Helene Potjewijd was captivated by Indonesias beauty, which is also reflected in her collection.
The Austrian businesswoman lived in Bali until 1935, which at that time was primarily a tourism destination for wealthy Europeans and Americans looking for a lost paradise.
Potjewijd took advantage of this desire and established a meeting place for tourists, western intellectuals and artists at the Bali Hotel in Denpasar, which was managed by her husband.
Her contacts to Nyoman Lempad as well as the German painter and Bali resident Walter Spies enabled her to exclusively sell supreme Balinese artwork at the Bali Hotel.
New motifs, also taken from everyday life, were added to the repertoire of Balinese art, which was still mostly dedicated to religion.
Not only artistic style and expression but also the format was often changed.
The artworks were now supposed to be portable and fit in a suitcase: Balinese souvenir art was born.
