Facts and practical information

Palazzo Collicola is a museum named in memory of Giovanni Carandente located inside Palazzo Collicola, an 18th-century building that occupies the entire western side of the square of the same name in the historic center of Spoleto. Inaugurated in 2000, it was then refurbished in 2019. Together with the Burri Collection in Città di Castello, it is the most important contemporary art museum in Umbria. Before 2009 it was called the Galleria Civica d'Arte Moderna. After Gianluca Marziani, since 2019 the direction has passed into the hands of art critic and historian Marco Tonelli, who was Carandente's collaborator.

The museum has three floors: ground floor: 1,500 square meters of exhibition space hosting temporary exhibitions; second floor: entirely occupied by the noble apartment, it displays furniture and picture gallery coeval to the palace and houses the Carandente Library; second and top floor: here is the permanent collection of the Gallery of Modern Art
