But there's a reason 15th century biblical art was so omnipresent during its time. It was the style at the time and everyone who could afford art wanted Jesus depictions. That said, this gallery is full of vibrant, colorful art which literally protrudes from the painting. The artist Massino Meda depicts nature with such vivacity that it strikes you. The 3D paintings of coral, the sea, glaciers, mountains, and landscapes are just so gorgeous. They shine, brighten, and delight the viewer. If I had the disposable income I would no doubt have picked up a few to brighten my home with some rich color and serene images of nature. It is seriously a great break from the kind of art you see in the huge basilicas and art galleries in Italy. It is a modern, contemporary style, and I can't imagine anyone walking in and not feeling entranced. Even if you don't have the money, it's so worth it to walk in to have a pleasurable viewing experience.

The museum offers free lockers for storing your stuff and they permit photography though no selfie sticks, tripods or flash. Standard museum stuff. They also have a free wifi that worked quite well. Culptures, paintings, artworks and more. Major focus on Italian works, which is understandable. I specifically enjoyed the works I've uploaded. Emilio Longoni (1859-1932) "Glacier" (1912), Guglielmo Giardi (1842-1917) "Laguna" (1891) and Pablo Picasso (1892-1973) "Tete de Femme" (1957). But there was so much more including sculptures by Rodin and the Parnassus (on the ceiling) and the walls in the Ballroom. Corot, Cezanne, Marquet, Gauguin, Van Gogh. Too many to list. Make the time to visit this museum. Totally worth it and in addition to touring the Duomo, one of the MUST DO in Milan. I only wish that the gift shop in the museum offered some of these prints, but they do not. [Review 10721 overall, 489 of 2019.]

The layout is interesting with a linear entryway that gets broken up by stairs on one side that leads you up to the free exhibits. There were furniture designs and modern art pieces displayed here. The most interesting parts during my visit were the "free" playground pieces outside by Naoto Fukasawa. My friends kid loved playing on these and nice to see such humble objects displayed right outside the museum. Upstairs they had a special section dedicated to Emeco, an American furniture maker, which was interesting to find in Italy. They are most known for the all aluminum "naval chair" in continuous production since 1940s. It's pure utilitarian and interesting to see it respected as museum-worthy.

What is fun and unique about this exhibit is that you can try almost all the chairs! Some are more comfortable than others and they aren't always the ones that you expect. They offer a special program/game for kids who are going through the exhibit to help make it more entertaining. They also almost always have an exhibition or two that is free for you to explore as well. In addition to the bookstore, there is a design library downstairs and a section for workshops/study near the entrance. I've enjoyed the cafe here more than once and although I've not attended, they also offer an apertivo in the evening. Once you are done, it's great to stroll through Parco Sempione.
