The Latin American Art Museum of Buenos Aires (
Created by
The museum design was made through an open call contest; 450 proposals from 45 countries were presented.[2] The selection was made by an international jury of architects, and the first prize was awarded to three young Argentinian architects: Gaston Atelman, Martin Fourcade and Alfredo Tapia.[citation needed] The building project was executed by AFT Architects, an Argentine architectural firm.
The mission of the MALBA is to collect, preserve, research and promote Latin American art from the onset of the 20th century to the present. This involves educating the public about Latin American artists, and the diversity of cultural and artistic holdings in this region.
