Museum opening
The MOCAK had been inaugurated on May 19, 2011.
The building was designed by the Italian architects Claudio Nardi and Leonardo Maria Proli.
The building of The Museum of Contemporary Art in Krakow was erected on the site of the former Schindler's Factory, in the post-industrial district of Zabłocie, which in recent years has recently undergone a vigorous renaissance.
MOCAK will be compiling, archiving and making accessible to the public an international collection of art, so as to demonstrate the changes which happened during the last 20 years, while relating the most recent artistic phenomena to the tradition of conceptual art. The programme of the institution also encompasses educational activity as well as research and publication projects.
