Museum of Modern Art

The latest - and probably most debated - addition to the Warsaw cultural scene. It seems that the building itself has stirred emotions, but this is the whole point of architecture and art, I guess. What I like about the building is that it prompts one to stop and look. It challenges conventions and triggers curiosity about what's hidden inside. And the interior is simply amazing, flooded with natural light and space - lots of space. This is important because the building doesn't feel claustrophobic but at the same time the visitor doesn't feel crushed by the sheer size of it. The internal staircases and landings seem to allude to M.C. Escher's drawings, while providing excellent crowd control through parallel access routes to each floor. At the same time, the lines of the internal structures merge into beautiful symmetries, depending on the angle of viewing. It's a masterpiece of aesthetics. The exhibitions are interesting and poignant, often with strong challenging messages. The visitor can relax and reflect in one of the beautiful wood paneled rooms, each with a wide window offering different views of the city, or on the top floor open terrace. In my view, the museum is absolutely worth visiting, both for the exhibition and for the fantastic architecture. After complete destruction and half a century of communist austerity, Warsaw is very much a work in progress, on the urban, cultural and healing levels. This museum and the surrounding square reflect just that.

I loved it! There are so many rooms with surprising exhibits that are weird, thought-provoking, and cool. The space itself is beautiful, featuring huge ceilings, wood, stone, and metal, which create a modern and calming atmosphere. I highly recommend getting the audio guide, as it really helps you understand what’s happening and enhances the overall experience. The music inside adds a great touch, too. Plus, there’s a nice café downstairs where you can relax and grab a bite to eat.

The building is modern and impressive with endless stairway, huge wooden and stainless doors. Lots of space. Nice exhibition, but weren't enough exhibits for me, just maybe 3-5 works were worthwhile. A question has been nagging at me: How was this building allowed to be build in front of the national landmark?

It’s not a place that can really carry the weight of being presented to people under the name of “Modern Art.” Inside this huge building, there are only a few so-called artistic objects being exhibited in large empty rooms, and it really didn’t satisfy me at all. I expected it to be much more filled and engaging. In my opinion, it’s a place that ends up being quite a waste of time. I would recommend spending that time visiting much better museums instead.

You might argue that the exterior resembles a giant lego brick and simply not like it. In the end though its whats inside that matters. I really enjoyed the exhibits. As always not all of them were to my taste but its Modern Art after all. The whole museum is well designed inside and the clean white interior reminds me of New York’s Museum of Modern Art. I like the design of the stairs and gigantic windows showing the important landmarks.

I enjoyed some of the art pieces but they were all rather confusing and difficult to understand at times. The statues sculptures stood out to me the most, and the layout of the building was nice. When I went there were also tickets for students sold for just 1zł, which I also found as a nice touch.

I always try to visit a contemporary art museum in every city I go to. I really liked this one — it impressed me. To be honest, I didn’t expect much, but I was pleasantly surprised by both the interior layout, which was very convenient, and the exhibitions themselves, which truly impressed me. I definitely recommend this museum to all contemporary art lovers. You can buy tickets online, but I came on a weekday and there was no queue. The lovely ladies at the ticket counter explained everything to me and pointed out where to start. I highly recommend it. The only thing I was looking for and didn’t find was a gift shop. I usually like to buy a small souvenir, but there wasn’t one — just a café.

Beautiful! They have a nice permanent exhibition with amazing Polish artists. Also, a temporary exhibition where you can find something you will enjoy for sure. Ncie building, people, I didn't have to put my bag in a locker, so I enjoyed. It's a square and sometimes I was a bit unsure if I visited that part of not, because there are 4 doors and somehow they are 2 connected with each other.
