Museum of Contemporary Art Cleveland "MOCA"

• Joe Nassif★★★★★3 months ago

  Went to the Cleveland Museum of Art recently and honestly didn’t expect to like it as much as I did. The place is huge and super clean, and there’s a really nice mix of classic and modern pieces. You can easily spend a few hours just walking around. The best part is it’s free, which is kind of crazy for how nice it is. The building itself is beautiful too, especially the glass atrium. Definitely worth checking out if you’re in the area.

  The place is free, if you live in Ohio, but 10 dollars, if you don’t live there. It had some art hanged there. Only been in the place for 20-30 mins.

  This is such a wonderful institution! The museum is FREE - which allows everyone to access the art, and makes me love it even more. The building is modern, spacious, with huge ceilings, stretching the span of the entire building in places. Everything is hard edges, odd angles, and big, big space. Each floor is generally dedicated to one or two artists, and with only a few floors in the one building, it's a manageable amount of work to see. You can breeze through it in about a half hour if you are super fast, but you need at least an hour to really look at everything. It's a place that if you wanted to sit with every piece in every show for a few minutes, you could, and you'd have time left over - in a good way. I often feel overwhelmed at large art institutions but this is very manageable in scale, and approachable in content. I've only visited three times so far, and every time I go to Cleveland this is on my must-do list. I have never been disappointed, and have always found I connect deeply with at least one artist each show. This is a great place to go, especially if you don't like or enjoy to go to either museums or art museums specifically.

  Small modern art museum with changing exhibitions. Apparently it’s free for local Ohioans but $10 for adults living out of state. We particularly liked third floor which had an interactive room where you could make your own drawings and “build a home” which fit the exhibits (regarding repurposed materials to create housing and unhoused people). The fourth floor has the largest number of pieces; I was blown away by a lot of them. I sat to observe/process several pieces for a bit. Also love the observation deck and the giant hand sculpture outside.

  The building itself is very pretty and very interesting. There's really not much in the building. It's sort of a once and done kind of thing. There is a pretty cool huge hand outside that is worthwhile to see
