    This is one of the most strange museums I've ever seen. They have a big semi sphere and looks like they don't know how to use that space inside. I've been there several times. Usually the expositions are small for this size of the building, there are problems with the parking (no parking nearby). They could be much better, I believe.

    The architecture of this museum is incredible was designed by the architect Oscar Niemeyer who designed all the “Plano Piloto Brasilia”. This Museum hosts expositions from local and international artists such as paintings and photography.

    Beautiful inside and outside. The building is used for projections sometimes. So check out their website. The exhibitions are always changing. But it's a must see no matter what. It's usually free admission.

    It worths the visit. Although the place is not well maintained, it is a remarkable example of Brazilian modern architecture. Keep an eye for on-site hawkers and beggars (unfortunately). The place is hot, so don't forget your bottle of water

  • 4/5 Jason B. 8 years ago on Google
    Though the exhibit I saw inside was basic, this building is a must see because of its iconic architecture. Take time to revel in the space inside and under the curving passageway on the exterior of the building. True aesthetic brilliance.

  • 4/5 Luiz F. 1 year ago on Google
