years earlier-, he created the Bali Museum of which he was the curator, and built a splendid aquarium".
In 1937, Spies built what he described as a" mountain hut" at Iseh in Karangasem.
Adored by the Balinese, Spies was the co-founder of the Pita Maha artists cooperative, through which he shaped the development of modern Balinese art and established the Westerner's image of Bali that still exists today.
After living for nine years at the confluence of two rivers in Campuan( Ubud), Spies grew weary of his increasingly hectic social life, and retired to the tranquil mountain retreat that was to become the setting of some of his most beautiful and atmospheric paintings, including" Iseh im Morgenlicht 1938" Despite his desire to escape from a constant stream of visitors, Spies still used to receive guests at Iseh, including the musician Colin McPhee and his wife, anthropologist Jane Belo, the Swiss artist Theo Meier and the Austrian novelist Vicki Baum.
Vicki
Baum accredits
Walter Spies with providing her the factual historical information and details on Balinese culture for her historical fiction novel" Love and Death in Bali"- dealing with the Dutch intervention in Bali( 1906), and first published in German in 1937.
In December 1938, Spies was arrested as part of a crackdown on homosexuals.
With the influence of people such as Margaret Mead, he was released in September 1939.
Spies was a paedophile, according to Australian documentary maker Kerry Negara.
A reviewer of the novel Island of Demons, which is loosely based on Spies' life, has suggested that Spies' portrayal of an artistic paradise concealed predatory and exploitative relationships with young Balinese men.
As a German national in the Dutch East Indies during World War II, Spies was arrested and deported.
However, a Japanese bomb hit the ship that was carrying him to Ceylon, and because the crew had the order not to evacuate the Germans, most of the prisoners on the ship, including Spies, drowned.
The novel" All the Lives We Never Lived" by Anuradha Roy( 2018, ATRIA Books of Simon& Schuster) weaves Walter Spies into the plot by name and historic persona.
Spies interacts with the plot's fabricated heroine, Gayatri, in fictional episodes.
There are also recognizable real events in the novel, including his imprisonment and death at sea.
Roy gives him a sympathetic portrayal.
Giovanni d'Alemagna
Giovanni d' Alemagna, Giovanni d' Alamagna, Giovanni il Tedesco, Johannes Alaman, Johannes de Alemania Zuane de Murano and Zuane da Murano( – 9 July 1450) was a venetian renaissance painter of German ancestry, active in Italy, with his brother- in- law Antonio Vivarini on religious paintings in Venice and Padua.
His paintings are preserved in the named cities together with those of Vivarini, and have the epigraphs, which has been transmitted in different spellings like" Zuane and Antonio de Muran penseZuane and Antonio da Muran pense" and" Zuane and Antonio da Muran pense 1444" According to Ridolfo and Zanetti, Giovanni and Antonio Vivarini flourished about the year 1440, where they adduce authority for an altar- piece in San Pantalon, which bears the inscription of Zuane e Antonio da Muran pense 1444.
Although it is difficult to distinguish the two artists' contributions, Giovanni is associated with the St Jerome( 1444), which carries the signature' Johannes'.
This painting suggests that Giovanni's work was generally flatter and more decorative than Antonio's more naturalistic style.
Giovanni d' Alemagna and Antonio Vivarini ran an extremely well organized shop in Venice that specialized in multi-tiered, multi-paneled altarpieces and fanciful Gothic frames, which they subcontracted to various woodworkers.
In 1446 Giovanni and Antonio signed and dated the triptych representing the Madonna and Child with Saints for the wall behind the officers' bench of the recently expanded meeting room of the Scuola della Carità( now part of the Gallerie dell' Accademia).
Resembling an altarpiece but functioning as an inducement to good decision making, this monumental painting shows the four doctors of the Church( Sts Gregory and Jerome at the left, Ambrose and Augustine at the right) in a courtyard around a massive Madonna and Child.
The Virgin's celestial court is vividly rendered with marbled pink and grey architecture, rich deep colours, costly robes, and lovingly observed plant life.
In 1448, he worked at Vivarini's workshop, which was moved to Padua, together with Andrea Mantegna and Nicolò Pizolo, in the decoration of the Ovetari Chapel, but died soon afterwards.
