The Museion collection was born in the early nineties and currently includes about 4250 works. The successive directors who have given an imprint to the museum heritage through the purchasing and exhibition policy, have individually contributed to the peculiar nature of this institution.
At the beginning, the focus was mainly on the artists of the Italian avant-garde with a strong opening towards the Central European area, among which we cite as an example Carla Accardi, Afro, Agostino Bonalumi, Günter Brus, Enrico Castellani, Markus Lüpertz, Achille Perilli, Arnulf Rainer, Hans Staudacher, Emilio Vedova.
Over the years, the museum has acquired a specific profile also thanks to the establishment of various thematic nuclei within the heritage, whose construction is still open and subject to continuous changes and additions.
In the collection, an important set of luminous works are noteworthy, represented by historical nuclei such as Gruppo N and Gruppo Zero, or by individual artistic personalities such as Mario Airò, Alberto Biasi, Otto Piene, Rosemarie Trockel or Cerith Wyn Evans, as well as a focus large and rich in works that investigate the relationship between image and text.
