Neka Museum

It is common for a painter to build a museum to display their works. But for a collector to build one to house their collection, and opening the museum to the public to boot, is different matter.

This is the story of Pande Wayan Suteja Neka, a teacher turned art collector who had established Neka Museum, a place that now draws a steady stream of interested tourists.

Decades after its establishment, the museum had  grown to become a place where everyone could study the world  dynamics of painting as a work of art, especially those by Balinese artists.
