To favour an historical approach to Momo’s artwork, the permanent Collection is organised in a chronological order and the works of art presented are always situated in their historical context. Considerable part of the collection is made up of works of art from the 1964 to the present.
The Collection brings together three dimensions: a historical perspective of a certain time/period; a theme in certain area of research; and a specific place.
Since its founding in 2017, the Sahlan Momo Foundation has sold works of art from its collection to earn annual income and to build its cash endowment. The Foundation’s sales programme includes themed exhibitions at galleries both in The Netherlands and abroad, as well as sales of individual works to institutions, private collectors, and galleries. Funds raised in this way are used exclusively to support its grantmaking program.
