Lonely Planet review for Museu de Arte Moderna
At the north end of Parque do Flamengo, the Museu de Arte Moderna is immediately recognizable by the striking postmodern edifice designed by Alfonso Eduardo Reidy. The landscaping by Burle Marx is no less impressive. After a devastating fire in 1978 that consumed 90% of its collection, the museum is finally back on its feet and now houses 11,000 permanent works, including pieces by Brazilian artists Bruno Giorgi, Emiliano Di Cavalcanti and Maria Martins. You’ll find excellent photography and design exhibits, and the cinema hosts regular film festivals throughout the year.
