to interact with many diverse circles of Polish society, and to communicate with the public and international artistic circles. The collection, exhibition time, as well as a multimedia program is supported by information and education addressed to a number of social and age groups, with particular emphasis on high schools and universities. The activities of the museum serve to raise the level of knowledge and interest in the arts with references to tradition and history, and develop and promote international cooperation with a view to forming a European cultural identity. This applies to both the new museum and artistic and scientific exchanges with artists and people working in the area of culture – art historians, exhibitions curators, art critics – as well as participation in international museum artwork circuits and projects in the area of contemporary culture. Thanks to its unique locations (of all three – Museum at Pańska, Museum over Vistula as well as the future seat) and historical surroundings the museum aims to stimulate intercultural dialogue. The attractiveness of the new building, combined with a favorable location and dynamics of the museum will be used to create a space for recreation and leisure for residents of and visitors to the city of Warsaw.
