Museum Spring is an event organized by the Brazilian Museum Institute to promote museums in Brazil.
This year, the City Museum in Governador Valadares hosts “Views of Ibituruna.”
Photographers Fábio Monteiro and Ana Flávia Tragino created the exhibit. It stays open until the 30th of this month.
Each year, the Institute picks a theme. This sparks discussion and events. The current exhibit takes cues from Katsushika Hokusai’s “Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji.”
The photos showcase varied views of Ibituruna Peak.
Fábio and Ana Flávia selected shots from multiple areas. They focus on Valadares’ cherished landmark.
The aim is to celebrate its natural beauty and call for its conservation. The museum opens from 8 AM to 6 PM, Monday to Friday.
It’s located on Prudente de Morais Street, 711, Downtown.
