The Museum of Modern Art of Bahia (Museu de Arte Moderna da Bahia, MAM-BA) is a modern art museum located in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. It is located within Solar do Unhão, a historical site dating to the 16th century, on the margin of the Bay of All Saints. The museum was founded in 1960 under the architect Lina Bo Bardi (1914-1992) and initially located in the foyer of the Castro Alves Theater; it moved to its present location in 1963. MAM-BA is one of twelve state museums linked to the Institute of Artistic and Cultural Heritage (IPAC), an authority of the Department of Culture of the State of Bahia.[2][3]
The collection of MAM-BA is noted for paintings, sculptures, photographs, and drawings by artists such as Tarsila do Amaral, Portinari, Flávio de Carvalho, Di Cavalcanti, Rubem Valentim, Pancetti, Carybé, Mário Cravo Neto, and Sante Scaldaferri [pt]. MAM-BA has eight exhibition rooms; a theater; a library; a technical space to house conservation, restoration, and museology; and an art workshop that offers open courses of painting, engraving techniques, ceramics, drawing, handmade paper, and sculpture to the community.[2][3]
