About
The Museum of Art Miguel Urrutia, previously called Banco de la República Art Collection, is a building with two large rooms, each of 500 square meters, to house temporary exhibitions of international stature. The complex also includes the Gregorio Vásquez de Arce square, an area for children's workshops, and an auditorium with capacity for 160 people. The three-story construction, inaugurated in 2004, was designed by the Bogota architect Enrique Triana Uribe who, for this project, received the 2006 National Architecture Prize.

        Great free art museum
        It’s part of a series of three museums and a combined cafe (which is excellent). The art is ok and most of it done by the same artist. I believe it’s Fernando Botero. You have to like his taste.

        Great Museum
        A very good museum featuring a display of Botero paintings. Also some very good Modern artists. Fortunately you can take pictures.

        Museo de Arte
        The second floor of the museum was closed. That left a small mediocre collection of Colombian artists located on the first floor. The museum is connected to Museo Botero and Casa la Moned. Free admission

        Good Colombian art collection
        This museum is connected to Museum Botero and Casa de la Moneda (in January closed). It was free to enter and had wide collection of art works. Well worth a visit. Confusingly it has two names - MUMA and Bank of Republic Art Museum.

        Great to See
        Excellent to check out, especially if you're already visiting Museo de Botero. The collections are unique and each one is worth observing.

        Excellent Free Museum
        One of three interconnected museums all totally free to visit. Most people head for the Botero Nuseum, understandably so, but this one is interesting too and has dome lovely paintings and quirky sculptures, a mixture of the modern and historic, indigenous and colonial. Well worth a visit. A short walk, 2 or 3 minutes, from Plaza Bolivar

        Neat free museum
        The museum is reachable from inside the Botero Museum, so we just wandered over after finishing up at the Botero Museum. There is some pretty cool artwork here and it's not a huge museum, so you don't need to allocate a lot of time to it. I appreciated that it was free - and it wasn't super busy when we visited on a Monday mid-morning.

        Interesting and impressive
        Definitely worth a visit. We aren't the usual art exhibition experts but really enjoyed our visit at this museum. This guy made some interesting and impressive art.

        Fantastic history of Colombian art. Don't forget upstairs!
        What an exhaustive history of post-contact art in Colombia. From the colonial era, to the European influences and local evolutions of the 20th century. From conservative and classical to the wild and crazy, all under one roof. This is an old but remodeled building, so to see everything you may have to backtrack, go up, down, around, and up the spiral stairs. Yes, there are more galleries up there even if there are no signs saying so. I only deduct a star as some sections (in my opinion) are kind of uninspired- 19 century portraiture anyone? Anyhow, it's free, interesting, and part of a complex with the Museo Botero and Casa Moneda.

        Well worth a couple of hours of your time in Bogotá
        This showcase of Colombian artists and artists with links to the country makes for a perfect follow-up to a visit to the Museo Botero, as it also features works by said artist while shining the spotlight on such local classics as Camargo, Zamora, Mendoza, Figueroa and Santa María. There is also an interesting and varied selection of more modern Colombian art.

        right next to Botero Museum
        This art gallery is right next to the Botero and worth a visit for its eclectic collection of colonial excesses and works by contemporary artists.

        Modern Colombian art: limited overview
        After visiting the marvelous Botero museum nearby, this modern art collection is a bit disappointing, because it is not as comprehensive as the Botero. The overview of modern Colombian art is limited. Presentation of various modern Colombian artists like Santiago Delgado, Alejandro Obregon, Omar Rayo and Luis Caballero to name just a few is restricted in amount or lacking. Of Caballero there are some stunning sketches of male nudes. Still well worth a visit.

        must visit
        Great experience in the museum, tour guide Carlos is very knowledgeable. The creativity of the local people in terms of carving, waxing, and use of gold is fascinating.
