Milan is a city known for its aperitifs, for the Duomo and its museums. Moreover, there are historical places of interest such as the Pinacoteca di Brera or the Cenacolo Vinciano. The Lombard capital is not only this – the city is rich in galleries, museums and foundations where contemporary art is the protagonist. Who has never said, in the face of contemporary work, would I have been able to do it too?

Well, if you decide to discover something more and if you would have been able to do it yourself, we suggest six places where the contemporary is the protagonist. Museo del '900 and Padiglione d’Arte Contemporanea, both managed by the Milano Municipality; Triennale and Gallerie d’Italia, offer temporary exhibitions of contemporary art run by foundations; Fondazione Prada and Pirelli HangarBicocca, focused on contemporary art managed and sponsored by private companies.
