The Slovak National Gallery (SNG) was established in 1948 as the highest state art historical, collecting and cultural-educational institution. It directed its activities towards acquisition, research, preservation, restoration and presentation of the cultural heritage in all disciplines of the creative arts. At first, acquisition activity was oriented especially towards painting, sculpture, drawing and graphic arts, but later it was extended to artefacts of applied and naive art, as well as the areas of scenography, artistic photography, architecture and a collection of inter-media tendencies.
The SNG publishes a large amount of literature about art. It has the largest library of publications about art in Slovakia, an archive of creative arts and a central catalogue. It is situated in the Late Baroque building by the River Danube in Bratislava.
