Mission Statement
American Friends of Statens Museum for Kunst creates opportunities in Denmark and in the United States for people to broaden their understanding of and deepen their ties to Danish art by supporting and participating in the collection, exhibitions and activities of the Museum in DK and US.
About This Cause
AFSMK was founded in September 2009 to strengthen the ties between the National Gallery of Denmark (SMK) and the American public. The organization has been established exclusively to support the charitable, educational, and scientific functions of SMK. The relationship between AFSMK and the National Gallery of Denmark is a traditional “friends of” relationship. AFSMK has determined that the National Gallery of Denmark engages in charitable and educational activities that are germane to the purposes of AFSMK, and that, by supporting SMK projects in both the US and Denmark, AFSMK advances its own purposes. The primary objectives of the AFSMK are: 1) To promote awareness and knowledge of Danish art in the U.S. and among Americans who visit or live in Denmark. 2) To encourage and promote cultural and artistic exchanges between SMK and American institutions of art within the areas of transnational exhibitions, educational programs, and professional and scholarly exchanges. 3) To help fund the National Gallery of Denmark’s work on building ever-stronger links between the heritage it safeguards and contemporary art and culture; work which takes the form of exhibitions, acquisitions of artworks, rehangs of the collections, and art conservation. 4) To maintain and improve visiting conditions for American and other English-speaking visitors by ensuring quality translations of research publications, online collection databases, the SMK website and other credited materials issued by the Gallery.
