The MAXXI is a national museum dedicated to contemporary creativity, located in the Flaminio neighbourhood of Rome.

Opened in 2010 the star of the museum still is, Zaha Hadid’s stunning €150 million, 27,000 sq m gallery, universally hailed as a triumph of modern architecture.

The multi-layered geometric facade gives the gallery an impressive impact.

It has a small permanent collection but more interesting are the temporary exhibitions and installations – check the website for details.

The collection includes works by Alighiero Boetti, William Kentridge, Kara Walker, Ed Ruscha, Gilbert & George, Gino De Dominicis, and others.
