Modern Art Gallery, Milan

16 Via Palestro, Milano, Lombardia

Description

The Galleria d'Arte Moderna of Milan ("GAM") houses Italian and European works from the 18th to the 20th centuries and arguably the most important Lombard collection of 19th-century art. It is located inside the 18th century Neo-classical Villa Reale. Besides the European paintings and sculptures, there is also a collection of oriental art called the "Grassi Collection".

Access & Transport

The museum is next to the Palestro metro station (1), on the southern edge of the Indro Montanelli Garden. Metro Turati (3) is only 300m away as well.

Instructions & Recommendations

It is recommended to book the ticket online at the following link: https://museicivicimilano.vivaticket.it Some temporary exhibitions have a surcharge of €5 / pers.

Meta review

Art fans rate the museum highly, possibly the best one in the city for some, though not everybody agrees obviously. It is not just about paintings, and sculptures are clearly one of the highlights, alongside the building itself with very green views over the park. The staff is not getting only positive comments...

Environmental & Social

No environmental data available. Some environment impact to run the museum (mostly electricity). Positive from a social perspective as it helps spread culture and the arts

Conclusion

Unlike some of the top-tier international museum, GAM is more focused and, in many ways, less overwhelming, so that visitors can take their time enjoying the artwork whilst still covering all or most of the rooms. Location and price are good as well; highly recommended for art enthusiasts.
