If you've been to the Fortabat Collection in Puerto Madero you know the name of the founder of this splendid art museum, designed by a major international architect and containing the private collection of its benefactor.

Maria Amalia Lacroze de Fortabat died today. One of Argentina's wealthiest citizens, she was a major patron of the arts whose generosity and encouragement have done a great deal to advance culture and the arts in Argentina.
 
There's a photo spread on both Amalita and her funeral in HOLA! this week.

Don't know much about Amalia but her museum is incredible, my favorite in BA. It is such a stunning building as well.
