Museu Felícia Leirner, Art museum in Campos do Jordão, Brazil.
Museu Felícia Leirner is an art museum in Campos do Jordão set within grounds covered by roughly 85 bronze and metal sculptures. The works are spread across wide open spaces surrounded by Atlantic Forest vegetation, creating a natural setting for viewing the pieces.
The museum was founded to showcase the artistic legacy of a Polish-Brazilian sculptor and opened to the public in 1978. This founding represented an important moment in recognizing the artist's contributions within Brazil.
The name honors the sculptor whose works fill the grounds, reflecting her long career and artistic journey. Visitors walk among pieces that represent different stages of her creative life and artistic thinking.
The grounds are easy to explore on foot, with pathways connecting the sculptures and most areas accessible to visitors. It helps to check conditions beforehand since some sections may occasionally close for maintenance work.
The collection displays works from three distinct creative phases: figurative pieces, geometric abstractions, and organic forms. This arrangement allows visitors to follow the artist's evolution and shifts in artistic direction.
