MOCAK is located in the industrial sheds of the former Emalia, later Schindler Factory, which were extended by the harmoniously inscribed exhibition pavilion of equally industrial character. There are two floors — ground and underground one, housing exhibition spaces, storage spaces, reception, cloakroom, media hall, a bookstore and a café. The fragmented mass with spacious interiors, shed roofs, large glazing and the used modern materials create a cohesive, attractive and functional space devoted to expositions of the recent art.
