Culture Index exists to catalog cultural institutions online, and highlight the best practices that inspire us.
Launching with a focus on museums and building from there, we are a resource for both research and discovery. Browse information about online communications, and discover ideas with examples of what’s possible for cultural institutions in the digital space.
As a community project facilitated by Base, we invite you to use and contribute to this growing resource.
Muzeul National de Arta Contemporana
If the function of a museum is to preserve cultural memory or to retrospect, why would it make sense to create a space for archiving a present still too close for reflection? MNAC Bucharest has answered this question from the very beginning, through the mission it took on, by standing first and foremost as a creative laboratory for researching both past and present. The nuanced environment of contemporary art has found its mirror in MNAC Bucharest, through the diverse projects the museum proposes to specialists and the public alike — exhibitions, workshops, debates, shows, festivals. This is why the MNAC Bucharest’s activity integrates not only the evolution of visual culture but also social and political changes, the evolution of mentalities and ideological fractures in contemporary Romania.
