The Galleria Nazionale d'Arte Moderna e Contemporanea ("national gallery of modern and contemporary art"), also known as La Galleria Nazionale, is an art museum in Rome. It was founded in 1883 on the initiative of the then minister Guido Baccelli and is dedicated to modern and contemporary art.
The museum was expanded and doubled in size by Bazzani in 1934. A new building by Luigi Cosenza was inaugurated in 1988, but closed ten years later over safety concerns. A project developed by architects Diener & Diener[3] between 1999 and 2000 was put on hold in 2003. In 2018 work was done to make the Cosenza building safe to use.[4]
