The finest european art collection in Southern Hemisphere. Raphael, Rubens, Goya, Van Gogh, Monet, Cézanne, Matisse, Degas, Modigliani, Renoir, Picasso... And my personal favorite, Toulouse-Lautrec.

If you reach this museum, most likely you'll find so many activities, art collections, and dancing groups at the street! 🎻🎭💃🏻

Check out the impressive selection of antiques at the Sunday market. After, you can cross the street and visit the handicrafts market and stop for some good street food sold among the artisan booths. Read more

Free on tuesday! Incredible paintings of Picasso, Van Gogh, Degas, Portinari, Toulouse-Lautrec, Gaugin, Modigliani, Rafaello, Tiziano, Renoir, Matisse, etc.

The top floor has an interesting display of the museum's collection. It's counter intuitive to have to walk around the paintings to read their info, though.
Diego SartoriJanuary 9, 2014
Small museum with interesting pieces. Works from many Dutch artists from Van Gogh, Frans Post, Salomon van Ruysdael to a self-portrait of Rembrandt! It's like a compact Rijksmuseum.
Agatha KorbusAugust 27, 2013
Contextually great Romanticism exhibition on the second floor featuring Van Gogh, Gauguin, Renoir, El Greco, Toulouse-Lautrec, Vuillard, Delacroix, Manet, Monet, Cezanne, Degas and much more.

Worth checking out if you’re visiting the city. An eclectic mix of styles and mediums presented side by side.

Also known as MASP, this art museum is home to Latin American, Western, and the best Brazilian art. Also find some Degas, Delacroix, Tintoretto, and Van Gogh in here. Museum closed on Mondays.

It was built in 1968. Designed by the Italian modernist architect Lina Bo Bardi. His famous columns, however, were painted red just in 1990 in a partnership with the Suvinil paint company.

After living in Brazil for ten plus years. I would frequent this museum. Excellent collections.
Travel + LeisureAugust 30, 2012
This 1968 Modernist building houses one of the most comprehensive Western art collections (ranging from Botticelli to Diego Rivera) in the Southern Hemisphere.
Emilio CMay 11, 2015
This is the most important museum in Sao Paulo. It's pretty small, though, if you're used to museums in the USA.
Kate FurmanMay 31, 2016
There are two sub-basements that are part of the museum. Don't miss that part.
Sica HelenoAugust 16, 2012
Great Museum! I was there during a Modigliani exibition! Top Top.
Luma GuarçoniJuly 15, 2014
Great minimalist and conceptual artworks in display. From Richard Serra, to Carl Andre, to Vitto Acconci. First floor
Enzo MartinelliJune 6, 2015
Great collection of European painters too
Antonio I FlorezAugust 27, 2014
There is only one floor, but the visit can take at least two hours. Better to go on Tuesdays, it's free.
Juan MarcDecember 5, 2017
Modern art Expositions seem a bit dated. Have seen much more impacting stuff elsewhere in SP
Billy ComfortDecember 22, 2011
Always interesting international and Brazilian exhibitions and well-worth checking back regularly for new stuff!
Humberto GarciaDecember 11, 2019
Just one big exposition, the first floor was closed, but still pretty good
MagicSeptember 3, 2014
Good organization of the collection. You can always learn visiting this place
AndréMay 19, 2012
Excelent restaurant, but no options for a quick snack. The small coffee shop downstairs only serves coffee and cookies, but no savory goods.
Beto CardosoMay 25, 2013
The Triumph of Detail: Portraits • Goya's “Retrato da Condessa de Casa das Flores” (1790–1797) is one of the masterpieces • until June 9th, 2013
André BuzzuliniFebruary 14, 2013
Must-see museum of the city. Great collection.

Alice RandallMay 12, 2013
Small but good permanent collection.
George John PalisocAugust 28, 2010
You would not expect that they got a huge collection from Van Gogh & Rodin. This place is not to be missed.
Sam CarechoApril 19, 2014

Probably the worst art museum ever. Skip it and go to Itau Cultural instead. Way better!
