English:Museum van Deinze en Leiestreek (Q172541)

The art collection of the current 'Museum of Deinze and the Leie region' consists exclusively of works made by artists living and/or working in the Leie region - as was intended at its establishment. The regional limitation has been a conscious and well thought-out choice. Consequently, the collection has not suffered from disintegration, a possible danger for every small museum. The Deinze Museum is a regional museum with national and even international appeal. It still maintains the original distinction between plastic arts and folk art.
