Museum
Amalia Lacroze de Fortabat Art Collection
Olga Cossettini 141, C1107 Cdad. Autónoma de Buenos Aires
Modernist museum with sun-tracking aluminum awnings and a collection spanning Chagall to Turner.
This guide to the Amalia Lacroze de Fortabat Art Collection in Buenos Aires opens on the day its roof of aluminum awnings first tilted open to chase the sun, a feature its founder insisted on. You'll meet Amalia Lacroze de Fortabat, who ran the cement empire Loma Negra after her husband's death in 1976 and sold her stake for over a billion dollars in 2005, and hear about records that surfaced years later in the Swiss Leaks, naming her among account holders at an HSBC branch in Geneva. Her representatives said the money was declared and the taxes paid.
