Cats Museum is a cultural space devoted to the dialogue between art, research, and the feline world.

We support living artists, investigate the history and imagery of cats, and promote feline well-being.

DIGITAL EXHIBITIONS

A growing portfolio of artists who explore cats as subjects and symbols.

Walter Chandoha plays with one of his subjects at his home studio in 1955.

BLOG POSTS

Essays, stories, and research on cats in art, science, and visual culture.

We explore how cats have shaped creativity, knowledge, and everyday life: from ancient myths to contemporary digital culture.

Why Cats Museum exists, how it started, and where it’s going next.

“What a joy it was to work with Cats Museum while pulling together the digital exhibition. Their thoughtful questions helped me reflect on my own art practice, while collating and curating numerous examples of feline portraits made me realise, all over again, how much I adore painting cats.”

Tiziana Valeriano

“I found understanding, enthusiasm, and deep respect for my photographs and my experience. It was an honour to collaborate to the Cats Museum project, a project I deeply believe in and hope will soon become a physical point of reference in Italy for all cat lovers.”
