The world famous fresco ceiling paintings in the Galeria Pacifico shopping mall in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Shopping mall and tourist attraction Galerias Pacifico, 737 Calle Florida, between Avenida Cordoba and Viamonte, in the central shopping district of Buenos Aires, Argentina. Architects: Francisco Seeber and Emilio Bunge. In 1989 the building was declared a National Historical Monument. Later it was delivered to Galerias Pacifico S A and on May 18 1992 the Shopping and Cultural Center was opened. Even more impressive than the top brand stores inside are the vaulted ceilings painted in 1945 by five great muralists Antonio Bernini, Juan Carlos Castangino, Manuel Colmiero, Lino Spilimbergo, and Demetrio Urruchúa. The paintings cover most of the 450m2 central dome. The murals were restored in 1978 under Antonio Berni's direction and again in 1991 by an Argentine-Mexican group.
