Garuda in Bali
Remarkable Balinese sculptures and paintings unfold the epic story of the bird-warrior who became the national symbol of Indonesia.
From his birth as a precious egg to his decision to serve as the vehicle of the Hindu god Vishnu, the divine adventures of Garuda come to life in this evocative exhibition. Part-bird, part-man, and the epitome of loyalty and courage, Garuda holds profound significance not only as a fierce warrior, but as the archetype of a deeply devoted son.
Featuring wooden sculptures and traditional paintings from the late 19th and early 20th centuries, the exhibition traces Garuda’s legendary exploits, capturing both the artistic mastery of Balinese creators and the enduring spiritual resonance of a protector deity who remains central to Indonesian culture today.
