Art museum in Belgrade, Serbia
The Museum of African Art is the oldest institution in Southeast Europe dedicated exclusively to African Art. Located in the Senjak neighborhood of Belgrade, Serbia, the museum was founded in 1977 and is the only museum in Serbia dedicated to the arts and culture of Africa. The museum presents itself as an anti-colonial institution, meaning it opposes the control of one land by another and the exploitation of resources. This distinguishes it from other European collections of African Art. Its artifacts were not acquired through colonization, plunder, or exploitation but were instead received as gifts from African nations.
