Contemporary art galleries in Bologna

Art is everywhere In Bologna, concealed in the squares and alleyways, glistening on the faces of those who gaze at the clear sky or in the eyes of children playing hide and seek in the fog.

Freedom of expression, in all its forms, is the city's dominant feature, beckoning free thought and its continuous pursuit. This is well embodied by the superb work of the Associazione Gallerie d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea Confcommercio Bologna, which daily invites the visitor to artistic exploration.

Art galleries are a wealth of artistic and cultural research; while being always open, they can be accessed for free and feature special programmes on important occasions such as Arte Fiera, Bologna's longest-running modern and contemporary art fair, which welcomes artists and enthusiasts from all over the world every year.
