Turin was the first Italian city to promote a public collection of modern art as the main part of its own Civic Museum, which opened in 1863. Initially the collections were conserved along with the collections of ancient art in a building near the Mole Antonelliana.
The artistic heritage of the gallery comprises 15,000 works of paintings, sculptures, installations and photographs, in addition to a large collection of drawings and engravings. The collections, which date from the end of the 18th century to the present day, mainly document Italian art but also contain important specimens of foreign art. There are over 700 works exhibited permanently.
From the 1800s it has the famous works of Massimo d’Azeglio, landscape artists Fontanesi and Delleani, Pellizza da Volpedo, Mancini, Fattori, and sculptors Medardo Rosso and Vincenzo Gemito. The 1900s collection has several works by Casorati, Martini, Morandi, De Pisis, Manzù, Melotti, Burri, Fontana, Mastroianni. A selected whole of paintings documents the international historical avant-gardes from Modigliani to Balla, Severini, Boccioni, De Chirico, and from Dix to Ernst, Klee and Picabia.
A broad international array of contemporary art includes the informal current, Neo-Dada works and Pop Art as well as an abundant selection of Italian works of the 1960s from the Museo Sperimentale di Arte Contemporanea and a select nucleus of Arte Povera.
