The Cavazzini House is located in the center of the city of Udine and is home to the new Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art. The building was reopened to the public, after a long restoration, in 2012 and used as a modern and multifunctional museum. The restoration works have brought to light the valuable frescoes dating back to the second half of the fourteenth century depicting profane subjects. The museum exhibits a permanent collection consisting of sculptures and paintings from the late nineteenth century to the twentieth century and today. In the atrium is exhibited the plaster model of the Gate for the Mausoleum of the Fosse Ardeatine in Rome by Mirko Basaldella, made between 1948-51, while on the opposite wall there is the installation In theory, created by Marotta & Russo on the occasion of the opening of the museum. The first floor is divided into rooms dedicated to the Marangoni collection with works from the late 1800s and early 1900s. A large permanent section is dedicated to the three Udine brothers Dino, Mirko and Afro Basaldella. Finally, the itinerary ends with a visit to the Cavazzini apartment. In the Udine collection we find many prominent personalities such as Emma Ciardi, Plinio Nomellini, Felice Carena and Frans Holder. The ground floor of the building is dedicated to setting up temporary exhibitions and other collateral events.
