Résumé

The Institution of Public sales:
The Master Dealers of Indonesian Painting
Hélène Feillard

In the past ten years, the Indonesian painting market has taken the first place on the Southeast Asian market, far before other nations, reaching world records for painting sales with high-ends like Raden Saleh, Walter Spies or Sudjojono. This development finds its roots back in the early 1990s when new specialized auction houses were set up in Europe first, then in Asia and Indonesia. Almost all the collectors buying in auction are Indonesians of Chinese descent. But the law has little say in this rather young market, which runs partly by its own rules. Considering the passion rising amongst collectors, it seems that painting collection has also acquired a symbolic content, both political and social, lending some national historical legitimacy to a minority whose fate often remains dependent on political interests.
