Museo de Artes Visuales

This dazzling museum of contemporary art displays the combined private holdings of Chilean industrial moguls Manuel Santa Cruz and Hugo Yaconi, and has one of Chile's finest collections of contemporary Chilean art. The building itself is a masterpiece: six gallery levels float into each other in surprising ways. The wood floors and Plexiglas-sided stairways create an open and airy space where you might see—depending on what's on display when you visit—paintings and sculptures by Roberto Matta, Arturo Duclos, Gonzalo Cienfuegos, Roser Bru, José Balmes, and Eugenio Dittborn, among others.
