The foundation Indonesian collection numbered over 3000 artefacts at the time when The Asia and Pacific Museum in Warsaw was established. The collection, regularly complemented, is still the largest in the Museum and significant in the European scale. Now it consists of nearly 5000 objects from Java, Bali, Sumatra, Sulawesi, Kalimantan, Timor, Madura, Sumba, Flores, Nias and the Moluccas. Especially valuable are textiles, side arms (including about 150 kerises - Malay daggers), theatre puppets, masks of the wayang topeng theatre, musical instruments. The ancient sculpture is represented by East

Javanese stone steles with depictions of Hindu deities (8th-15th cent.) and also fragments

of terracotta sculptures from the Majapahit period (14th-15th cent.). The art of tribal

societies is represented by objects related to Bataks from Sumatra and Dayaks

from Kalimantan. Museum has also the collection of paintings and drawings
of contemporary Indonesian artists, i.e. Affandi, S. Sudjojono, Hendra Gunawan, Batara Lubis, Mochtar Apin, Srihadi Sudarsono, Nyoman Gunarsa, as well as some traditional Balinese paintings.
