The endless exploration of art and design is one of the main reasons people get attracted to Bali. On this small island, artists from all over the world came and interpreted their own vision of Bali into paintings and design works. Collaborations become unavoidable, and thus art in Bali flourish. Here are our selections of must-visit art galleries in Bali.
Yellow Brick Road Gallery
The Yellow Brick Road is a representation of the road to happiness and prosperity. This sums up the path of making the decision to quit the corporate world and pursue their aspirations perfectly. It’s also perfectly appropriate for the fantastic “under-discovered” artists they deal with since they provide them a stage on which to display their incredible skill and travel down their own Yellow Brick Road. As part of their mission to give back to the community, they work with underprivileged youth to utilize color, creativity, and art to create a picture of their road to success and happiness.
