Description
GASC- Galleria d'Arte Sacra dei Contemporanei is one of the most important museum collections of sacred art and exhibits a rich collection of works of art created from the first half of the 20th century to the present day.
Since its foundation in 1955, GASC's mission has been to be a place of encounter and confrontation between artists around a common purpose: to express the themes of the Christian proclamation through a contemporary artistic language.
