More information on Museo Guayasamín
Located in a northern residential part of the city, this spacious building comprises the Casa, Fundacion Museo Oswaldo Guayasam a tribute to the best known Ecuadorian artist of modern times. This artist's work is a flag-bearer of social realism that has traveled the globe. The museum brings together several stages of his artistic career. A great portion of his pictorial work can be found here, including one of the most ambitious works in the world - the Capilla del Hombre, a temple which portrays the different facets of the tragedy of Latin-American man since the arrival of the Spanish in America. Currently, this work is still considered to be in process, as the artist was still working on it when he died in 1999.
