Living artists only

A Copenhagen museum for art made in the last 25 years, by artists still making it.

We only collect work made in the last 25 years, by artists who are still making it. When a work turns 25, it moves on to another museum and something new takes its place.

By the numbers

When a work turns 25 it moves on to another museum, so the count changes every autumn.
