There’s no fee to enter this fine museum housing significant works of the European masters from pre-Renaissance days to the present and a vast collection of 19th- and 20th-century Argentine sculptures and paintings.

This two storey classic building is full of treasures. On the ground floor there was room after room (24 in all) of Old Masters and Impressionists including Tintoretto, Titian, Pisano, Rembrandt, Reubens (x 2), Velazquez, Zurbaran, El Greco, Goya, Giordano, Sisley, Monet (x2), Manet, Renoir, Van Gough, Gauguin, Toulouse-Latrec, Degas (several of these) plus a good number of Rodin sculptures. Then there were the rooms of Argentinian painters whose names were, unfortunately, not previously known to me but the works by Pueyrredon, de Carcova, Lopez and others appealed. We did though encounter one act of total stupidity. They briefly closed off the room where there were a number of Degas paintings to hang from the ceiling a nondescript piece of modern art that covered a large part of the view of one of Degas’ paintings of dancers. Not sure who’s idea this was but it was certainly dumb. Of less appeal, however, were the modern art displays in the rooms on the first floor, mainly it appeared by Argentinian and other South American painters/artists. There was a special display in a large gallery at the back of the building of approximately 50 works by Jean Miro that were on loan from Madrid’s Reina Sofia. This was very good. Disappointingly there was no cafe, where you could have a coffee and take a break, or for that matter a shop. The latter is probably a wasted opportunity to recoup some costs.

This not-for-profit art museum and cultural center first opened its doors in 2001 with the mission to promote contemporary Latin American artists.

We saw the Arte Latinoamericano 1900-1970 exhibit. Colecion Malta. Very much enjoyed it. My husband and our two friends enjoyed the earlier pieces (chronological) of art more, whereas I enjoyed the art most from the middle to the end (1970). The later art was very contemporary and I love contemporary. Some of the artists I enjoyed the most were Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueoros, Antonio Berni, Claudio Tazzi, Romulo Maccio, Jorge de la Vega, Rogelio Polesello, Augusta Luis de Campos, Gregorio Vardanega, Yente, Roberto Matta, and Frida Khali (one piece). Many of these names were new to me, so I took note so I can study their works further on my own. The museum was busy, but pleasantly busy. Not so many people as to feel crowded, and most people were very respectful of your space when viewing a piece you wanted to spend more time with.

The concept behind the design of Killka was to create a first class cultural centre in the midst of natural landscapes, a place as important as Bodegas Salentein's winery itself..

Unique Museum with 9 installations of James Turrell, a real Highlight on the Calchaqui Valley loop. Take your time on this area, this place worths it!

Hard to get to but absolutely worth a visit. You must stay at the Estancia / Bodega Colome - not to be missed. In fact I don't know how you could see the famed skyspace at dusk and make it to anywhere else without staying here
