Ca' Pesaro International Gallery of Modern Art

This is a really good museum with works from Rodin, Picasso, and Warhol among others. It can be difficult to get to traversing the small alleys and walkways of Venice. It is kid-friendly. While inside you should take notice of the uneven floors and tilted inward stairs. Judith II is amazing!

Quite a lovely gallery in Venice. The building is quite big, it doesn't look that size from the outside. There's a variety of different forms of art to be seen inside, quite a lovely walk. The cafe in the gallery is very nice as well, with some seating outdoors overlooking the canals.

There is a lot of backtracking to see everything. The War room is very powerful. Some of the sculptures were amazing. The Thinker is here, which was awesome. Definitely worth a visit, if Art is your thing.

Absolutely stunning! Beautiful building with wonderful collection of modern art. Besides big international names, they had Massimo Campigli and Adolfo Wildt. These two Italian artists were great and I am glad that their work was highlighted.

Ca' Pesaro was a very unique and very interesting museum. I enjoyed my time here and the various works of art. I liked some of the paintings and statues. If you like art and modern art, I would recommend visiting this museum.

This beautiful palace houses the museum for modern art and the oriental museum. Modern art is situated in the large rooms of this former palace and has been renovated with a lot of care and attention. Even if modern art is not your cup of tea, the palace itself it wurthwile. The museum of oriental art is at the top of the building. It houses one of the largest European collections of Japanese art. The variety is overwhelming and the quality of certain artefacts of worldclass. Given the size of both collections, it could be wise to focus on one of the two as there is really a lot to discover.

While being a small museum, the Ca' Pesaro had a wide variety of works as well as some interesting special exhibitions. The collection of Oriental art was very informative with pieces of historical information interspersed throughout the galleries. It was very quiet when I went to visit on a Tuesday afternoon.

For an art experts or enthusiasts it will be most likely much more interesting. It's a nice museum with number of art styles. Despite the fact I mentioned above it worth to visit. There are beautiful decorated ceilings. You can have a coffee down in museum cafe.

Start off by saying most of the art and exhibits were pretty cool not all of it was to my taste, but I'm sure somebody liked some of it. One star rating is because one of the art babysitter at one of the exhibits decided it was appropriate to scream at me from only 3 m away. Because I stuck my head through a hole in the blinds to look out the window. The hole was already there, and I was not touching the art. And frankly, the view through the hole of Venice was much better than any of the shitty modern art they had on display. Most of the art babysitters use their indoor voices, but this one was inappropriate yelled at the top of her lungs. For some reason, she wasn't wearing the normal babysitter outfit that the rest of the babysitters, wear. And then took it upon herself to follow me throughout the installation standing only 1 m behind me breathing down my neck. Until I went to the next exhibit, quite annoying and inappropriate. The rest of the art babysitters behaved appropriate. I hope you train your art babysitters better in the future. And maybe explains why there was only a handful of people at this museum to begin with if everybody gets rubbed the wrong way when walking through the exhibits.

I have to admit that I only visited this museum in order to see Gustav Klimt's Judith II. To say the least, the painting is magnificent! It was worth ten times the price of the ticket, the time and the effort of finding this museum, and the dragging of your family across Venice to get a glimpse of Klimt's masterpiece. In general however, the museum offers a very limited collection of modern artworks. Of note are Chagall, Miró, Kandinsky, Bonnard, and omnipresent sculptures of Rodin. I can't give the museum fewer than 4 stars - the pleasure of seeing Judith would make it blasphemous!

A rather limited collection that seems mostly appropriate as a break in the action from so much Renaissance art, Ca' Pesaro was stumbled upon while walking through the streets of Venice and all-in-all is worth a visit for both the modern collection as well as its Oriental wing that contains a treasure trove of antique weaponry and armour.

I've been here twice now and it's definitely worthwhile, but it's nothing magnificent like so many other offerings in Venice. The art here is more my style than much of the religious/renaissance art you find in Italy, but it was nothing that wowed me. There are a few pieces from big names like Klimt, but they are not the well known works. And on my most recent visit those pieces were on loan. I also got yelled at by one of the guards. They had a group of sculptures displayed in a circle-type arrangement, but all facing in towards each other. I wanted to see the front and there was a space between that looked like a pathway. Apparently not! You must stick to the outside edge! Although I don't see how I possibly could have hurt the metal & stone sculptures securely attached to the floor even if I did bump into one, which of course I would never do. Bonus here is that the bathrooms are through an adjacent door by the front entry, so if you needed a pit stop you could do so even without visiting the museum. But you may as well go in and get a change of pace from the typical Venetian art offerings.

This was an unexpected stop on my day trip. The backside of the museum is visible from the other side of the grand canal, but it's a maze to get to it. It's a small museum with a couple of random things: modern art on the first floor, a collection of Asian art and weapons on the third floor, and when I went, there was a special Chanel exhibit on the second floor. I went to the museum cafe for a spritz afterwards. The drink cost way too much for what it was, but it was worth it to sit right on the water.

I don't know why this museum got low marks. It has a first class permanent collection of late 19th century to mid-20th. Traveling exhibits are spectacular.

In a city where Renaissance art is king and where people come from all corners of the globe to see masterpieces by Titian and co. the museum of modern art in Venice feels slightly neglected, Maybe it's just because when we were there, it was late and it was a rainy day in November. Despite it's seemingly unpopular status it's actually a beautiful building with a collection that could easily occupy you for an hour or more. Entrance is included with the VeniceCard, but otherwise you'll have to fork out a few Euros (maybe 5?) to get in. The Café looked very nice with a charming view over the Grand Canal, but as it was late (it closes at 5.30pm and we got there at 4.45pm) it wasn't open. There's quite an eclectic selection of works, many are by Italian artists, and everything is exhibited in such a way as to make it very accessible and digestible. If you're a fan of 20th century art then I would definitely recommend a visit it's a nice break from all the religious imagery and floaty paintings that provide the artistic backbone of Venice. There's also a collection of oriental art but we didn't have time to look at it.

The ca Pesaro museum owns some beautiful pieces of modern art. Here you can find klimt's Giuditta II for instance that worths alone the price ticket. But I had the impression that this big building is...how can I say... Quite left alone...getting there is, as typical for Venice more a luck thing then else... It's a huge and beautiful building but in some ways not treated as it should be.
