Best 20th-Century Latin American Collection

The Blanton Museum of Art

With more than 1,600 pieces of Latin American art, it's no exaggeration to say that the museum on the UT campus has one of the finest collections in the nation. Aside from the sheer beauty of the art itself, 20th century themes add a poignant sense of urgency to the impressive collection. From Fernando Botero's iconical Santa Rosa de Lima Según Vásquez to Clorindo Testa's more abstract Sin Título, these works are as provocative as they are inspiring.
