Overview: This museum is located in a new modern impressive building. It has a neat noise meter in front of the building that kind of resembles a traffic light. This museum houses a number of modern works of art, although the collection is small. The cost to visit in 0ctober 2008 was 15 pesos. Good: There were some nice works... more

I enjoyed this fine art museum geared to those who appreciate twentieth century Latin American Art. I saw splendid paintings by Diego Rivera,Frida Kahlo,Joaquin Torres-Garcia,Jose Cuneo,Tarsila Do Amaral,and Emilio Di Cavalcanti just to mention a few. Argentines well-represented were Antonio Berni,Xul Solar,and Alfredo Guttero. My favorite painting was Berni's "Chelsea Hotel". This museum is also a splendid work of architecture... more

MALBA was supposedly a free museum, however it costs 20 pesos per person. Worth 20 pesos for sure, but irritated over their claim of free admission. Very small. more
