The exhibition season of the Spoleto Gallery of Modern Art
About Palazzo Collicola Exhibitions
An 18th-century palace dedicated to art
Palazzo Collicola, an elegant 18th-century residence overlooking Piazza Collicola in Spoleto (province of Perugia), houses the city's Gallery of Modern Art (GAM). Its rooms, spread over several floors, host a permanent collection and a program of temporary exhibitions that make the palace one of the main centers for modern and contemporary art in Umbria.
A multiple exhibition season
Each season, the museum organizes multiple exhibitions simultaneously, intertwining major international names, archival research, and dialogues between ancient art and contemporary languages. The spring 2026 season features four exhibitions ranging from the figure of St. Francis reinterpreted through contemporary art to the bronze sculptures of Barry Flanagan, and author posters from the Experimental Lyric Theatre.
Art in the historic center of Spoleto
Visiting Palazzo Collicola also means immersing yourself in the monumental fabric of Spoleto: the palace is located a short walk from the main venues of the Festival dei Due Mondi, on a route that combines historic architecture and contemporary art in the heart of the Umbrian city.
