Medellín Museum of Modern Art, Art museum in Ciudad del Río district, Medellín, Colombia.
The Medellín Museum of Modern Art consists of stacked architectural boxes creating multiple terraces with both interior and exterior circulation paths.
Founded in 1978, the museum transformed a former steel factory site into a cultural complex within the Ciudad del Río urban development project.
The museum houses numerous artworks by Medellín-born artist Débora Arango and presents rotating exhibitions of contemporary Latin American art throughout the year.
The museum provides wheelchair accessibility, multiple exhibition spaces across different levels, and connects directly to an adjacent public park.
The building design incorporates brick structures inspired by local barrios, allowing future expansions through additional tents, kiosks, and organic construction.
