TBVS, Contemporary art museum in Milan, Italy

TBVS was the detached Triennale di Milano venue in Milan's Bovisa district, inaugurated on 22 November 2006. Architect Pierluigi Cerri designed the building, which held a 1,400-square-metre exhibition hall plus 500 square metres for a bookshop, restaurant and public services. Communication design students of the Politecnico di Milano devised the signage, and Milanese writers decorated the surrounding walls. Activities were suspended from 27 October 2011.

TBVS opened on 22 November 2006 as a detached venue of the Triennale di Milano in the Bovisa district, part of efforts to redevelop the area after the Politecnico di Milano built new premises there. The building was designed by architect Pierluigi Cerri. Activities were suspended from 27 October 2011.

The venue's name links it to the Triennale di Milano, of which it was a detached seat in the Bovisa district. Its opening on 22 November 2006 was intended as one of the initiatives to redevelop the neighbourhood, alongside the new Politecnico di Milano buildings. Activities were suspended from 27 October 2011.

The venue is closed: activities were suspended on 27 October 2011, so there are no exhibitions or visiting hours to plan around. The building designed by Pierluigi Cerri stands in the Bovisa district, near the Politecnico di Milano campuses. Look for the signage made by communication design students and the murals painted by Milanese writers on the surrounding walls.

The walls around the venue were decorated by Milanese writers called in directly by the city administration, while students of the communication design degree at the Politecnico di Milano designed the signage. The building itself was designed by architect Pierluigi Cerri. Activities were suspended from 27 October 2011.
