The International Gallery of Modern Art in Ca’ Pesaro contains important 19th- and 20th-century collections of paintings and sculptures, including masterpieces by Gustav Klimt and Auguste Rodin and remarkable works by artists such as Medardo Rosso, Adolfo Wildt and Giacomo Balla, as well as a rich selection of works by other Italian artists and an important section on graphic art. The second floor of the monumental palace is home to temporary exhibitions and the third floor hosts the Museum of Oriental Art.
Do not miss the building itself. The grandiose palace was built in the second half of the seventeenth century. Works began in 1659 starting from the landside; the courtyard, with its striking loggias, was completed by 1676. The whole palace was only completed in 1710. The palace was constantly enriched, during the long years of its construction, by interior decoration. The palace still conserves some of the fresco and oil decorations of the ceilings, the work of artists such as Bambini, Pittoni, Crosato, Trevisani and Brusaferro.
