An amazing collection of giant statues or figures commemorating the deity Pachamama who I read as a Goddess of corn and/or fertility, making her the equivalent of the ancient European/Middle Eastern Goddess Ceres. The park and statues are all the work of one man, Hector Cruz and, though criticized by some reviewers as being poor art I think their principal attribute is their striking originality, variety and 'otherness'. On this basis they most definitely rank as art. The Good/Bad distinction is very subjective but, if I had a big sunny garden I would gladly give one of the figures pride of place, so yes, good art.How closely they represent the ancient peoples' imaginings of the Goddess and how much they are the product of Cruz's own artistic imagination is difficult for a non-specialist to determine, but if you are passing from the Quilmes direction to central Argentina by Ruta 307, take an hour to judge them for yourself. They are certainly memorable and I can bring many to mind without referring to my photographs.The small museum is of passing interest and there are some worthwhile souvenirs in the form of dishes and bowls made and signed by Cruz which are worth a place on your shelf.One interesting thing, I asked the curator if he could see a connection between Pachamama and the Virgin Mary. He said "Yes, we are all Catholics and I have no problem in worshipping both Goddesses because they are the same".

Our guide drove us an hour each way from Cafayate to see this museum. It is definitely worthwhile and indicative of the indians of the area. The stonework of the buildings and grounds is very unusual. The museum features the art of the creator of the museum, Hector Cruz. It has a delightful store, and one of the girls who works there took us to see his studio.

The buildings are in fact something of an artwork in themselves and contain interesting information about the geology and pre-history of the area as well as a gallery of the artwork of the creator of the property (Cruz).Much of the artwork is inspired by the heritage of the area and clearly the author of it all is a very talented man and this is the product of many years dedicated work. Most of the exhibits have english as well as spanish captions but the guided tour is in spanish only.The shop also has much more to commend it that most of the craft work we have seen elsewhere. Overall if you are in the area you should see it.

In this times of revalorization of the Indigenous Art (meaning art from the original inhabitants of the Americas) this is a great place to visit.It is a cultural reference about the local people. But it is also an artistic reference that no-one should skip.The creator of the museum and principal artist is Mr. Héctor Cruz. As a native, he was sucessful to reflect the cultural heritage of his ancestors. He is a scuplter, principally, as well as painter. He composed from scratch, the mininful sculptures and art of the museum. He was autodidact, lernt by doing, and it seems, he was born with great talent.In his museum you can live, see and understand the memories of rituals to honour the earth, the Gods and milenary mistic, the geology of the region, the nature of the region and how local native indigenous used to live at home and in community.This museum is the reflex of the 35 years work of this man, who wants us to understand and value in the present the cultures that give the spirit to this land.I clasify this for friends, but keep in mind, that you'll only enjoy this if you open your mind and heart to the forgoten and and now alive past heritage, so it can be enjoyed in any situation when this condition is complied.

The museum is focused on all of the aspects of the aboriginal culture.It is made up of two geology and anthropology rooms and has two more rooms whith tapestries, paintings and sculptures.The large backyard of the museum its full of huge statues made out of stone and representing divinities worshipping Pachamama.

This attraction is essentially the work of an artist called Hector Cruz who is clearly independently wealthy enough to indulge himself in this folly. There is a small part dedicated to the local geology and history of the Quilmes people, but its fairly inconsequential in the grand scheme of the complex. The art is, for the most part, very poor, and you are just left wondering who would want to come to visit this bizarre installation masquerading as sculpture / reinterpreted tribal art. The scale is peculiar - as if they are expecting coach loads of kids to come and visit and look at the patterns he has made reinterpreting the Quilmes patterns. When we visited, we were the only two people, and had to suffer the slightly awkward moment of being taken by the curator to the 'special' rooms to see Cruz's artworks as we were attempting to leave and get on our way.It seems that this 'gallery / sculpture park' is intended to bring some Bilbao-effect to Pachamama. Cruz has plans for a 300 person hotel adjacent, but it looks like this will never see the light of day, particularly if this is the supposed highlight. The quality of construction is sub-standard and although I understand that this is less than 10 year old, a lot of it is already starting to look tatty, with stains where there have been leaks on the ceilings, for exampleOverall, I was reminded very much of the Cass Sculpture Gardens near Chichester, UK - also set up by a man with no real artistic eye but lots of money. Pachamama is quite a vapid place in a desolate town and there's no inherent reason to stop here, even if you are passing by on the way to Cafayate.The most exciting and interesting thing about our stop here was the massive tarantula tha we saw on the steps on the way in.

Visiting vineyards in Cafayate didn't really appeal to us so our excellent guide David Martinez (he posts as DavidSalta on the Salta forum) suggested a visit to the Museum of Pachamama an hour south of Cafayate. It is an unusual museum which has been built and run by local artist Hector Cruz. It has two geology / anthropology rooms are a little disappointing, and there is another room where tapestries, paintings and sculptures by Cruz are displayed which was much more interesting. What really makes the museum are the grounds and buildings of the museum which feature huge statues made of different colour stone and representing divinities worshipping Pachamama, accompanied by local cardons and cacti. It very much reminded us of the outdoor exhibits in the Gaudi park in Barcelona. The way the statues and buildings have been constructed is very well done with different colour pebbles/rocks making spectacular patterns - I'm no art buff but I found it really interesting. The museum also has a nicely stocked gift shop. It is a very unusual partly open air museum museum but if you enjoy traditional native art then this is well worth a visit

Lo que más me gustó es la multiplicidad de cosas que se pueden ver: pinturas, esculturas, telares, metalistería, maquetas etc, se encuentran además guias que brindan una visita al museo y explican muy bien todo y lo que más me sorprendió es que quién es el dueño del museo y que expone sus obras en el mismo es "autodidácta" según lo definió el guía, nunca estudió nada de arte. Para lo cual todo lo realizado en la infraestructura del museo es INCREIBLE !!!!
