Triennale di Milano

6 Viale Emilio Alemagna, Milano, Lombardia

Description

The Triennale di Milano is a design and art museum in the Parco Sempione in Milan. It is housed in the Palazzo dell’Arte built in 1933 as the headquarters of the International Exhibition of Decorative Arts. The Milan Triennial, an international exhibition of art and design, has been held there at regular intervals since. The museum hosts temporary artist exhibitions and art installations.

Access & Transport

The museum is in the western part of Sempione Park. Bus 61 stops next to it and the following tram stations are all within 5 mins' walk: 'Via Pagano Via Canova' (1, 10), 'Via Venti Settembre' (1, 19), 'P.za Virgilio' (1, 19) and Milano Cardona (Trains and metro 1).

Instructions & Recommendations

We recommend combining this activity with a visit of Sempione Park and Sforza Castle. Santa Maria delle Grazie with Da Vinci's Last Super painting is also only 10mins' walk away.

Meta review

Mixed online reviews for this museum and the experience certainly depends on the nature of the current exhibitions. Many find what they have seen thought provoking and generally enjoyable but a very large percentage was disappointed by the overall quality AND quantity, feeling that it was completely overpriced and certainly not to the level one would expect in a city that bills itself as a fashion and design capital.

Environmental & Social

Some use of electricity (for lighting, a/c, heating). Socially slightly positive as it helps spread culture and the arts

Conclusion

Not a priority for those with only a few days in Milan, except for modern & contemporary art fans that is. If you have been around most other cultural activities then by all means this museum is worth discovering - just keep your expectations in check.

Key positive

Key negative

Uneven quality of exhibitions
