National Gallery of Modern and Contemporary Art

Such a beautiful building. We came here 2016 but it was not open. Seven years since but unfortunately it looks like they just opened. No clear instructions where to go, map to scan the rooms behind the door. There was a concert but not letting us take seats. Once opened after the Sound check, all seats reserved. Coffee place opened 10 minutes later and only after i insisted they made coffee but with a lot of resentment. I am still to embark on the expedition within the exhibition. The staff couldn't even say the hour 11 o clock in English when the concert begins.

It was a beautiful experience with some interesting pieces from know and not so well known artists. Beautiful 🤩 building, quite puzzling to navigate through the rooms. The lighting of the paintings 🖼️ was not that good so one couldn’t enjoy the art at its best.

One of the best modern and contemporary art museums I visited so far. The way the artworks are presented is really immersing you in the museum experience. Nice collection of paintings, sculptures and installations, also you can see artworks from famous artists such as Klimt, van Gogh, Kandinsky, Picasso, Cezanne and many others.
Overall I was really impressed by this museum, also not crowded, you could enjoy the artworks at your own pace.

Not a huge museum but still a big one. I didnt like the way they had those paintings hung up in the first room (see pic). You could hardly see the highest ones.

Cheap tickets if you are under 24 yo and from the eu. Not as crowded as many other attractions in rome.

I came here with my family, and we were positively surprised by the extraordinary variety of beautiful artworks of all kinds. Different drawings, sculptures, and other exhibition pieces are to be found in several rooms of the museum. Since we came on a weekday, it was pretty empty, and we didn't have any wait at the entry. We also visited the café and got good food and drinks for a fair price. The only small issue was that it was pretty hard to find a bathroom inside the museum since there weren't many signs that could've helped us find the way. Overall, we all really enjoyed the visit and would recommend it anytime.

Caught the ‘Time Is Out Of Joint’ exhibition, I didn’t quite get the thematic of the collection but overall it was impressive, some amazing contemporary sculpture, modernist paintings and historically significant works.

We got some drinks and snacks at the cafe which was also super nice.

Such a lovely Gallery. The best way to spend time during a hot afternoon in Rome. Great atmosphere, a lot of artworks + not many people.

We had originally intended to visit the Borghese Museum, but due to it being sold out, we decided to explore this museum instead. And we glad we did! The museum offers a delightful combination of sculptures and paintings, with a curating style that truly impressed us. The way the artworks were juxtaposed and presented was simply outstanding. We highly recommend this museum for anyone seeking an immersive and visually stunning experience. Don't miss out on this hidden gem!
