Herzliya Museum of Contemporary Art, Contemporary art museum in Herzliya, Israel.
Herzliya Museum of Contemporary Art is an art museum in Herzliya displaying a collection of over 1000 artworks across multiple exhibition spaces. The building features exposed concrete surfaces and geometric forms that reflect the institution's modern character.
The museum was established in 1965 from a collection of paintings donated by Eugene da Villa. It moved to its current Brutalist-style building in 1975, becoming an important cultural landmark for the city since then.
The museum presents four annual exhibition cycles featuring works by Israeli and international artists through installations, videos, photographs, and sculptures. Visitors experience a mix of local and global artistic perspectives throughout the year.
The museum offers educational programs, workshops, and visual arts courses for visitors of different levels. You can navigate easily through the exhibition spaces and take as much time as you need to explore the collection.
Since 2000, the building combines a military memorial with an art museum, featuring separate entrances that keep these two functions distinct. This unusual pairing of conflicting purposes makes the location singular in its function.
