Museum of Contemporary Art, Contemporary art museum in Bangkok, Thailand

The Museum of Contemporary Art is a modern building in Bangkok with several floors displaying around 800 artworks in permanent and rotating exhibitions. The galleries feature paintings, sculptures, and large-scale installations from more than 100 different Thai artists.

The museum was founded in 2012 from the vision of Boonchai Bencharongkul to create a dedicated space for contemporary Thai artists. It quickly became an important center for the country's contemporary art scene.
