Villa Reale And Civica Galleria d’Arte Moderna

As the name suggests, this gallery is devoted to the Modern Age of Art and is both thought provoking and awe inspiring.  Displaying works from the 1800’s, there are countless inspiring works to view in the villa’s many rooms.  Built in the late 1700’s, this classic Italian villa houses the works of Grassi, Matisse, Morandi, Picasso, and Vismara, just to name a few.

Pinacoteca Ambrosiana

The Ambrosiana Gallery which was dedicated in the early 1600’s is located in the heart of the city, inspiring all who visit it to follow their own artistic dreams and find their muse.  The collection has swelled over the years because of many charitable contributions, and some of the highlights include a painting by da Vinci, and sculptures by the likes of Botticelli and Caravaggio.  Also located on the premise is the Ambrosiana library, which contains invaluable pieces of literature protected for all to view.

Civico Museo d’Arte Contemporanea

In the heart of the city, on the second floor of the Palazzo Reale, this art museum is showcased by great works by Picasso and Klee.  Separated into two main wings, the early 20th Century Italian art focusing on works by Balla, Fontana, Morandi, and others can be found here, along with the later 20th Century with works by Burri, Manzoni, and Vedova.

Triennale di Milano

The Decorative Arts Show was dedicated in the early 1900’s to be a centre for the development of decorative arts, and to promote Italian art in general.  Located inside the Palazzo dell’Arte and to the southern side of the Parco Sempione, this annual show became a permanent fixture showcasing many events and shows throughout the year.  There are also educational seminars and conferences held here, all promoting Italian art and culture.

Casa degli Omenoni

This magnificent house is nestled in the centre of Milan and was constructed in the mid-16th Century by the famous sculptor, Leoni.  This famous Milanese artist was also a collector, and his tastes included Correggio and Titian, now available for the public to view in this magnificent house that has been turned into a gallery.  The most prominent display in the house is the eight telamones that are crafted from solid stone, known to locals as the ‘Omenoni.’  Locals and tourists travel miles and miles to view these 8 striking sculptures, which make this gallery unique.
