About
With its rich permanent collection exhibited on a rotating basis, the Zust Gallery is today the primary centre for studying art of the period from the Renaissance to the 19th century in the Canton Ticino. A former parish house renovated and enlarged by the architect Tita Carloni (1967) and refurbished by the architect Claudio Cavadini (1990) provides a splendid setting for paintings by the major artists of Lombardy and Ticino from the 17th century to the 19th, including Giovanni Serodine, Giuseppe Antonio Petrini, Antonio Rinaldi, Luigi Rossi, Adolfo Feragutti Visconti and Gioachimo Galbusera among many others. The gallery also presents two temporary exhibitions a year curated by outstanding figures in the world of art.
