La Capilla del Hombre is a cultural center and art museum located in Quito, Ecuador, dedicated to the work of the renowned Ecuadorian artist Oswaldo Guayasamín. Inaugurated in 2002, the museum serves as a tribute to the struggle and suffering of Latin America's indigenous peoples and marginalized groups. The architectural design of the building is itself a work of art, featuring elements that evoke pre-Columbian and indigenous styles. Inside, visitors can explore a vast collection of Guayasamín's powerful and emotive paintings, sculptures, and murals, which reflect themes of social justice, human rights, and solidarity.
