Things to do in Belo Horizonte, State of Minas Gerais (MG): The Best Art Galleries

June 20, 2021 Janette Largent

The name says it all: Belo Horizonte, or “beautiful horizon,” has stunning views of surrounding mountains. Built as a planned city about a century ago, its tree-lined streets are laid out in a tidy grid. Explore the modern Brazilian architecture of the Pampulha neighborhood, relax in Mangabeiras Park or indulge in some epic retail therapy. Refresh with a cachaça rum cocktail, or tuck into a sumptuous pile of meat at a traditional Brazilian barbecue restaurant.

I visited during the Christmas and New Year holidays 2019/2020 and was extremely impressed by the photo exhibit, which includes photos from the 1920´s to the 1950´s from Diamantina, MG. I believe it runs through early February, 2020 The documentary was excellent. A wonderful socio-cultural view of the early 20th century in MG.

The Centro Cultural Banco do Brasil Belo Horizonte occupies a building from 1930, fully renovated in 2009, with six floors and 12 thousand square meters of constructed area - 8 thousand square meters open to the public and 4 million square feet that will be open in a next phase of reformations - which puts the CCBB BH amongst the greatest cultural centers of Brazil. Theatre with seating capacity of 264 people, a multipurpose room for audiovisual, a library and two cafeterias fill the neoclassical architecture, as well as large exhibition galleries. Visits to the building and the exhibits are free. Tickets for theater performances of dance and music cost R$ 10 (full) and R$ 5 (half). Open Wednesday to Monday from 9am to 21pm.

The CCBBB is located in a lovely building. I saw the Man Ray exhibit, which I believe runs to about early March 2020. While not Brazilian, it is a great show, complemented by a long but extremely interesting documentary, and on the level of anything you will find in New York City or the major cities of Europe. Since I was there over the 2009/2020 holidays, not much else was going on, but well worth the visit.
