Changing twice a year the collection platform is highlighting leading artists of our time together with upcoming new positions in the exhibition platform. Together with central Ukrainian artists as part of the Collection Platform this program allows a new perspective on contemporary art and especially on the collection. It is a dynamic model of interaction between the collection and new workgroups focusing on their artistic value.
A new viewing area’s directly connected to selected works allow the audience a deeper understanding of artists and their works. The idea is to slow down the speed of viewing and by giving more information allow the audience to acquire more knowledge, competence and experience as integral part of the new education offensive.
Open hours: Tuesday through Sunday from 12:00 until 21:00.
Admission is free.
