In the architectural complex of the Palazzo della Ragione, the Palazzo with the GAM Galleria d’Arte Moderna represents a model of typical Veronese collecting. In an astonishing architectural setting, the Gallery, which was created by the Veronese collector Achille Forti (1878-1937), makes it possible to reconstruct the visual history of the last two centuries of the city.
Over time, this heritage has developed and been enriched through testamentary legacies, donations from public bodies and credit institutions, gifts from artists, and purchases by the municipal administration. Today, thanks to this policy of acquisitions, the collection can count on a patrimony estimated at around 1,600 works of art, covering a time span from the early 19th century to the present day.
