Oscar Niemeyer Museum of Modern Art

The Oscar Niemeyer Museum of Contemporary Art is located in Niteroi, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The museum building was built in 1996 in the avant-garde style. This amazing structure amazes with an unusual architectural solution and resembles an alien spacecraft hovering over the sea surface.

The galleries of the museum have a spiral shape.

It houses masterpieces of conceptual art: abstract metal and plastic constructions, modern paintings made in the form of windows overlooking Rio.

According to Oscar Niemeyer himself, samples of elegant functional architecture look great against the background of nature and do not need to be part of multi-million cities. This building became one of the leaders of the most unusual architectural projects in the world.
