Abstract

This article is devoted to the study of the ancient Balinese temple Pura Luhur Uluwatu, which belongs to the circle of the six most revered sanctuaries of the island (Sad Kahyangan). The purpose of the article is to analyze the features of the spatial organization of the temple complex, the main types of structures on its territory, the motives of sculptural decoration. Based on the methodology of the regional approach, the author pays special attention to the study of the identity of this architectural ensemble as an example of the pura public temples of South Bali. In the course of the research, the methods of compositional analysis of the planning structure of the temple, morphological, iconographic and artistic analysis of decor motifs, full-scale study of the cult object and others were used. The scientific novelty of the article is that the architectural composition and plastic decoration of Pura Luhur Uluwatu are considered for the first time in the aspect of the relationship of regional-typological and local-individual characteristics. The study also concretizes the list of architectural forms within each spatial zone of the main sanctuary and its satellite temple Pura Dalem Jurit, clarifies their structural and functional characteristics, outlines a holistic picture of the decorative decoration. As a result of the conducted research, it was concluded that Pura Luhur Uluwatu is a striking example of the sacred architecture of the southern region of the island with typological features inherent in it: variability of planning development, closeness, economical use of temple space, free interpretation of individual decorative motifs. The uniqueness of the temple is manifested in its spectacular location on the edge of a sheer cliff protruding into the ocean, the elongated plan of the main sanctuary, the contours of which repeat the outlines of the southwestern protrusion of the Bukit Peninsula, the extreme minimalism of structures and the means of decorative design used, the simplicity of architectural forms. The creative imagination of local craftsmen was reflected in the original configuration of the entrance gates Candi Bentar and Candi Kurung, as well as in the articulation of individual decorative elements (kasar mascarons, kalasa vessels, etc.).

Pura Luhur Uluwatu寺庙群(巴厘岛):构图和装饰的特点
本文致力于研究古老的巴厘岛寺庙Pura Luhur Uluwatu,它属于岛上六个最受尊敬的圣殿(Sad Kahyangan)的圈子。本文的目的是分析寺庙建筑群的空间组织特征,其领土上的主要结构类型,雕塑装饰的动机。基于区域方法的方法论,作者特别注重研究这个建筑群的身份,以南巴厘岛的pura公共寺庙为例。在研究过程中,采用了对寺庙规划结构的成分分析,对装饰图案的形态学、图像学和艺术分析,对祭祀对象的全面研究等方法。本文的科学新颖之处在于,首次从地域类型学与地方个性的关系角度来考虑普拉鲁胡尔乌鲁瓦图的建筑构成和塑料装饰。该研究还具体化了主圣殿及其附属寺庙Pura Dalem Jurit的每个空间区域内的建筑形式清单,阐明了它们的结构和功能特征,勾勒出装饰装饰的整体画面。研究结果表明,Pura Luhur Uluwatu是该岛南部地区神圣建筑的一个突出例子,具有固有的类型学特征:规划发展的可变性、封闭性、寺庙空间的经济利用、个人装饰图案的自由诠释。寺庙的独特性体现在其壮观的位置,在一个陡峭的悬崖边缘,突出到海洋,主圣所的拉长的平面,其轮廓重复武吉半岛西南突出的轮廓,极端极简主义的结构和使用的装饰设计手段,建筑形式的简单性。当地工匠的创造性想象力体现在Candi Bentar和Candi Kurung入口大门的原始配置以及单个装饰元素(kasar mascarons, kalasa容器等)的表达上。
