The Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art of Rovereto and Trento (MART) hopes to join the ranks of the world's greatest institutions, despite its location out of the usual destinations of cultural tourism.
This ambitious projects is founded on two strongpoints: on the one hand, a very rich endowment of artworks, including masterpieces by Balla, Depero, Prampolini, De Chirico, Campigli, Morandi and Savinio.
On the other, the activism of its President Franco Bernabč, former head of the Venice Biennale, and of a scientific committee which includes internationally renowned art experts such as Salvatore Settis, Achille Bonito Oliva, Manuel J. Borja-Villel, Guy Cogeval, Alanna Heiss and Rolf Lauter.
Another asset is the new, beautiful building that opened in late 2002, joining Palazzo Albere in trento and Casa Museo Depero in Rovereto.
"We shall add several new activities centred around the MART," remarked Bernabč, "turning it into an engine of artistic research and innovation and attracting personalisties and artists."
On June 12, a new arrangement of the permanent collection and three important exhibitions have opened to the public.
The first is a retrospective on great architect Le Corbusier; the second, on life and culture in the Arab world; and the last is devoted to the works of one of the most peculiar

Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (1864-1901), one of the most popular and important painters of late-19th-century Paris, has not been the subject of a major exhibition since the large retrospective presented in London and Paris in 1991 and 1992.
The National Gallery of Art and the Art Institute of Chicago have collaborated to organize Toulouse-Lautrec and Montmartre, an exhibition that places the artist's work at the peak of his career between 1888 and 1896 in conjunction with the work of other artists of the period.
Toulouse-Lautrec and his contemporaries produced images that evocatively record the social geography of Montmartre, Paris' center of licit and illicit entertainment.
Taking Montmartre as a state of mind as well as an environment, the exhibition reevaluates the decadent worldview of fin-de-sičcle Paris.
The focus is on several Montmartre establishments, including dance halls, the circus, and maisons closes (a French euphemism for brothels), and the installation integrates major avant-garde paintings, topographical canvases, and posters and caricatures of stars such as Aristide Bruant and Loďe Fuller.
The aim of the exhibition is to place Toulouse-Lautrec in a wider cultural context and to include for comparison and contrast a selection of works by his contemporaries, including painters, printmakers, and

Our sense of touch is the focus of this unique contemporary design exhibition, showing at the Victoria and Albert Museum (V&A) from 16 June - 29 August 2005.
Through a series of contemporary design products and installations, games, live science experiments and a 'garden of the senses', Touch Me encourages visitors to explore touch - both today and in possible designs of the future.
It invites people to find out what it would be like to squeeze a doorbell rather than press it, for example, or stroke the TV to switch it on.
In the interactive garden of the senses, visitors can play games, take part in live science experiments and engage all their senses in an immersive sensory room.
They can challenge each other to a game of 'chicken' on the Painstation, play table tennis with a difference on MIT Medialab's PingPongPlus or take part in a human-scale 'PacMan' game using Spacehoppers.
This fun and thought-provoking exhibition raises questions about society today and in the future.
Do we live in a touch-starved society?
Can 'virtual' touch interaction ever be a substitute for real touch?
And can our sense of touch help us develop stronger relationships?
Touch Me is a collaboration between the Wellcome Trust and V&A.
The exhibition is curated by freelance writer and curator Hugh Aldersey-Williams and th
