Museo de Esculturas Luis Perlotti

The Museo de Esculturas Luis Perlotti is an art museum in the Caballito district housing a collection of over 1600 pieces in wood, marble, bronze, ceramics, and reconstituted stone. The works occupy multiple floors, presenting a range of sculptural techniques and approaches across different materials.

Sculptor Luis Perlotti purchased the property in 1948 and converted it into a working studio and exhibition space. The building became a museum after his donation to the City of Buenos Aires and received a major renovation in the 2000s.

The museum displays works by Argentine sculptors from different periods alongside the founder's creations, showing how local artists shaped their medium over time. This collection reflects the regional art scene and the connections between generations of makers working in the city.

The museum occupies multiple floors, so allow adequate time to explore all the spaces at your own pace. The galleries are well organized and easy to navigate without feeling rushed.

The building still operates as a conservation workshop alongside the museum, where restoration work is carried out on the collection. Visitors can sometimes observe specialists caring for and maintaining the sculptures.
