Museu de Arte de São Paulo (São Paulo Museum of Art)
Perched on the fashionable Avenida Paulista, this contemporary structure exhibits old European masters alongside surrealist and abstract Brazilian artworks. Its classical collection is the finest in Latin America. Among a veritable who’s who of old maestros are Van Gogh, Renoir, Picasso, Dali, and Toulouse-Lautrec. The building itself was designed by architect Lina Bo Bardi and is considered a classic of brutalist modern design.
