The Anita Schwartz Art Gallery in José Roberto Macedo Soares focuses on both propagation of Brazilian culture as well as amplification of dialogue between different cultures by promoting foreign artists. The long-established Artur Fidalgo Galeria de Arte Rio de Janeiro is a solitary escape from the constant bustle of the city. It features innovative and diverse works by both internationally-acclaimed and emerging artists. A Gentil Carioca aims at revitalizing artistic and political context by spreading Brazilian art. The Museu de Arte Contemporanea Niteroi is a saucer-shaped architectural wonder from the outside, and an art fanatic’s paradise featuring an enthralling array of artworks inside.

The fairly new Museu de Arte do Rio de Janeiro is split between three massive buildings, all connected by a gigantic rooftop. This museum features over 3000 pieces of art, which are rotated in its exhibitions throughout the year to offer something new each time. The oldest of all, Museo de Arte Moderna or the Museum of Modern Art Rio located in the northeastern Flamengo Park offers comprehensive collections of timeless Brazilian art in existence. It has been a contemporary of artistic movements that have shaken the country and gave birth to much of modern and contemporary artists populating the international circuit as of now.
