National Gallery of Art

The National Gallery of Art was established on January 11, 1954, although its origins may be traced back to 1946 with the operation of Art Pinakoteka. The National Gallery of Art is a state museum as well as a research and scientific institute. Its goal is to enhance the collection, conserve, research, and promote national historic treasures in the area of visual arts. Through temporary exhibits, the National Gallery of Arts also promotes key trends to the public, ranging from visual art tradition to current approaches presently used in Albania and throughout the globe. The National Gallery of Arts’ purpose is to inspire and educate future generations about the visual arts. We want everyone to feel as if they are a part of the amazing world of art.
