A Pioneering Private Museum (Perched On The Danube) In The Former Soviet Bloc

“Danubiana, a small contemporary art museum that rose up in 2000, on the barren tip of a narrow peninsula in the Danube River, near Bratislava, Slovakia. It was the idea of a Dutch businessman and a Slovak gallery owner whose chance encounter in 1994 led to the opening of one of the first private museums in the formerly Communist countries of Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union.”
