IN ART WE TRUST
From the bustling Museumplein of Amsterdam to the charming Gothic Quarter of Barcelona - and soon the cultural hub of London’s West End - Moco Museum is the global hub of art lovers and the art curious. This is the proud home to modern classics by the likes of Jean-Michel Basquiat, Andy Warhol, Yayoi Kusama, KAWS, Marina Abramović, Keith Haring, Kehinde Wiley and Tracey Emin, as well as new immersive wonders by contemporary stars. 

Across all areas of the museum, at Moco we work together to connect millions of viewers to carefully curated collections that inspire us all to defy expectations, follow our hearts and dream harder. Every day, our vision evolves and our reach grows. We trust in art as the vehicle to transport our collective consciousness into a more free, enlightened state. We are bold, pink, disruptive and playful – we are Moco.
