Overview
The Pinacoteca Agnelli is an art institution that connects the precious historical masterpieces of its Permanent Collection with exhibitions and projects by leading Italian and international artists. Since 2022, the Pinacoteca Agnelli has undergone a renovation, expanding its exhibition spaces to include the spectacular Pista 500, the iconic racetrack on the roof of the former FIAT factory in Lingotto.
The Permanent Collection represents the core identity of the Pinacoteca Agnelli and includes 25 masterpieces donated to the institution by Giovanni and Marella Agnelli. The collection, of exceptional historical and artistic value, includes works of 18th-century Venetian art and neoclassical plaster casts by Canova, the pre-Impressionism of Édouard Manet and the classicism of Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Giacomo Balla's large Futurist canvas, and the Cubist expressions of Pablo Picasso and Gino Severini, concluding with Amedeo Modigliani's return to figurative art and seven paintings by Henri Matisse. The masterpieces are presented in the Scrigno, a structure suspended from the roof of the Lingotto building designed by Renzo Piano.
