  • This is an oasis in the middle of Santiago. With a well curated number of exhibitions, all different in nature. Well worth pausing and spending 45 mins relaxing away from the noise outside. Very...

  • It is so small and one of the expositions is intended to show the archeology. I consider that the archeology of this country has too much to show.

  • There seems to be a lot of empty space here- maybe it's hard to find enough interesting art to fill the various floors? I believe each exhibition is unique, ie no permanent collection on display...

  • Modern art isn't my favorite flavor but here were some really cool things that I appreciated and would recommend seeing in person if you get the chance. The bottom floor was a series of very abstract interpretation of vases that reminded me of the early days of using photoshop, going crazy with the blurry brush rotating objects to watch them twist and untwist...then there were 3 sculptures ranging from 3-6' that looked to be plaster that was then spray painted. I'll let someone else post the pictures of that art, maybe they appreciated then more.
  • I found the exhibition kind of dull and a bit small to be honest. But hey, it's only 1000 pesos and if you've got 15 minutes to kill - why not? But I wouldn't go out of your way just to visit the museum. It's ok if you happen to be in the area and just passing by.
  • I think it’s pretty nice, the museums in Santiago are really small. This one is small as well but they have really nice and free postcards if you get the ticket.
  • Loved this place. Beautiful exhibition and artists curatorship.
  • As ever, I always find exhibits to entertain me in modern art museums and this didn't disappoint. The entrance fee is very cheap $1000 CP, and the exhibitions are a combination of video art, paintings and sculptures. One item that caught my eye was the grand piano on spiders legs!!! The exhibitions are on split levels, on the top level is a darkened room with more interesting video presentations.
