Alongside the new commissions, the Museum presents a major reorganisation of works from the Arte Povera collection. Arte Povera is one of the founding identities of the Castello di Rivoli, whose collection houses a series of important works by the group’s leading figures, spanning a broad chronological arc that, starting with the historical works, goes on to illustrate the subsequent artistic paths taken by the artists over the years.
The new exhibition layout deliberately allocates a separate space to each artist, showcasing masterpieces from the Collection, including those on loan from the Fondazione Arte CRT. After encountering Luciano Fabro’s permanent installation outside, the first floor features rooms dedicated to Alighiero Boetti, Piero Gilardi and Michelangelo Pistoletto, whilst the second floor features new displays centred on Giovanni Anselmo, Pier Paolo Calzolari, Jannis Kounellis, Mario Merz, Giuseppe Penone, Gilberto Zorio and, from October 2026, a monographic room dedicated to Emilio Prini.
