Muzej savremene likovne umetnosti u Novom Sadu...

osnovan je kao Galerija savremene likovne umetnosi odlukom Skupątine AP Vojvodine 1. februara 1966. godine. Naziv ustanove promenjen je 1996. godine u Muzej savremene likovne umetnosti obzirom da je Galerija u praksi obavljala delatnost koja odgovara obimu i karakteru rada muzeja savremene umetnosti.

Osnovna delatnost Muzeja jeste da sakuplja, čuva, izučava i izlaľe, pre svega dela moderne i savremene likovne umetnosti u Vojvodini. Po svojoj funkciji i obimu delovanja Muzej predstavlja jedinu ustanovu ove vrste u Vojvodini.

U muzejskom fondu nalaze se umetničke zbirke slika, skulptura, grafika i crteľa, konceptualne umetnosti i dela novih/proąirenih medija druge polovine XX veka u Vojvodini. U muzejskom fondu je i nekoliko velikih donacija vojvođanskih umetnika: umetničkog para VERBUMPROGRAM (R.Kulić, V.Mattioni), Stojana Trumića, Duąana Milovanovića, Milete Vitorovića, Milana Kerca, Zorana Petrovića, Bogomila Karlavarisa, Ankice Opreąnik, Boąka Petrovića.

Biblioteka i Odsek dokumentacije raspolaľu obimnim knjiľnim fondom i stručno obrađenom građom relevantnom za proučavanje umetničkih zbivanja u periodu kojim se Muzej bavi.

Muzej od osnivanja nema prostor za svoje delatnosti, pa tako ni za priređivanje povremenih izloľbi kao ni za izlaganje Stalne postavke umetnosti XX i XXI veka u Vojvodini. U periodu od 1984. do 1999. za izloľbenu delatnost Muzej je koristio iznajmljen prostor u Sportskom i poslovnom centru "Vojvodina" iz kojeg je nasilno iseljen septembra 1999. godine.

Od juna 2001. godine Muzej realizuje izloľbe u prostorijama bivąeg Muzeja socijalističke revolucije kada za to ima slobodnih termina, dok su kancelarije, depo za smeątaj umetničkog fonda, biblioteka i dokumentacija i dalje smeąteni u zgradi Opątinskog suda i Geoplana (Jevrejska 21).

THE MUSEUM OF CONTEMPORARY ART IN NOVI SAD.

. was founded as the Gallery of Contemporary Art in accordance with the decision of the Assembly of the Autonomous Province of Vojvodina on February 1, 1966. Since the Gallery was performing the functions in the scale and character of that of a museum, the name of the institution was changed to the Museum of Contemporary Art in 1996.

The Museum's mission is to collect, preserve, explore and display the works of modern and contemporary art from Vojvodina primarily. Its function and scope of activity make this Museum the only institution of this kind in Vojvodina.

The museum collection consists of paintings, sculptures, graphics, drawings and works of conceptual art and new expanded media of the second half of the 20th century in Vojvodina. The museum collection also comprises several large donations from artists from Vojvodina: artistic couple VERBUMPROGRAM (R.Kulić, V.Mattioni), Stojan Trumić, Duąan Milovanović, Mileta Vitorović, Milan Kerc, Zoran Petrović, Bogomil Karlavaris, Ankica Opreąnik and Boąko Petrović.

The Library and Art Documentation Department have rich holdings and specialised publications relevant to research on events of significance to the works held in the Museum.

Since its foundation, the Museum has not had its own space either for organizing its periodical exhibitions or for housing its permanent collection of the 20th and 21st century art from Vojvodina. In order to secure their display, the Museum rented space in the Sport and Business Centre "Vojvodina" from 1984 until September 1999, when it was unfortunately evicted.

Since June 2001, the Museum's exhibitions have been organized in the Museum of the Socialist Revolution whenever permitted by its event calendar. Meanwhile, the Museum's offices, art repository, library and documentation are still located in the Municipal Court and Geoplan buildings (21 Jevrejska Street).
