Also known as
Gunarsa, Nyoman
Nyoman Gunarsa (1944–2017) was an Indonesian artist identified in international authority records as a Balinese painter. The available institutional data establishes his name, life years, country association, and professional role, but it does not provide enough scholarly detail to assign him confidently to a specific movement or school. Collectors may encounter Gunarsa's name in auction catalogues attached to paintings and within broader classifications covering works on paper, prints, sculpture, mixed media, decorative art, and editions. These labels are market-index groupings rather than a complete catalogue of his practice. Library records also connect Gunarsa with publications concerning Balinese culture and a museum bearing his name, reinforcing the Balinese context attached to his public identity. Because the source material is stronger on authority control and auction indexing than on art-historical interpretation, attribution, medium, date, and provenance should be verified for each individual work.
Painting
Common works and media
Painting is the only medium directly supported by the artist-identity authority records in the available source pack. Appraisily's auction index also groups matched records under works on paper and prints, sculpture and mixed media, and decorative art and editions. Those broader classifications have not been independently confirmed as regular parts of Gunarsa's practice, so an appraisal should identify the actual object type, materials, dimensions, signature or inscriptions, date, edition status, and condition before selecting comparable lots.
Market and appraisal context
Nyoman Gunarsa auction results should be compared with works that align in medium, dimensions, date, subject, condition, and attribution status. Signature and inscription details, restoration history, provenance, exhibition history, catalogue references, and edition information may also affect the relevance of a comparable sale. Public records can omit private transactions and may reflect different treatments of buyer premiums or fees, so headline prices are not automatically equivalent. The current category data is broad; a painting should therefore be evaluated against similar paintings rather than against the artist's entire observed range. Authentication and a direct condition assessment remain important before drawing a valuation conclusion.
