"For top contemporary art from Croatia and abroad, don’t miss a trip to this fascinating museum, located in a modern building a short cab ride from the city center. Start with the permanent exhibition Collection in Motion , which features hundreds of works placed around the building. Then, hop on Double Slide (an interactive installation by German artist Carsten Höller that connects every floor of the museum’s northern wing) and check out Battlefield (an audio installation by Croatian artist Antun Božićević on the rooftop terrace). MSU (as you’ll see the museum’s name abbreviated) also offers a rich repertoire of events, including music performances, film screenings, and even parties."

It's a nice modern museum with the art well displayed. The signage is both in Croatian and English. Admission is higher than most museums in Zagreb at 13 Euros for seniors and students and €19 for other adults. A slide can be taken down from the second floor. It was fun- I did it. It was pretty fast and had turns. You end up outside (in the cold this time of the year) and have to find the entrance to re-enter.

Visiting this museum will increase your understanding of the meaning of the word "contemporary" next to "art". You will find pieces of art that excite, shake, surprise, appall, bewilder. You will not be left indifferent.

Some of the most intriguing and fascinating artworks I have seen. Really surprising and evocative artworks displayed over the two sections of the gallery. I had a fantastic time looking and feeling the interactive exhibits. I highly recommend it to you!

It was also interesting that we had the opportunity to make our own sculptures and give them to the exhibition. Additionally the staff members were very kind and enthusiastic

Huge space and barely used for any compositions, arts and exhibitions worth to watch closely. Sad realities for Croation artists and their creativity nowadays. Hopefully it will change in near future. Otherwise why to maintain this huge object for.... so called Croatian modern art. ?!

Powerful exhibitions both in the permanent and temporary galleries. A nice please to rest; Café attached to the building offering beautiful views of the city and plenty of refreshments. Lovely gallery shop with a nice selection of books postcards T-shirts, etc..

This is the largest and most modern art museum in Croatia. It was originally established in 1954 as the City Gallery of Contemporary Art. The new building, designed by Igor Franić, officially opened in 2009. The museum holds a collection of approximately 12,000 contemporary artworks, with around 600 pieces on permanent display. Its holdings include major works by Croatian contemporary artists as well as a selection of international contemporary art, making it a central institution for modern visual culture in the region.

This museum gave me the opportunity to learn about the history and culture of Eastern Europe, and of course, especially the Croatian and Serbian regions. As we re-embrace civilisation after the collapse of the Soviet Union, we can't help but need to think about what true freedom and democracy are. Of course, the respectful activities exhibited in the museum about the treatment of the mentally ill were also impressive, we all need a world of love and peace and an end to violence and war!
