my fifteen favorites
During my trip to Brazil, I had the chance to visit INHOTIM, a fantastic botanic garden about one hour from Belo Horizonte.
INHOTIM was founded by business man Bernardo de Mello Pazin in 2002 and opened to the public in 2006.
This paradisaic plantation alone would make every journey worth the effort.
However, the lush gardens are just a rich setting for an exquisite collection of the most outstanding modern art: about 500 works by Brazilian and international artists alike (from about 30 different countries) are on display; the collection, however, consists of over 1.300 works pieces.
I'm introducing 15 of my favorite installations - and I do it in alphabetic order by the artists' names.
