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.
