Museion - Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art.
The Museum of Modern Art (Museion) has been in existence since 1987. Exhibitions have featured regional art as well as comprehensive topics and historical developments that have had an impact on contemporary art. The focus of the collection is contemporary production in conjunction with modern history. Because of the unique geographical conditions of Bolzano (Bozen), the exhibit deals with both the German-speaking and Italian-speaking cultures. One main exhibit combines images with text. A new building is planned for this museum (scheduled for completion in 2006), which will also newly define its purpose.
