The permanent exhibition shows works from the artist's beginnings in the fifties - with motordriven reliefs, drawing machines and the scrap assemblages of the sixties - through the black-painted machine sculptures, to the large sculptures and pandemonic cycles of his last creative period.

The museum, designed and built by the architect Mario Botta, comprises varied spatial structures that enter into dialogue in size and mood with the various series of work.
