This place could be a gem but it is totally neglected. A shame to let such a heritage just rott away. This could and should be a tourist magnet but the management is totally underwhelming. Right now no need to go.

This was the home of a Belgian artist. His art is beautiful, sensual, colourful and using his young model Balinese Ni Pollak (later became his wife). Their home, now the gallery is well preserved but his art should be kept in controlled atmosphere airconditioning. Some of the paintings due to time and salt damage have faded considerably. We loved this...

Beautiful paintings, but very shame that the government who has been trusted by the late artisan didn't maintain the place and not restore the paintings periodically as it should be ....
Its a lovely house you can imagine the people living there. Also a love story of the artist and balinese dancer

Fantastic place but for the sake of visitors and the artwork the place needs to air conditioned or at least coolled by fans!
you cant really see the paintings as they are covered in reflective glass which makes it hard to view them. It was ok, but I wouldn't make it a must see or anything . If you have nothing to do one day and its raining , go !
I arrived alone, paid my entry fee and went inside the very dark rooms and at first felt a bit disappointed. Then a kind man came in and switched all the lights on for me ( think he may have been a gardener).
