Meet Mr. DOB

One of Murakami's most iconic creations Mr. DOB, makes a bold appearance at Moco Museum Amsterdam. First introduced in 1993, Mr. DOB is a mouse-like figure with exaggerated features.

(Smiling) Flowers

Murakami's use of flowers is another key motif in his work. His vibrant floral compositions radiate joy and positivity, but also hint at hidden trauma and sorrow.

The Moco Museum is one of our favorite places to visit in Amsterdam! It's smaller than some of the big museums in the city, which actually makes it perfect for a quick and enjoyable visit without feeling rushed. The space is beautifully designed with so many cute and creative photo spots.

Situated near all the major museums in Amsterdam, Moco Museum is a cozy yet inspiring spot filled with contemporary & street art. You can explore at your own pace across a few floors, with works by icons like Yayoi Kusama, Banksy, and more.

Nice modern museum and Moco Amsterdam is the second Moco we visited after the one in Barcelona. I recommend it, and our kids loved the modern / contemporary art more than the classic style museums.

Today's visit to the Moco Museum in Amsterdam was a highlight of our trip. Housed in a beautiful townhouse just off Museumplein, Moco manages to blend history and rebellion, elegance and disruption, all under one quirky roof.

I recently visited the Moco Museum in Amsterdam and had a fantastic experience! The museum features an impressive collection of modern and contemporary art, including some iconic works by Banksy - definitely a highlight for me. The pieces were thought-provoking and well-curated, making the visit truly memorable. If you're into street art, pop art, or just want to see some bold, creative works (like Banksy's), Moco Museum is a must-visit in Amsterdam. Highly recommend!

Opened in 2016 by prominent local gallerists, Moco Museum continues to hog headlines, helped along by a magnificent setting in Villa Alsberg, a 1904 architectural beauty on Museumplein. With its heady mix of Pop Art and works by graffiti rock stars, Moco has enough contemporary swagger to make the neighboring Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum quake in their old-school boots.
