Muzeum Sztuki in Łódź
Our mission at the Muzeum Sztuki consists in providing an appropriate environment for contemporary audiences to interact with the heritage of past and present generations of artists which can inspire them to develop the ability to independently see, understand and experience the world around. The Muzeum promotes art as a valid component of social life which makes our human existence more complete and valuable. We pursue our mission goal by collecting, preserving and studying works of art, as well as by organising artistic events and supporting and advancing research, education and promotion of art at all levels. Having regard to the close link between the history of the Muzeum and the history of the avant-garde, we focus our activities particularly on the promotion of progressive artistic practices and collaboration with their authors.
