Donations
The Moderna Museet Collection
Thanks to strategic acquisitions and donations from the Friends of the Moderna Museet (MMV), The American Friends and private collectors, the Museum now has one of few international collections that can deliver a conclusive presentation of art from the dawn of modernism to today. The collection includes key works by Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dalí, Henri Matisse, Meret Oppenheim and Robert Rauschenberg, and also more recent acquisitions of pieces by contemporary artists such as Doris Salcedo, Gabriel Orozco, Olafur Eliasson, Isa Genzken, Wade Guyton and Klara Lidén.
