The new visions on the development and display of fine arts, as well as the new acquisitions increased the number of artworks at the gallery's disposal and brought about the need for a larger and more functional new building. The gallery worked in two main directions: exhibiting the permanent collection and opening temporary exhibitions of Albanian and foreign artists. After much toil and extensive efforts, the Gallery of Arts officially opened to the public in Tirana on 11 January 1954. Pinakoteka was the first institution of fine arts in the country. The beginnings of the institution can be traced back to the endeavors of a group of Albanian artists and the Arts Committee of 1946. In the meantime, plans include the digitization of art work at the AlbaFilm studios.
The works are expected to last until end of 2023. In October 2021, the gallery was temporarily closed to allow for significant construction work to take place such as the revamping of the current structure and the building of a new one nearby.
It features the work of well-known Albanian artist, such as Sadik Kaceli. The National Museum of Fine Arts ( Albanian: Galeria Kombëtare e Arteve) is a national art museum in Tirana, Albania, under the supervision of the Ministry of Culture.
