Fodor's Expert Review MOCAK Museum of Contemporary Art in Krakow

The MOCAK Museum opened its doors in 2010 in the up-and-coming district of Podgórze. It aspires to present the very latest in the arts, both Polish and international. Temporary exhibitions are often centred around a theme, such as "art and money," "art and sports," or "art and medicine," while the permanent exhibition showcases the Museum's own collection, which is still growing. The building, designed by Italian architect Claudio Nardi, has a very modern feel but at the same time, it respects the historical context. In addition to galleries, MOCAK houses a very pleasant cafeteria serving quality coffee and cakes, and there's a museum bookshop where you can stock up on souvenirs.
