Founded in 1984, Castello di Rivoli Museo d’Arte Contemporanea is a cultural landmark in Turin. Its mission is to promote the research and development of contemporary art.
The Museum focuses on international and radical art movements, maintaining a dialogue between history and current events. Its activities and programmes are designed to support and promote emerging Italian and international artists.
Housed in a building designed by Juvarra, the Museum features a permanent collection, a specialised library, archives, and a multimedia centre. These resources contribute to the dissemination of artistic culture through the production of catalogues of the highest scholarly quality and other publications.
