Contemporary art in Venice
Private tour of Venice's most important modern and contemporary art galleries with a specialist tour guide.
Tour 11 - Special contemporary art tour
This is an immersive tour in modern and contemporary art spanning a whole day. In the morning, we will visit Punta della Dogana and Palazzo Grassi, owned by the famous French businessman, merchant and art collector Francois Pinault. There is a permanent exhibition of contemporary works from the private Pinault Collection. In the afternoon - after a lunch break - the tour continues with the not to be missed Peggy Guggenheim Collection. This is situated in the former American collector’s home: a wonderful palace overlooking the Grand Canal. The collection is considered one of the most important in Europe for Cubism, Surrealism, Futurism and Abstract art. Finally, a Venetian jewel, the International Gallery of Modern Art ‘Ca’ Pesaro’, which contains many works acquired from the Biennale exhibitions throughout the 20th century.
