MOCO โข London Musuem, by Grillocracy on Aug 11, 2024 21:11:31 GMT 1, Interesting. I have been to both of the other Moco museums (Amsterdam and Barcelona) and really enjoyed them, though my kids referred to them as "Instagram museums" which is a good representation given the fact the majority of the crowd is just there to get their selfies in front of the more recognizable Banksy, Murakami, Warhol, or Haring pieces with little interest in artists that aren't as mainstream.

MOCO โข London Musuem, by George Poppit on Aug 12, 2024 8:38:19 GMT 1, A good concept to make lots of money from tourists but not really a proper museum. Itโs better to wait to see the major auction preview days which are far superior and free. Chris Levine is promoting his work going into Moco - is it the same as his work being โacquiredโ by an actual museumโs collection?

Moco is a gallery disguised as a museum. I think the owner Lionel Logchies sold oldtimers first. That market crashed and they started doing some things in the art busines ๐คทโโ๏ธ |

It's a commercial enterprise, yes, but I don't think that automatically makes it bad. Moco is quite an established name in the art world these days. It's not just a gallery sellng limited edition prints. |

Call it what it is Taxed. An artgallery disguised as a museum I don't know why you are obsessing about this. In some countries the terms "museum" and "art gallery" are basically interchangeable. "Art gallery" does not mean things are for sale. |

O? Weโre not talking artgallery here that doesnโt sell works are we. So. Can you give us an example which countries you are talking about? Or be even more specific and tell us about what museums work as a gallery. Just so we know.

The MOCO in Barcelona is fantastic. They also do not sell their pieces or advertise for a gallery.
Not sure about across the pond but in the US we call these establishments museums.

I really appreciate it when members take the time to share photos from events/exhibitions they have visited. Loved seeing the close up shots of works as well.

Well I feel sorry for people like Paul Insect who, Iโm sure of that, mean well. I hope the artists with some integrity realised in an early stadium they needed to get out of the b game. Not much good came of it these last years.
