Buenos Aires' Museum of Fine Art houses some great art work with a lot of well-known artists. The main floor is where they keep art from around the world from all different time periods. They have older Euoprean art, including some paitnings from my favorite Spanish artist, Goya, as well as impressionist pieces from artists like Monet and Degas. There are sculptures from Rodin and even a painting by Jackson Pollock. The upper floor houses Argentine art--it is cool to see the history of Argentina through its artists. This museum has a very laid-back Latin feeling. The building isn't air-conditioned and there are minumal security precautions. Some of the security guards walk around, but many can be found dozing off in a chair in the corner.
