Lonely Planet review for Museo de Arte Contemporáneo

Better modern art may be found in various other collections around town, but this private museum wins the gold star for the most interesting building: a restored 19th-century mansion (only one of four left on the Prado) with a glass roof and stained-glass panels designed by Gustave Eiffel. The museum’s eclectic collection housed over three floors is a mix of reasonable – but not mind-blowing – Bolivian and international work. You might catch an interesting temporary exhibition.

    Worth the visit

    martha783 recommends this,

    This has a very convenient location that makes it an easy dropby experience. Interesting and strange collection. Many socialist/communist pieces -- creative and depressingly deceptive. Definitely makes statements and it's cool to visit a building Eiffle designed. You'll spend about an hour here.
