Concierge.com's insider take:
The Palazzo Grassi has been giving the Guggenheim some stiff modern-art competition since it reopened in spring of 2006. Formerly an exhibition space owned by Fiat, the car manufacturer, the 18th-century palazzo overlooking the Grand Canal was taken over by French luxury-goods magnate François Pinault in 2005 and refurbished by architect Tadao Ando to stage major shows of contemporary art. Events kicked off with a small selection from Pinault's own storerooms, which are believed to contain well over 2,000 works. An exhibit of little-seen Picasso works followed.
Open Wednesdays through Mondays 10 am to 7 pm.
