a building

i declare myself a complete ignorant about this topic, i really know nothing about buildings, geography and space, so i couldn't talk in an academic way of the subjet, just impressions of "something nice", and thinking about buildings the only one i remember i liked was one i visited in school, i really liked it and every time i visit that place again, a lot of memories came back. Is the building that now is the Artequin Museum. This building is now in Quinta Normal, and as i said, a Museum, but this building have a lot of history, this building was not even built in Chile, actually was in France in 1889.
The purpose of this building was represent Chile in a exposition made in France (i don't remember exactly about what was the exposition about). After this they unmade the building... weird, and then traveled in a ship to Valparaíso an then to Santiago.
Here in Santiago the building was a lot of things, always in the way of exposition and museums, but finally in 1992 officially the building is named Artequin.
The Museum is not a big deal at all, is full of photographic reproductions and videos of contemporary art. The thing that i like the most are the colors, the windows, the stairs, i don't know exactly, but is nice and full of memories
