The department of the Lëtzebuerger Konschtarchiv (‘Luxembourg Art Archive’) is a research centre within the MNAHA, dedicated to preserving, studying and promoting Luxembourg’s visual arts history by facilitating archival work, scholarly research and the dissemination of knowledge. Rooted in Luxembourg, yet reaching far beyond its borders, the Konschtarchiv develops projects whose scope extends to a global scale. Through the systematic documentation and cataloguing of contextual sources, it provides essential resources for understanding the development of Luxembourg’s artistic landscape as well as its connections with foreign countries and the reciprocal influences between them. Since 2023 the department been building a growing archive that includes artist estates, press articles, flyers and publications. Its team conducts research and leads various projects, notably the ongoing development of the Lëtzebuerger Konschtlexikon, a biographical and relational dictionary and integrated database, which is now accessible via the European Art Net.
