At this time, another institutions of art in Brazil were founded as MASP and others organizations in cinema and theater area. MAM is localized between Oca and Bienal Pavilio; Niemyer designed each one in 1954. Thus, in MAM there’s an atelier, library, galleries, stores with products of MAM, restaurants and an auditorium able to receive 200 people. In addition, the MAM offers courses, visits with guide and every year they plan an art exhibition. In 2012, for example, we had exhibitions as Goeldi in June until August, Wolfgang Tillmans in March until May, etc. The museum organize each two years a Brazilian art exhibition called “Panorama da Arte Brasileira”, an important and traditional exhibition in Brazil. MAM’s website hasn’t English version, but even if you know a little Portuguese language – or you want to try – it’s a good website to take a look at browse highlight collection. You can access by artists, cathegory, etc. Once more museum in Sao Paulo that can become “a place that you need to visit when come to Sao Paulo.” | |
