Ars Aevi, Contemporary art museum in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Ars Aevi is a contemporary art museum in Sarajevo displaying works across various formats. The building houses over 1,600 artworks including sculptures, paintings, and multimedia installations distributed throughout multiple exhibition spaces.
The museum was founded during the Siege of Sarajevo in 1992 and began as a cultural resistance project. Artists from around the world donated their works as a sign of solidarity and artistic defiance.
The collection displays works by artists such as Michelangelo Pistoletto and Joseph Beuys, representing diverse contemporary movements across the globe. Visitors encounter varied artistic expressions that reflect the spirit of the international art scene.
The museum is located at Obala Kulina bana and is accessible daily. Visitors can join guided tours and educational programs that provide deeper access to the exhibitions.
Italian architect Renzo Piano designed not only the future museum building but also contributed materials to a pedestrian bridge crossing the Miljacka River. This bridge construction reflects the connection between the art project and city life.
