Tips from locals
No other modern artist is as associated with Colombia as Botero. A short walk and worth a visit.
Museo Botero is an art museum located in the La Candelaria district of Bogota, Colombia. The museum was founded in 2003, following a major bequest from Ferdinand Botero in 2000. Today, it houses one of Latin America’s foremost art collections and receives around half a million visitors each year.
Founded in 2000, this museum is home to one of Latin America’s most important art collections. The museum was created after Fernando Botero donated hundreds of his works to the Banco de la República de Colombia with the promise that they would be displayed in a free museum for everyone to see. In addition to his own pieces, included in the donation were works by Monet, Picasso, and other world-famous artists. Take a free tour or get the audio guide (not free).
