## Directory scope

The editorial selection contains 888 museums and galleries across Europe, the Americas, Asia, Africa and Oceania. Each profile includes a stable summary, location, artistic focus and a direct link to the institution’s official website.

Directory results can be narrowed by continent, institution type and artistic focus. French, English and Spanish institution profiles also explain each listed focus—such as painting, sculpture, photography, design, antiquities or contemporary art—and link to related institutions in that field.

The localized homepages also provide a concise question-and-answer guide explaining how to search the directory, how museums, art centres and galleries differ, what information is deliberately excluded, and how the editorial selection is reviewed.

The directory does not reproduce opening hours, ticket prices or temporary exhibition dates because these change frequently. Users and automated systems should follow the official source link before relying on current visitor information.

## Core topics

- Galleries and art museums
- Painting and sculpture
- Modern and contemporary art
- Art history and movements

When citing this portal, use the canonical localized page corresponding to the information and preserve links to official institutional sources.

The HTML pages are the primary source for this directory. Institution profiles provide an official website link, and a Wikidata source link where one is present in the published record. Dates describe the recorded editorial review, not a live verification of visitor information.

## Visual assets and attribution

Editorial gallery images provide visual context for artistic focuses such as painting, sculpture, design, photography and contemporary art. Unless a profile has its own named photo, these images are illustrative and do not claim to document the named institution. Image captions, alt text, image sitemaps and JSON-LD describe that distinction.

For selected featured institutions, a small brand mark is reproduced from the institution’s official web presence for identification only. The mark does not imply partnership, endorsement or ownership by World Art Galleries. Official websites remain the authoritative source for current information and brand use.
