Nestled within the historic Liceu de Artes e Ofícios de São Paulo building, the Pinacoteca of São Paulo is a stunning visual arts museum specializing in Brazilian artists from the past two centuries. Opened in 1905, it proudly holds the title of the oldest art museum in the city. The museum houses an impressive collection of around 1,900 artistic, bibliographic, and archival treasures.
Visitors can admire iconic works such as "São Paulo" by Tarsila do Amaral and "Mestizo" by Candido Portinari. In recent years, the museum has hosted significant exhibitions, including the captivating Ron Mueck showcase, which drew an impressive 402,000 visitors.
The Pinacoteca isn't just about what’s inside; outside, the Parque da Luz and the museum's garden offer a delightful experience with about 50 sculptures by contemporary artists like Victor Brecheret, Lasar Segall, and Amílcar de Castro. It's a perfect spot for a leisurely stroll, allowing you to soak in both art and nature. If you’re ever in São Paulo, this museum is a must-see destination that blends history, culture, and creativity seamlessly.
