Visit the Moco Museum in Amsterdam
Immerse yourself in a world of modern art. Enter into the art-tastic contemporary museum of MOCO, an independent museum that holds classic and independent art you need to see.
Admit it: it can be overwhelming trying to figure out which museums to visit in a city. Maybe you want something a little different from what’s thrown at you from every tourist desk? We’re here to help, and recommend the boutique museum for modern, contemporary, and street art: Moco Museum. It’s got the quality of a museum with the charm of being a smaller, more intimate in an astounding mansion.
A boutique museum is basically a space dedicated for art that focuses on certain collections, fields, or ideas by recognized artists. The museum is situated in Villa Alsberg, which is a manor conveniently located in the heart of Amsterdam.
The Moco Museum is privately owned and operated by the Logchies — a couple who choose carefully cultivated art pieces from art collectors around the world. The museum donates the proceeds to different charities: meaning you get to experience incredible art for a good cause!
All the art you need: although his identity remains a mystery, there are few modern artists as well known as Banksy. The Moco Museum has been given permission to display a collection of Banksy’s pieces.
Some other artists you can find throughout Moco include: Jean-Michel Basquiat, KAWS, Keith Haring, Jeff Koons, Yaoyi Kusama, and even Andy Warhol. Moco’s latest addition is a collaboration with Studio Irma. Reflecting Forward is a digital immersive art exhibit that focuses on connections and how it will impact the future. Connect all the art styles and ideas yourself after visiting Moco!
