Collection
The museum follows a basic policy of collecting works of art that will facilitate understanding of the richly creative development of modern and contemporary art. Our acquisitions program focuses on the theme of “the relationship between nature and mankind”, works of art that express the varied range of relationships between human beings and nature, including harmony, symbiosis, and conflict.
