Private art museums and galleries of international importance offer direct access to significant contemporary collections. These institutions, operated by foundations, collectors, or corporations, present works outside the traditional public museum landscape. Many of these venues occupy converted industrial buildings, historic residences, or purpose-built structures that connect art with architecture. The selection includes establishments such as Benesse Art Site Naoshima on the Japanese island of Naoshima, where museum buildings by Tadao Ando house works by contemporary artists. Dia:Beacon, north of New York City, displays minimalist and conceptual art in a former 1920s Nabisco factory. In Berlin, Sammlung Boros opens its doors in a converted World War II bunker. Additional examples include Fondation Beyeler in Basel with works of classical modernism, Louisiana Museum of Modern Art north of Copenhagen overlooking the Øresund strait, and Museo Jumex in Mexico City for Latin American contemporary art.
