Today I´m going to tell you about a building I really like. It is called Museum of Contemporary Art Niteroi in Brazil from the deceased architect Oscar niemeyer who died last year at 104 years old. He was one of the last exponents of modern movement. I admire him because he established an own architecture using modern concepts applies to his personal shapes. I like so much this bulding because it mixes architecture with art achieves so much beauty. I also like it because it looks like an U.F.O landed in the cliff. Well how the name says it is a museum used for diferent art exhibitions mixed with beautiful views of the landscape.
The first time I saw this building was last year in a documentary of Oscar Niemeyer, in the course History 2 of university. We was studying the modern movement in architecture.
Local people really like this building and the other constructions of Niemeyer, because He achieved them an own identity and world fame with his architecture.
The way how the building blends in with the surrounding architecture is only visually, through the interior views, because the near building are placed in opposite coasts.
See you in the next post!
