Located in the heart of Cagliari, Galleria Esdé was born from a deep passion for contemporary art, as window to promote local and International Artists with a quality search, in order to improve the exchange of trends and painting styles. With the aim to offer an exhibition space and also a warm atmosphere for talented Artists with interesting projects of value, we work to spread emotion and artistic sarin with painting lovers. Expanding artistic pooling, our main goal is to stimulate the interest, so we curate solo exhibitions and collective ones with an eye for detail. Finding points of contact among local and International Artists is our key to increase a fervent artistic production . We valorize quality painting artworks at the same time we do want to welcome our passionate audience making them feel home, involved and being part of the gallery.

Since 2014, the cycle and pedestrian path joining Su Siccu seafront, at the foot of Bonaria hill, with Viale La Palma and the main entrance of Molentargius – Saline Regional Park, has been hosting an ongoing project aimed at the creation of an open-air contemporary art gallery.

The project has been developed by the non-profit organization Urban Center together with many local, national and international artists, who have contributed realizing the fine murals that nowadays offer the visitor a beautiful route through art and nature.

Along the path, it is possible to see some wall paintings by the Sardinian street artist Manu Invisible, whose name is internationally known, even it is associated with a secret identity protected by a mask.

Every day, runners, cyclists and canoeists cross the Galleria del Sale, as well as tourists and local families. Everyone can express a thought inspired by the beauty of the gallery and not just virtually: a big wooden note board in the shape of a human figure collects visitors’ memories.

The Municipal Art Gallery is located inside the Public Gardens. The building lays itself at the end of the main promenade surrounded by the green, just before the slopes of the hill of Buoncammino.

In the past it was the site of the royal armoury, but the 18th century building which houses it, was destroyed by an explosion and later rebuilt in 1828, according to the design of the military engineer Carlo Boyl of Putifigari.

Characterized by friezes and elements of neo-classical style, made of limestone from Bonaria's hill, the new facade is surmounted by a simple and elegant tympanum on the top of which there are three sculptures, made of Carrara marble, given by the Count Boyl himself.

For a long time it was used as a barrack and warehouse, but at the end of the 1920s, it was finally adapted by the architect Ubaldo Badas from Cagliari, to house the exhibition space.

Inaugurated in 1933, it houses valuable works of Italian and Sardinian artists (Ingrao Art Collection and Sardinian Collection !900-1970), acquired by the Municipality of Cagliari also thanks to the important donations made by benefactors and art lovers. Recently, the Sardinian Collection has been enriched by three sculptures of Francesco Ciusa, that well outline his thematic and stylistic evolution.

Headquarter of the Specialized Library in Art History, the Municipal Gallery offers library loan, also possible in the green area adjacent to the Public Gardens.

In its spaces are also promoted several initiatives, including educational tours and recreational activities for children and teenagers, temporary exhibitions, cultural events, music festivals and theatre performances.

The Municipal Art Gallery provides also a service for blind visitors. Starting from September 27th 2011 is active a dedicated path for blind people called SeSaMoNet. The route is part of the project WiMove from the program ELISA, that has the Municipality of Cagliari among the partners, and the University of Rome La Sapienza, as the material author of the installation.

The route winds through the rooms housing the Sardinian collection, where it was built a methacrylate platform containing numerous RFID tags, through which the visitor can receive information about the art works and the artists.

Paintings and sculptures "liven up and speak about themselves", only by touching with a stick the modular elements of the platform. The microchips installed send electronic impulses that are transmitted immediately to the mobile phone supplied to the visitors.

SeSaMoNet also provides information about the position, signalizing any obstacles on the way.

The museum staff provides for free the complete kit to use the system, and remains at your disposal for any further information.

The ruins of the Fort of St. Elias, improperly known as the Fort of St. Ignazio , are situated in an area of St. Elias hill. The building is located on a panoramic point from which is possible to enjoy a full view of the city.

The construction of the fort is dated to the end of 1792. It was designed by the military engineer Franco Lorenzo, to cope with the French attacks from the sea.
The original design included a pentagonal fortification, provided with various towers, a tank and a moat and armed with more than fifty guns. Works were never accomplished, giving rise to the building of a bastion with a quadrilateral plan, unique in Sardinia, with only two towers, an incomplete moat, without tank and with a small number of cannons.
In 1804 the fort lost its military function and served as a shelter for sick with contagious diseases. However, during World War II its strategic position was reassessed as a lookout point against enemies.

The Sacred Art Fund of the Ingrao Collection is one of the permanent exhibitions that are located inside the Municipal Art Gallery. 

The Sacred Art Fund boasts 45 sculptures and 8 paintings, which show the aesthetic sensitivity and sense of religiosity of Francesco Paolo Ingrao. Seven wooden sculptures representing the Crucifixion are on display inside an "apse", the fulcrum of any religious celebration and emblem of Christianity. The Crucifixes, small in size because they were hanged on the walls of private rooms, are dated between the 16th and 18th centuries. Three of them represent the "living Christ", captured in the moment of maximum suffering immediately before his death; the other represent the "Dead Christ", with his head resting on his right shoulder, immortalized after having exhaled his last breath. The Crucifix that the collector kept above his bed stands out among all.

Among the most significant works there is also is the armless wooden half-bust of the "Holy Monk", which seems to be inspired by the Sienese proto-Renaissance style. The sculpture may be attributed to the school of Francesco da Valdambrino (15th century), made with a single block of walnut and just sketched on the back, probably because it was intended to be placed inside a niche.

A statue of Saint Anthony of Padua from the sixteenth century attracts the visitor's attention, especially for its size (over 120 centimeters) and its impressive carving. The Holy Monk is depicted with his right hand on his chest, while the left holds a book on which, presumably, a Baby Jesus, now lost, rested.

The Sacred Art Fund also boasts a small oil painting from the school of Ludovico Cardi, known as Cigoli from the second half of the 16th century, depicting "the Ecstasy of St. Francis". The painting represents an episode from the "Fioretti di San Francesco": the Saint is portrayed slumped to the ground, while he turns a pleading gaze towards the sky asking God to alleviate his suffering. A musician angel with large wings appears and brings comfort to Saint Francis with his violin.
