10 Best Museums To Visit in Buenos Aires | Condé Nast Traveler

"Born Oscar Agustín Alejandro Schulz Solar, Xul Solar's chosen name means "solar light"—so you know the guy is a little eccentric. For many years, he lived with his wife in a small apartment above the museum, and rented out the two apartments below to save up for the "museum to come." Flash forward decades later, and the museum showcases most of Solar’s mind-bending art, along with his letters, tarot cards, masks, personal belongings, and an extensive library, along with his own games and inventions. Through his paintings and sculptures, Solar crafted dystopian societies and alternate universes, where floating cities, snakes, and winged animals were the norm. It's all pretty trippy—so prepare for quite the ride." - Allie Lazar
