In 1911, the creation of a museum of contemporary art will have been unpublished and pioneer in the international context.
The division of the former National Museum of Fine Arts into the National Museum of Ancient Art, which inherited from that the works carried out until 1850 and continued installed in the Palace of Janelas Verdes, and National Museum of Contemporary Art, consisting of all works subsequent to this date, having been installed in the Convent of St. Francis of the City, in a space adjacent to the Academy of Fine Arts. The installation in this space, although provisionally, came symbolically and opportunely situate it in the area frequented by the tertulias of the generations represented in the museum. It occupied the old halls where the expositions of the romantics and naturalists had taken place, in spaces annexed to the convent.
The collection of Portuguese art, from 1850 to the present, constitutes the most important Portuguese collection of contemporary art, including painting, sculpture, drawing, video, among others media.
Located in the historic center of Lisbon, the Chiado Museum - National Museum of Contemporary Art, founded in 1911 as the National Museum of Contemporary Art, was entirely rebuilt in 1994 under the project of the French architect Jean-Michel Willmotte.
The program of temporary exhibitions, of particular relevance, occupying the entire exhibition space, is organized in three main lines: it focuses on works, artists and movements represented in the collection, proposing revisions and new research tracks on the subjects covered; brings to Portugal international exhibitions that intersect with the museum's collections; and features works by contemporary international artists.
