EghtesadOnline: The reports on consigning the artworks of Tehran Museum of Contemporary Art treasury section to abroad is not true, says the Minister of Culture and Islamic Guidance.

“Sending the artworks of Tehran Museum of Contemporary Art treasury section to the galleries outside Iran is not on the Ministry’s agenda,” said Reza Salehi Amiri, the Minister of Culture and Islamic Guidance.

“I have always stressed upon not sending theses artworks to the-outside-Iran galleries since the beginning of my taking charge of this Ministry,” IRNA quoted Salehi Amiri as saying.

Some media had announced of sending the artworks of Tehran Museum of Contemporary Art to galleries abroad by the Ministry of Culture and Islamic Guidance.
