This wonderful art museum celebrates the diversity of Latin American art and is largely the labor of one man’s passion for art. (MALBA stands for Museo del Arte Latinoamericano de Buenos Aires.) Eduardo F. Costantini spearheaded the creation of this institution, which is dedicated to showcasing the best of Latin American art. He donated many of the pieces of art from his own collection along with funds to support education and exhibition programs. Among the works in the permanent collection are paintings by Fernando Botero, Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera and Wifredo Lam. Three young Argentine architects were selected to design the building that houses the museum, and it has become a beloved gathering place for the city’s students and art lovers.
