Hendra Gunawan: The Maestro Art deco Sri Lanka and IndiaHendra Gunawan is undoubtedly one of the most brilliant and outstanding Indonesian Maestros. While the young Hendra was a self taught artist, he was born with a gift of great artistic talent. He later studied under Affandi, his enlightenment teacher who was another great Indonesian Maestro too.
