Since 2015 the diverse art collections of the Ticino Canton and the city of Lugano have been combined under the umbrella Museo d’Arte della Svizzera (MASI). This has two locations, one inside the brand new LAC building in the south of the city, near the start of Via Nassa.
And the other is the Palazzo Reali in the centre of the city.
The LAC is the venue for modern and contemporary art and major temporary exhibitions.
