RIO'S MOMA: Rio's Museum of Modern Art was founded in 1948 by a group of art enthusiasts headed by Raimundo Castro Maia. It is impossible to miss the impressive main building, designed by architect Affonso Reidy. It stands right in the heart of Flamengo Park, surrounded by gardens planned by Brazil's quintessential landscape designer Burle Marx. MAM has a very active role in Rio's cultural scene, and influenced several generations of Brazilian artists. RIO'S MUSEUM OF FINE ARTS: Located in an impressive French Renaissance style building (1908) across from the Municipal Theater. The permanent collection has over 10, 000 paintings and works of art by Brazilian artists from late XVII century to present. There are also international pieces, and the African collection is particularly interesting. In addition to the permanent collection, this museum has been the stage for major exhibitions in Rio lately, including Rodin, MirĂ³ and Dali.
