Area of responsibility

Funen Art Museum is the only institution on Funen which has a collection of Danish art from 1750 to today.

The Funen Art Museum works with the history of art from 1750 and onward, Danish concrete and constructive art and art from the local area.

With regard to the art from the local area, the museum collects artworks from Funen that date back to around 1920 when the concept of a local art was obliterated by the increased freedom of movement for artists.  Nowadays the local artists are primarily catered for by the museum’s hosting of their exhibitions.

The museum shares its educational obligations on Funen with many other museums in the region such as Brandts Klædefabrik, Johannes Larsen Museet in Kerteminde and Faaborg Museum for Fynsk Malerkunst.
