A 50-foot green marble sculpture (15.24 meters)
serves as a decorative gate into the museum. The
sculpture is modeled after Blancos own
signature, and the height (in meters) represents
his birthday, (September 15) and is the biggest
signature in the world. Don Antonio Blanco is
often called "The Dali of Bali", but most of his
artworks are stricken may be not by it techniques
but its elegance of frames and their harmonious
match with the picture. As you enter, youll
notice golden Balinese dancers at each corner of
the roof, and the goddess Saraswati (the Hindu
goddess of knowledge, a favorite muse of
Blancos) topping off the whole building.

Gracias a la vida

Thanks to life that has given me so much It gave
me two eyes that when opened Can perfectly
distinguish black from white And the sky so high
with its starry scape   Thanks to life that has
given me so much It has given me sounds and the
alphabet With all the words I can think and
say Mother, friend, brother   Thanks to life that
has given me so much It has given me the step of
my feet With which I walk city streets and
country sides Beaches, mountains and
plains   Thanks to life that has given me so
much You gave me my heart which beats When I look
at the result of the human being When I see all
the good, so far from the bad When I see deep
into your clear eyes   Thanks to life that has
given me so much It has given me laughter and it
has given me tears So I can distinguish between
joy and pain The two materials that form my
song And your song, is the same song   Thanks to
life that has given me so much
