About
Brze činjenice: Bright colors and bold geometric shapes sit side by side with intimate black-and-white portraits, so visitors often feel like they're walking through a lively visual conversation. Audio guides and bilingual labels help decode more than 500 artworks in the permanent collection, and temporary shows bring contemporary performances into the galleries.
Istaknuto: Step into a sunlit courtyard where five metal benches face a low fountain, people pause to listen to low-volume recorded interviews with artists while tasting the coffee from the onsite café. An upstairs room sometimes hosts single-artist screenings and intimate talks capped at 40 seats, so you can hear a curator explain a painting in a voice that feels almost like a neighbor sharing a secret.
Insider tips
- Wear comfortable shoes, galleries are compact but spread over multiple levels.
- Non-flash photography is usually allowed in permanent collection rooms, aim for the glass-walled atrium and exterior sculpture garden for the best shots.
- Start with temporary exhibitions then visit the permanent collection to avoid backtracking.
- Visit the museum cafe for a coffee break between floors, weekdays are quieter if you want to linger.
