Different floor combinations. Designed by Oscar Niemeyer
The Ciccillo Matarazzo Pavilion, headquarters of the Bienal de São Paulo Foundation since 1957, is the stage of one of the world's most important art exhibitions: the Bienal de São Paulo. Designed by the Architect Oscar Niemeyer, the pavilion is a heritage-listed building (compresp, condephaat and iphan) under trust to the Bienal Foundation through a loan-for-use agreement with City Hall.
Recognizing the transformative potential of culture-based products and services, the Bienal de São Paulo Foundation makes its premises available for events connected with the creative economy—the fine arts, cinema, television, literature and publications, fashion, design, technology, tourism, sports, antiquities, gastronomy, advertising, and architecture, among other spheres of activity.
