Overview & History

The Museum of Contemporary Art Zagreb (Muzej suvremene umjetnosti, MSU) is Croatia's largest contemporary-art institution, housed in a striking cantilevered modernist building that opened in 2009 in Novi Zagreb. Its holdings run to roughly twelve thousand artworks by Croatian and international artists, shown across a permanent collection and a program of rotating temporary exhibitions. The building itself, with its long elevated galleries and concrete plaza, is as much a draw as the art inside.
