Introduction

Istituzione Galleria d'Arte Moderna di Bologna holds a fund of over 5,000 works, more than 800 of which are preserved at the Museo Morandi, repository of a specific collection of the utmost importance dedicated to the master from Bologna.

The collections are divided into Historical and Contemporary collections, according to a periodization taking 1945 as discriminating date.

A selection of the collection is open to the public in the permanent exhibition area in MAMbo’s first floor; it undergoes a periodical turnover according to specific thematic articulations.

Most of the works, including all of the Historical collections – which still lack a more adequate exhibiting venue – are kept in storage and will remain accessible, on motivated request and by appointment, to both scholars and individual visitors.
