Memorial dos Povos Indígenas

Memorial dos Povos Indígenas Review

Another Niemeyer project, this cylindrical structure was inspired by the huts built by the Bororo people. A spiraling ramp leads to a central plaza where collections of indigenous crafts are displayed. Highlights among the items: pottery, headdresses, and feather ornaments made by the Kayapó, the Xavante, and other indigenous peoples.
