Art
Neka Art Museum
is an art gallery and museum in Ubud, established in 1976 by Balinese art lover Wayan Suteja Neka. Inside the museum, you can admire a vast collection of paintings and sculptures that are displayed throughout 6 different buildings laid out in a Balinese garden compound.
The 6 buildings in traditional Balinese architecture house an expansive collection of paintings and sculptures, but one of the main exhibits at Neka Art Museum are the traditional Balinese keris daggers. The daggers are the personal collection of the museum’s founder, whose family hails from the Balinese Pande clan of smiths.
Museum Puri Lukisan,
which translates to Palace of Paintings, is Bali’s oldest art museum. Founded in 1956, the museum has 6 buildings displaying traditional Balinese paintings and woodcarvings. It’s a nice place to see and learn about the many styles of Balinese art within a day’s visit.
The museum was a result of the Pita Maha artistic movement in Bali, formed by late Dutch artist Johan Rudolf Bonnet, who fell in love with Bali and settled in Ubud to produce a magnificent body of work, together with other great names such as Walter Spies and Bali’s own Lempad.
The Ubud Art Market,
is a great place to find beautiful silk scarves, lightweight shirts, statues, kites, handmade woven bags, baskets or hats and many other hand-crafted goods. Locally known as Pasar Seni Ubud, the market is opposite the Puri Saren Royal Ubud Palace and opens daily.
Most of the goods found at the Ubud Market are made in the neighbouring villages of Pengosekan, Tegallalang, Payangan and Peliatan. The location of the Ubud Art Market, which is centred among the art producing villages and at the centre of Ubud itself, makes it a strategic shopping place for Balinese handicrafts and souvenirs.
Green School
is an international school in the village of Sibang, a half-hour’s transfer south from Ubud, which also happens to be a magnificent showcase of sustainable architecture. The structures of the school’s buildings are shaped and built entirely out of bamboo.
You can join a tour of the school to see the amazing bamboo classrooms, the magnificent thatch-roofed bridge over a river, permaculture gardens, a ‘living foods’ lab, a bird sanctuary, and all sorts of sustainable projects – including a hydro-powered electricity generator. Tours are held on predetermined dates and proceeds go to the school’s Local Scholars Programme which supports local students
Museum Puri Lukisan.
You’ll find over 62 sculpture sets in permanent exhibits among the collection.
Notable exhibits include a series of pre-War Balinese paintings from the Leo Haks collection, masterworks by I Gusti Nyoman Lempad, and the Wayang painting collection. Museum Puri Lukisan’s 4th building, called the Founders Gallery, showcases the museum’s history and temporary exhibitions of local artists’ work.
There’s an onsite restaurant overlooking the museum’s spacious gardens and lotus pond. Museum Puri Lukisan is about 150 metres west of Ubud’s community hall, Puri Saren Royal Palace, and the Ubud Art Market.
