Gifts of Friendship presents nearly 150 works donated to the Muzeum Sztuki in Łódź collection in 2024–26 by eighty artists from dozens of countries. Their gesture allows us to reflect on the significance of artist solidarity in the modern world and the relations between the art scene and the public museum. It emphasizes the role of trust, friendship, and community based on long-term collaboration as forces shaping the institutional collection.
