I only visited the temporary exhbition on this occasion, so I can't comment on the permanent collection, but the temporary show certainly made the visit worthwhile. It was well conceived and curated, and I found it really interesting even though its subject (outside art) is not one of my primary interests. If I return to Ravenna, this is a place I'll always check out.
Il Mar e' facilmente raggiungibile a piedi dal centro di Ravenna che peraltro vanta un centro storico pedonabile molto curato.il Museo che comprende anche un padiglione con mostra permanente e' situato all'interno di un pregevole monastero del 1500 adiacente alla Chiesa di S. Maria in Porto. e' stato restaurato con molta cura ed e' particolarmente accogliente .per ora ho visitato una mostra temporanea " IL BEL PAESE" di pittura di artisti italiani di fine 1800 e inizi 1900 fra i piu' eccellenti Macchiaioli e Futuristi , assolutamente da vedere e consiglio l'audio guida. Tornero' in questo Museo per visitare anche la mostra permanente .
Reasonable entry fee; able to views shows at close range. Close to other attractions. Saw the borderline show and got to view incredible pieces. A must-see if spending time in Ravenna; right up there after the mosaics.
This was one of my very best museum experiences. The selection, positioning and lighting on all pieces was perfect.The museum staff were fantastic and informative. Thank-you.
Bellissime mostre temporanee come quella unica nel suo genere dei dipinti strappati dai muri.Bellissima la collezione di copie di dipinti famosi riproposti in mosaico.
Посещал этот музей, чтобы посмотреть мозаики в галерее первого этажа и само здание бывшего монастыря. Посетил весь музей, так как была еще временная выставки фресок известных авторов из других музеев. Из постоянных выставок - мозаики на первом этаже современных авторов , необычно,красиво, есть даже Шагал. Очень хорошая пинакотека : скульптуры ( интересная скульптура рыцаря на гробнице) , картины - в основном художники Эмильи-Романьи , неплохая подборка живописи на религиозную тему ( Гуерчино ,Виварини ).
I recognised work by Dali and Bacon but other artists were either new to me or forgotten. I particularly liked the series of self portraits by Antonio Ligabue the colours and style I could admire, also work by Carlo Zinelli but some of the exhibits were just too "mad" for me! In the permanent exhibition are well known paintings or paintings by known artists which hang alongside the work copied into mosaic form. Some of these were successful, some so much so that they were better than the original! Others were less so and some didn't translate into mosaic at all well.
Inserito in un bellissimo contesto, i giardini pubblici, ogni volta è sempre un emozione vedere le loro mostre....
After the visit of the Domus dei tappeti di pietra we encourage you to visit this museum, this will help you in order to know what really Ravenna represented in the past, during the Bizantine Empire. An array of art findings of the past (mosaics, but also paintings of all ages) is here on display.
