Some kinds of art such as Legong Dance, Ramayana Ballet, Barong and Keris Dance, Monkey Dance, Face Mask Dance, and Shadow Puppet Dance have been being main menu of art spectacle in Bali. Bali tourism performance art has appeared in a new package since 1980. This concept was dominantly affected by postmodern aesthetic characteristics such as: Pastiche, Parody, Kitsch, Camp, and Skizofrenia. Its purpose was to make performance art became more exotic which was related to economic interest. Therefore, many Bali cultural art activities included its sacred value have been eroded by a fast and fantastic secularization process in both quality and quantity.
