MAT (Museum of Art). Tigre, Argentina.
The MAT (Museum of art) stands on the banks of the Luján River, in Paseo Victorica, Tigre, near Buenos Aires, Argentina. The building, built next to the Tigre Hotel (demolished in 1940), was financed by Ernesto Tornquist and was designed by the architects Pablo Pater, Luis Dubois and the engineer Emilio Mitre and opened in 1912. Known as 'Tigre Club' (with the old hotel) as point of meeting of the richer persons of the time, in 1979 it was declared a National Historic Monument. Before it works as a casino and a restaurant, now, since 2006, it houses the museum of art.
