Don Antonio Blanco Museum, Bali, Indonesia
4.0 (1.400 reviews) Spent Ranking #11 in Gianyar Regency Art Museums
Hidden Gem
We walked through Ubud and eventually found the Don Antonio Blanco Museum almost swallowed up by the encroaching jungle. An amazing artist who was very prolific and covered the walls of his self designed mansion with paintings of his beloved wife. Well worth the walk and admission charge! Sadly neglected by most tourists.

Fun
A museum devoted to Antonio Blanco, Spanish expat artist who lived in Ubud from 1950. Impressive large building in a nice garden with tropical birds. Just opposite Murni's Warung which is a good place to hang out before or after a trip to Blancos.

Beautiful collection of paintings. A love story by Don Antonio Blanco.
Magnificent paintings and beyond…sadly the museum needs a bit more loving care. Beautiful collection of Don Antonio Blanco’s paintings and wood sculptures. Depicting his love to his wife Ni Rondji who was his muse in most of his paintings. The museum is built in European design to house majority of the paintings, while the studio is a traditional Balinese country home. Very large area with beautiful garden. Museum area needs more care by putting more lights so visitors can admire Blanco’s creation.
