關於
Museu de Arte do Rio (MAR) (English: Art Museum of Rio) is an art museum in Rio de Janeiro which was inaugurated on 1 March 2013. It is maintained by a partnership between municipal public institutions and private initiatives.
The museum is part of a project to revitalize downtown Rio de Janeiro which began in 2009 through a municipal law that intended to invest up to R$8 billion real in the years following its passage.
The initiative is between local government and the Fundação Roberto Marinho, and does activities that involve fundraising, registering, research, preservation, and the creation of cultural goods to the community. The entire architectural plan was organized by Jacobsen Arquitetura, with ideas made by three main architects: Paulo Jacobsen, Bernardo Jacobsen, and Thiago Bernardes. The primary goal of the project was to establish a flow system where everything would function in an integrated and efficient manner, together with the creation of the Escola do Olhar, an arts and culture development space.
