Blanco, certainly the most famous and successful artist who ever lived in Bali, built his magnificent studio on top of a mountain overlooking the Campuan River. This flamboyant building, a unique blend of Balinese architecture and his native Spanish spirituality, houses an interesting collection of works from different periods. During his life it was visited daily by hundreds of people from all over the world. The artist, full of "Catalan charisma" earned himself the sobriquet "The Fabulous Blanco", an expression that certainly revealed his true talent.
