The Niterói Contemporary Art Museum (Museu de Arte Contemporânea de Niterói) in Niterói, Brazil, is a striking architectural masterpiece designed by the renowned Brazilian architect Oscar Niemeyer. Completed in 1996, the museum is perched on a cliffside, offering stunning views of Guanabara Bay and the city of Rio de Janeiro. Its futuristic, saucer-like design, set against the natural landscape, makes it an iconic landmark. The museum houses a diverse collection of contemporary art and serves as a cultural hub, hosting various exhibitions, events, and educational programs.
