Modern Art in Roma: Museums, Signed Prints and Prices

Un museo a cielo aperto dove il marmo antico incontra la tela contemporanea

Modern art in Roma: where to start

Twentieth-century and current art make more sense once you have seen up close what came before. In Roma the institutions to start from are Musei Vaticani, Galleria Borghese, MAXXI, Musei Capitolini, GNAM. Contemporary exhibitions are normally temporary, so check the calendar before you go. The page on Lazio gathers the other cities of the region.

Cityscapes & Architecture

Stone, light and architecture

Roma is read in its façades and squares. For anyone who loves that geometry, a selection from ArtMarket's “Cityscapes & Architecture”, “Black & White” and “Landscapes & Nature” collections.

What we offer

The modern works in our selection are fine-art prints, signed, in editions of 25 with a certificate: 12 works by 2 artists, in 60 × 40 cm, at 295 €. They are contemporary and do not depict Roma. The modern art price guide explains how the price is set.

How to choose a modern work

  • Size matters more than elsewhere: an abstract work can carry a whole wall, but it needs space around it. See the guide to hanging and lighting.
  • Ask for the edition and the signature: they are what separate an art edition from a reproduction. The guide to editions explains both.
  • Don't buy as an investment: buy what you want to look at every day. A work's future value cannot be predicted.

To compare with painting, see the painting price guide.
