In the museum of Palazzo Belmonte Riso, a wide selection of works from the permanent collection of the Museum is available, which includes works created by Sicilian artists active inside and outside the island, from the 1950s to today, alongside works by Italian or international artists who have worked in Sicily and were also called for specific projects. The common thread of the collection, therefore, is the link between the works and the artists and the territory. On display at Palazzo Belmonte Riso, works by Carla Accardi, Rosario Arizza, Micol Assäel, Christian Boltanski, Michele Canzoneri, Pietro Consagra, Emilio Isgrò, Jannis Kounellis, Richard Long, Paola Pivi, Antonio Sanfilippo. The exhibition itinerary was enriched with photographs, installations, paintings and videos acquired through Ministerial Calls. With the project “Percorsi di Memoria” (PAC 2020) works by internationally renowned artists have entered the collection, Vanessa Beecroft, Shay Frisch, Regina José Galindo, Hermann Nitsch, Aldo Palazzolo; with the project “Percorsi di Memoria # 2” (PAC 2022-23) a work by William Kentridge has entered the collection.
