Unesco has chosen the Pampulha Complex as a historical heritage of humanity, since it shows the diversity and cultural richness of Minas Gerais, which has highlighted the jewels of the colonial period and the modern architecture dating from the 1940s when it was commanded by Juscelino Kubitschek (1902) -1976). The modern set of Pampulha was designed to create a total work of art, integrating the artistic pieces to the buildings and those to the landscape, presenting the first four works signed by Niemeyer and the gardens planned by the landscape artist Roberto Burle Marx (1909-1994), panels With tiles by the painter Cândido Portinari (1903-1962) and sculptures by renowned artists such as Alfredo Ceschiatti (1918-1989), Augusti Zamoyski (1893-1970) and José Alves Pedrosa (1915-2002).
