Legendary is the perfect word to describe this gallery. This place was established since 1984 by Edwin Rahardjo, starting from a small photo studio in a garage with a small gallery, now stands strong on a 2000-meter square land with an exhibition hall, the exterior of the building adopts ethnic Javanese style with a contemporary interior. They organized more than hundreds of exhibitions from more than three hundred artists of several generations, their contribution in the world of art is reaching international scale, so I guess this is the must-visit place for fellow art lovers or whoever wants to know more about art.
