The Museo MAGI '900 was founded by an entrepreneur and contemporary art collector Giulio Bargellini, who in 2000 decided to open a space where he could share his passions with the general public.
Thanks to a project of the architect Giuseppe Davanzo, the silo was converted into a museum, to which two new exhibition spaces and a large garden dedicated to sculpture were added later on.
The Museo MAGI ‘900 hosts numerous well-known and historicized artists as well as less-known ones, in an exhibition space separated into thematic sections.
Among the artists whose works appear in the museum are: The permanent and the temporary collections can be visited by paying an entrance fee except for the OPEN BOX space, where there are always exhibitions and cultural events available for free.
The museum organizes individual, thematic or personalized guided tours and offers laboratories for children as well as workshops for adults, which aim at making the participants understand art.
