Pernambuco Contemporary Art Museum, Contemporary art museum in Olinda, Brazil.
The Pernambuco Contemporary Art Museum occupies a three-story building with seven exhibition rooms displaying paintings, sculptures, installations, and multimedia works by Brazilian and international artists. The collection presents a diverse range of contemporary art forms across various media and styles.
The building was established as the International Club of Recife in the mid-19th century and later served as city hall from the 1930s through the 1960s. This transformation reflects the changing roles of the site within the city's development.
The museum focuses on contemporary Brazilian artistic expressions and regularly presents exhibitions that connect with local artistic movements and creative practices.
The museum provides audio descriptions for approximately 100 artworks to support visitors with visual impairments. These supplementary resources make the exhibition more accessible and informative for all visitors.
Through the MAMAM Multiples Project, the museum offers limited edition artworks at reduced prices. This gives visitors an opportunity to acquire contemporary art pieces at more affordable costs.
