Museum Affandi - Cool activity in Yogyakarta

Museum Affandi, Jl. Laksda Adisucipto 167 (at the beginning of the road out to the airport), ☎ +62 274 562593(affandimuseum@yahoo.com). 

We liked it - can spend a few hours - have some light food too
Affandi is an artist to reckon with.... Help to get a sense of what Indonesia is about... in some small or big ways (up to you :-)

Delightful museum built around the former home of the late Affandi, one of Indonesia's best-known painters. Several galleries, including one with 30 of Affandi's paintings from his early, impressionist and expressionist periods, and another with paintings by some of his 11 children. The artist designed some of the buildings (the central complex was originally his home and offices) himself, and the grounds themselves are worth the admission price. Helpful staff to show you around. Rp 20,000 includes a drink..
