Review:
The Museum of Latin American Art is the United States' only museum exclusively dedicated to contemporary and modern art works by Hispanic artists, originally opened in 1996 by Robert Gumbiner.
The museum is housed within a contemporary-style building in Long Beach's East Village Arts District that was renovated by Mexican architect Manuel Rosen and features four galleries and a sculpture garden dedicated to displaying rotating exhibitions by prominent and emerging Latin American contemporary artists. A permanent multimedia collection of more than 1,500 works is also showcased, including pieces by Dario Escobar, Liliana Porter, Pájaro, and Flavio Garciandia.
The Smithsonian-affiliated museum is open to the public for free each Sunday, with additional free hours offered on the fourth Thursday evening of each month.
