39 NASHAR (INDONESIAN, 1928-1994) Getaran Alam (Vibrancy of Nature) Oil on canvas, framed Signed with artist’s monogram and dated 10.4.1985 at lower right Painted in 1985 5 x 81 cm (25½ x 31¾ in).

Nashar s place of significance in 20th century Indonesian art history is cemented by his theory of intuitive painting. He was born in Pariman, West Sumatra in 1928. Nature serves as the point of departure for his works, but he sought to depict non-representational forms that are self-referential and pure onto themselves, even as these forms may allude to external reality. Being released from the necessity of representation, Nashar strived towards an experiential approach to painting.
