• We focus on the cultural dimensions of people’s lives, which shape each society in different ways.
• We are committed to offering new insights, combined with aesthetic enjoyment and emotional engagement.
• Our work involves placing some of our own collections in a new light.
• We always handle topics in relation to the here and now.

We see ourselves as a partner and a forum of exchange for the public. We consciously seek a dialogue with our visitors, because we consider the museum to be a reflective institution.
