MASP - São Paulo Museum of Art

Bet you missed my buildings.

Here's MASP - Museu de Arte de São Paulo, or the São Paulo Museum of Art. It's the most important museum on the most important street of the most important city of the most important state of Brazil.

Not to mention it's a beautifull building too. It's only sustented by the big red pilars outside, resulting in an open span of 242 feet.

And here's the zip, complete with pedia icons, splash and all.

Great work! It could be a Great Wonder in a latin-american scenario. Maybe add +2 culture in the city, increase happy citizens by 2.

Straczynki, will you be doing a Civilopedia entry for this museum? I know nothing about it...

Great work, as always!

Sure! According to the Brazilian embassy in London... (http://www.brazil.org.uk/page.php?cid=918)

"The MASP, designed by architect Lina Bo Bardi, was inaugurated in 1968 by Her Majesty, the Queen Elizabeth II. The building is suspended by two enormous pilars, bearing a 9,200 ton load and resulting in an open span of 74 metres. The Museum houses one of Brazil's richest art collections, being considered to be the most important European art collection in Latin America, containing works by great masters such as Degas, Renoir, Modigliani, Van Gogh, Bonnard, amongst others."

Thanks. Will use this.
