			A woman looks at a sculpture by 
			Nadin Ospina titled "Idol with Skull" on exhibit at the Casa Daros 
			museum in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. This week local 
			officials aiming to transform Rio de Janeiro from a sleepy cultural 
			backwater into an art hotspot are inaugurating the new museum that draws on one of the world's premier collections of 
			contemporary Latin American art. Casa Daros, a 12,000-square-meter 
			(129,000-square-foot) exhibition space housed in a renovated 1866 
			mansion, will bring to Rio some of the around 1,200 pieces acquired 
			over the past 13 years by independently wealthy Zurich-based 
			collector Ruth Schmidheiny.
