Meta review

Visitors enjoy the variety of art including works by several famous artists. They are also complimentary about the sobre but harmonious building design and the way the artwork is displayed although there are recurring negative comments about the lack of logical thread between the rooms (and sometimes within the rooms).

Environmental & Social

Some environment impact to run the museum (mostly electricity). Spreads culture and the arts.

Conclusion

Another gem for art lovers in Rome, this time without the crowds and focused on recent artistic movements and artists. There are many high-quality artworks with some resolutely modern display style, only let down by the lack of "thematic flow" which means a visit feels like a succession of rooms rather than a continuous and progressive experience.

Key positive

Plenty of famous artists exhibited

Not crowded

Key negative

Not central but has tram connectivity

Suitability

Accessible to visitors with reduced mobility. Younger children (<12-14) may not find the art gallery very interesting
