10From the architect MAAT is an outward-looking
museum located on the banks of the Tagus in
Belém, the district from where the Portuguese
great explorers set off. Proposing a new
relationship with the river and the wider world,
the kunsthalle is a powerful yet sensitive and
low-slung building that explores the convergence
of contemporary art, architecture and technology

is designed to allow visitors to walk over, under
and through the building that sits beneath a
gently expressed arch one of the oldest forms
in western architecture
