Don't miss the Museu de Arte Naif, located just a few hundred yards from the Corcovado tram station. Sometimes known as primitive or ingénue art, its practitioners paint from the heart, portraying the daily life of common folks. Whatever they may lack of technical skill they more than make up for by the cheerful and expressive drawing and the vibrant use of color. Two of the largest naive art paintings in the world are on display here: one a massive 4*7m (13*23 ft). picture-postcard view of Rio, the other a mural that in portraying the history of Brazil since 1500 wraps itself around three of the mezzanine walls. The top floor is exclusively reserved for local artists. Visitors will recognize many popular scenes from Cariocas' daily life, such as a Flamengo-Fluminense soccer game at the Maracanã stadium, the samba parade, the beach, and the small neighborhood botequim cafes. A number of pieces are for sale, but be aware that "naive" doesn't mean cheap. Prices range from R$200 to R$6,000 (US$100-US$3,000/£54-£1,620). Expect to spend 45 minutes.
