Denominated also museum of new forms and new spaces, it is easy to understand what kind of collection is preserved inside. The museum, in addition to temporary exhibitions of modern and contemporary art, was in fact born as a point of excellence for the setting up of photographic exhibitions, film forums, shows, conferences and book presentations. Among the artists who have exhibited their works at the museum are: Ivana Russo (Desert), Anna Romanello (Tentative d’évasion), Domenico Lo Russo (Science and art) and The machines of time (models of machines exactly reproduced from the drawings of the Leonardesque Codices). The building in which the museum was set up is one of the most modern complexes dedicated to art in the area. The museum is made up of eight exhibition rooms which are in turn divided over two floors: on the ground floor, the Tokyo hall and an internet café; on the upper floor, the Laboratory of thoughts and the Belvedere of arts and sciences. The museum has a total area of about 2,500 sq.m.
