Ibirapuera Parque de Sao Paulo & Modern Art Museum
Casual Sunday stroll through the park, or a vicious game of jogger dodge ball? Welcome to Parque Iberapuera, Sao Paulo’s equivalent of Central Park. It’s a Paulista hot spot, jam packed with over 20,000 visitors daily, and over 160,000 visitors every Sunday (oopsie went on a Sunday)! We also stumbled directly into the Sao Paulo International Marathon that same day. Talk about some heavy foot traffic. It felt like being in Disney World during Christmas break.
Also, in the middle of Iberapuera is the Modern Art Museum, an AdverBarbie favorite. It has pretty much the same vibe as Miami’s Art Basil, with wide-open layouts and collection displays. We noticed a definite eco-green premise to many of the pieces. There is an urgency inside many of the modern artists to reflect the current eco-crisis facing our planet. Their work serves not only as a creative outlet, but also as a way to inform and provoke action among the masses.
