Noh-style mask Ida Bagus Anom was born in 1953 in Mas, Bali, in the same compound in which he and his family live today. He inherited his artistic talents from his father, the noted maker Ida Bagus Ketut Gelodog, who taught him carving, dancing and puppetry. I. B. Anom loves his art and participates in international festivals and tours. He was featured in the National Geographic video "Bali: Masterpiece of the Gods" and is truly a world-class carver. I have often said that the world's best masks come from either Bali or Japan, so I was especially pleased to see the Master's version of a Japanese Noh character. Please note that he does it his way, making no attempt to emulate the Noh style. Quite a collector's item!
