Mongolian National Modern Art Gallery (Mongolian: Монголын Уран Зургийн Галерей) is a government-supported art gallery in Ulaanbaatar. It exhibits Mongolian modern art.[1] There are about 4200 pieces in the museum's permanent collection, with only 7-8% being on display. The museum is constantly collecting new pieces. In addition, the museum also organizes temporary exhibitions and also shows them aboard.[2]

History

The gallery separated from the Fine Arts Museum of Mongolia in 1991.[1] In 2020, 17 paintings were transferred here from the Green Palace, where they had been kept since 1986. Prior to 1986, the 17 works were located at the Fine Arts Zanabazar Museum.[3]
