Peggy Guggenheim Collection in Venice
At the heart of our museum is a simple goal: to share the extraordinary personal collection of Peggy Guggenheim and help visitors from all walks of life discover the wonder of modern art.
We invite you to explore the revolutionary movements that changed how we see the world, from the bold structures of Cubism and Futurism to the dreamlike visions of Surrealism and the powerful energy of American Abstract Expressionism.
The collection brings you face-to-face with masterpieces by the visionary artists who defined these eras, including Jean Arp, Francis Bacon, Giacomo Balla, Umberto Boccioni, Constantin Brancusi, Georges Braque, Victor Brauner, Alexander Calder, Giorgio de Chirico, Salvador Dalí, Robert Delaunay, Marcel Duchamp, Max Ernst, Leonor Fini, Alberto Giacometti, Arshile Gorky, Juan Gris, Grace Hartigan, Vasily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, Fernand Léger, El Lissitzky, René Magritte, Kazimir Malevich, Marino Marini, Joan Miró, Piet Mondrian, Henry Moore, Robert Motherwell, Tancredi Parmeggiani, Francis Picabia, Pablo Picasso, Jackson Pollock, Germaine Richier, Mark Rothko, Gino Severini, Yves Tanguy, and Emilio Vedova.
Beyond these modern icons, you will also find a rich selection of historic works from Africa, Oceania, and the Pre-Columbian Americas, reflecting Peggy’s wide-reaching passion for creativity across the globe.
