The Kropyvnytskyi archive is a private collection of documents related to the activities of the Kyiv Art Institute in the second half of the 1920s. The institute's rector, Ivan Vrona, appointed Marian Kropyvnytskyi an assistant for the research office of the experimental visual arts, headed by the avant-garde painter Kazimir Malevich. Kropyvnytskyi served as Malevich's personal assistant in 1928-1930. The archive contains minutes of meetings, Kropyvnytskyi's notes of Malevich's lectures, and copies of Malevich's unpublished lectures. Since the archive of the Institute was destroyed, the Kropyvnytskyi collection is probably the only collection that contains documents about the Institute's history in the interwar period.

Miodrag Mica Popovic (1923-1996) was a painter, art critic, writer and academician. Popovic's lifestyle itself can be described as in cultural opposition to the regime and government that imposed its own ideological forms. Until the end of his life, he clearly demonstrated his incompatibility with the system, which let him stay faithful to the ideal of free thinking and expression. The images from the series the ‘Scenes Painting’ [Slikarstvo prizora] stem from the period between 1968 to 1971. Through that series the artist critized the social and political circumstances in socialist Yugoslavia.

The Museum of Lies was founded by Reinhard Zabka, the Dadaist artist also known as Richard von Gigantikow, in 1990 during the political changes of the GDR. It came about by the private initiative of the artist, who was active in the non-conformist and avant-garde art scene during the GDR period. Its origins lie in an art house established by the artist during the GDR in Babe, in the state of Brandenburg. From its very beginning, the museum has been a non-conformist project that has aimed at breaking taboos of content just as those of institutions. After relocating to a rural area of Saxony, the art house was transformed into its current form of the Museum of Lies.
