The CACT centre of contemporary Art in Canton Ticino was founded in 1994, whose target is to organize international contemporary art exhibitions and launch thematic publications. Since 1996 membership cards for friends and donators offer combined subscriptions to international art magazines and intercantonal cultural Institutions, it's target is to inform our public about other cultural realities spread all over the national territory. In 2009, the MACT Museo d'Arte Contemporanea Ticino was born, in order to work on new ways of presenting artworks out of private art collections.
