Mexico's Tamayo Contemporary Art Museum (Spanish: Museo Tamayo de Arte Contemporáneo), located on Paseo de la Reforma, inMexico City, was opened in 1981 as a repository for the collection that Rufino Tamayo and his wife Olga acquired during their lifetimes and ultimately gifted to the nation. The architect was Teodoro González de León, a renowned Mexican architect.
There are plans to create a new building for the museum. In 2009 an architecture competition was won by Bjarke Ingels Group in colaboration with Rojkind Arquitectos. The cross-shaped building will occupy a steep hillsidein Atizapan , overlooking the city, and incorporate a large viewing platform on the roof.[1]
