Ramin Salsali As Claude Monet said, there is no need to use any complicated statements to express the passion and love for the art and culture. Salsali Private Museum (SPM) is the reflection of this passion in the most simple way. The simplicity of the concept of SPM seeks to eliminate any possible intimidation and/or hesitation by any individuals, not only to start to collect art, but also to showcase their collection. ''I advocate and appeal for the social responsibility of all individuals and corporations to contribute to the development of creativity in their communities by supporting art and culture, through collecting and sharing art with the public. We all have a responsibility and a duty to maintain community values. Supporting art belongs to these values and is the universal language for a peaceful communication among the cultures. A museum of art is the responsive tool and a supportive platform in this context. It is a modern temple for tranquility, love and inspiration.'' Open to the public in 2011, the Salsali Private Museum considers its position as being a cultural base and a platform for new and established collectors, acting as a catalyst for creating a new generation of collector enthusiasts. SPM is not only the first private museum of contemporary art in the region, but also the first collector center in the world to provide a free service to local and international collectors, giving them the opportunity to connect with each other, with artists, galleries and the creative community of the region. Salsali Private Museum is a contribution to the unique process of the development of the United Arab Emirates and Dubai as an evolving hub for the art and culture of the Middle East. It is a true example for the social responsibility and commitment of all individuals and corporations to contribute to the development of creativity in their communities. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Salsali Private Museum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
