MOMus-Museum of Contemporary Art

It's impressive. There is a good permanent collection with some pieces of Niki Saint Phalle and Takis. But also contemporary Greek artists. A great expo of Marianna Ignataki blew my mind. The reception was pretty good.

I wanted to visit this museum because it's the best art museum in Thessaloniki. However, I must say that I didn't find any historical integrity or meaningful arrangement in the museum's permanent collection. I understand that the museum is organized with contributions from collectors, but I think the curation needs to be improved to better understand Thessaloniki and contemporary Greek art. Still, I enjoyed it, and the staff was very attentive.

Interesting exhibits, a museum that should be visited if you are in Thessaloniki. Friendly people who work in the museum. For every recommendation!

As someone who visits Tate Modern quite often, I was looking forward to visit a contemporary art museum in another country. I love it! There’s a huge range of different works and styles to see, all descriptions are in Greek and English, and the building itself is airy and just lovely to walk through. Especially happy to see female and also queer artists being shown, because we all know that it’s still a struggle in quite a lot of museums and representation matters. I also had an avocado and egg bread at the cafe, which was delicious and the service was kind and cheerful. The only downside: Finding the entrance is overly complicated if you’re from out of town. So I took a picture for everyone struggling like I did.

MOMus is an incredible modern art museum with various artists and sculptures. It is a cozy museum that requires all your precious time! 🩷

A nice selection of contemporary Greek art with a mixture of permanent collection and temporary exhibitions. The museum looks a little tired and the curation of some of the permanent collection was curious - some interesting bronze sculptures that would of been nice to see in the round but were crammed into a corner in front of drawings. The staff were very friendly and the admission price was very reasonable. A great selection of books in the shop and excellent sandwiches and toasties in the cafe. A quiet place with plenty of room to sit and relax if you want to escape the heat.

Fascinating! One of the best places in Thessaloniki. I wasn't a big fan of contemporary art but the museum impressed me and was very interesting. The prices in July 2023 were: 4€ adult, 2€ students, free of charge for disabled and kids. Getting to the place is a bit complicated but you have to follow the arrows. Highly recommended ⭐

I supposed I just don't like this kind of art... Felt like a wasted empty space.
