Building International Connections Between Corporate Art Collections

Chiara Galbusera, curator of the Austrian Central Bank, and Dr. Doris Leutgeb, head of the Generali Foundation’s Collection, visited the contemporary collection realized by the Central Bank of Hungary. Kinga Hamvai, head of MNB Arts and Culture, presented the collection that is displayed in the bank’s buildings. Building connections between corporate collections provides an opportunity to jointly explore global trends in contemporary art and strengthen networks across Europe. Furthermore, these relationships play an important role in promoting knowledge exchange between corporate collections, deepening connections between different players of the art world, and even can present new opportunities for artists to showcase their works.
