Abstract

A collection during its formation, evolves and becomes more conspicuous thanks to the initial interests of the collector, until it takes on real systematic and formal characteristics, which outline what will be the fil rouge that maintains the balance of the collection itself. Collections can therefore be aimed at the accumulation of any artistic artefact, and this research has as its objective, that of examining the collections of contemporary art, which over the decades, have become part of Museums or have been transformed themselves into House Museums. The path will be traced, since this has made possible a greater dissemination of this kind of works of art, which probably otherwise, would have had a different fortune in our country that was still anchored to a more traditional style, assuming an important role both cognitive and didactic within the Italian artistic panorama.
