Museums fulfil a significant function in this regard, and therefore the New Carlsberg Foundation supports the museums’ efforts to collect art for their collections, partly by supporting the acquisition of works of art and partly by donating works from the Ny Carlsberg Foundation’s own holdings.

Danish museums can apply for support for the acquisition of artworks or for donations of artworks, and foreign museums can apply for support for the acquisition or donation of works by Danish artists.

Applications are accepted on an ongoing basis. For specific dates, see under ‘Application deadlines’. In connection with the purchase of works at auction, an urgent application can be submitted.
