The Mongolian
National Modern Art Gallery collects preserves and exhibits
modern and contemporary Mongolian artworks. The collection serves an important
role in documenting the social, historical and cultural evolution of Mongolia.
In 1991, MNMAG separated from the Fine Arts Museum of Mongolia and became an independent organization, dedicated to increasing public appreciation for
Mongolian modern visual artworks.
The MNMAG is a government-supported
arts organization. Its collection forms the basis for providing aesthetic
experiences and art education to the public. The gallery’s unique collection
consists of Mongolian modern and contemporary paintings, sculptures, prints,
crafts and other new forms of art and artefacts which possess originality and a
Mongolian identity. The artworks cover a range of themes from history and
cultural traditions to landscapes and contemporary expressions.
