The exhibition space, launched in July 1990, hosts 128 artworks including painting cycles and monumental sculptures, also placed outside on the lawn.
The "cycles" are a collection of artworks forming an inseparable unit: The journey (1979), Orsanmichele (1980), Sextant (1982), Red and Black (1983-1984), T Cellotex (1975-1984), Annottarsi (1985-1987), He doesn't love black (1988), Big blacks (1988-1990), Metamorfotex (1991) and The Black and Gold (1992-1993).
The external spaces display some monumental sculptures: Big Sextant Iron, Big K Iron and U Iron.
In the March 2017, on the occasion of the anniversary of Alberto Burri's birth, the Albizzini Palace Foundation launched a new section of the museum, so bringing to conclusion the long year of the Centenary.
The third Museum occupies a space of over 4000 square metres, all obtained thanks to a recent re-qualifying project that concerned part of the underlying space in wide settings hosting, according to the original installation prepared by Burri, his Great Cycles of Art.
An exhibition area reaching 11,500 square metres, with the three different collections, also including some open-air sculptures, make the "Burri pole" of Città di Castello the world's largest Artistic Museum and one of the most important European places of the contemporary art.
The section includes the whole repertoire of the Master's graphic works and multiples, consisting of over 200 artworks underscoring his extraordinary manual skills and attitude to constant experimentation.
