| Sumario: | The ‘National Collections of Contemporary Art’
Programme run by the Ministry of Culture and National
Heritage (MKiDN) in 2011–2019 constituted the most
important since 1989 financing scheme for purchasing
works of contemporary art to create and develop museum
collections. Almost PLN 57 million from the MKiDN budget
were allocated by means of a competition to purchasing
works for such institutions as the Museum of Modern
Art in Warsaw (MSN), Museum of Art in Lodz (MSŁ),
Wroclaw Contemporary Museum (MNW), Museum of
Contemporary Art in Cracow (MOCAK), or the Centre of
Polish Sculpture in Orońsko (CRP). The programme in
question and the one called ‘Signs of the Times’ that had
preceded it were to fulfil the following overall goal: to
create and develop contemporary art collections meant for
the already existing museums in Poland, but particularly
for newly-established autonomous museums of the 20th
and 21st century. The analysis of respective editions of the
programmes and financing of museums as part of their
implementation confirms that the genuine purpose of
the Ministry’s ‘National Contemporary Art Collections’
Programme has been fulfilled.
