The Oscar Niemeyer Popular Theater in Niterói, Brazil, inaugurated in 2007, is pictured. Its shape evokes that of a wave. It is part of the “Niemeyer Way”, a group of seven buildings designed by Niemeyer. Oscar Niemeyer is one of Brazil's most famous architects. He belongs to the International Style movement. He is best known for building Brazil's capital Brasilia with urban planner Lúcio Costa, inaugurated in 1960. Niteroi, across Guanabara Bay from Rio de Janeiro, is the second city in the world with the most Niemeyer buildings, after Brasilia.
