Fondazione Accorsi Ometto Torino - Museo di Arti Decorative

The Museo di Arti Decorative is the pride and joy of the Accorsi-Ometto Foundation, founded in December 1999, as requested in the will of the great torinese antiques dealer Pietro Accorsi. All the details of an aristocratic, piedmontese residence of the 18th Century are reconstructed in the rooms of this historic building which was designed by Amedeo Castellamonte. The collection is the fruit of decades of research from all over Italy. Particularly outstanding exhibits are a Madonna from the 15th Century and six Empire style chairs which were a wedding present for Paolina Bonaparte.

Pinacoteca Giovanni e Marella Agnelli

If paintings of the great masters such as Canaletto, Canova and Matisse interest you then you must head to the Pinacoteca Giovanni e Marella Agnelli. This art gallery, which opened in 2002, was a gift to the city of Turin from the president of the automobile company, Fiat. Sitting pretty in the neighborhood of Lingotto, this art-site exhibits a permanent collection by well-known artists as well as holds temporary exhibitions. When you are tired of gazing through the gallery rest your feet at the food and refreshments section, or browse through the library. For the not-so-art-savvy crowd, there are private tours and audio-guides in Italian and English. Check the website for information on events.
