The Baku Museum of Modern Art is a great place for all art lovers. Located in a deconstructivist interior, the museum is a bold and unique solution.
Firstly, it is worth noting that the museum is small, but extremely full of exhibits that reflect the work of local artists and sculptors. A ticket to visit the museum costs 10 manats.
On the ground floor of the museum there are works by local authors made in various techniques and genres. Here you can see paintings, sculptures, installations and much more. It is especially worth paying attention to the works in the field of digital art, which are very relevant and interesting.
However, the main highlight of the museum is on the second floor. The works of such world-famous masters as Picasso and Dali are presented here.
In general, the Baku Museum of Modern Art is a great place for those who want to get acquainted with the art and creativity of contemporary artists. The bold and unusual interior of the museum, as well as the variety of exhibits, make it incredibly interesting and attractive to visitors of all ages! :)

Solid 4. If you have been to St. Petersburg in the Era, Art Museum, etc., you will not find anything impressive here. Two floors and a lot of paintings. Some are not bad, some are like from the local children's school. Cheap entry price. Cons: there is nothing in Russian, there is no adequate description, the names of paintings are sometimes placed somewhere at the beginning of the room, Picasso and Dali can be skipped altogether because of this arrangement of paintings, there is an excessive confusion and a complete lack of structuring of works and rooms with them
An unexpectedly gorgeous museum! As an architect, I was particularly impressed by the deconstructivist interior: a bold decision! The exposition was pleasantly pleased and did not leave anyone indifferent. I definitely recommend everyone to visit, especially since it costs only 5 manats. The only thing I put a minus for is the guard, who began to hurry me up (!) at the beginning of the ninth, adding unnecessary nervousness and spoiling the impression of the visit as a whole. (At the ticket office, when buying a ticket, they confidently informed that the museum is open until 21:00.)
A great museum. Inexpensive, interesting exposition, lots of places to relax, interesting layout of the space. We came by chance and without any special expectations, we did not regret it, we were very satisfied.
It is interesting and Very unusual.
There are places where you can sit. There are a lot of works from different directions and authors. Everything is so unusual that after going through everything and returning to the beginning, there is no feeling of "I've already seen this."
By visiting this museum, which looks quite small (2 floors), you can get emotions and a little visual overload for the whole day
There are a lot of paintings, styles, colors, a beautiful space with a glass ceiling and flowers
The Museum of Modern Art in Baku (MoMA) opened in 2009. The initiator of the creation of the museum was the First Lady of Azerbaijan, Mehriban Aliyeva, who sought to create a platform for the demonstration and promotion of contemporary art in Azerbaijan. The project of the museum was designed by the famous architect Jean Nouvel, who created a unique space with a minimalistic design, which allows you to fully focus on the exhibits on display.

An excellent museum of modern Azerbaijani art. There are unknown authors and quite famous ones (Zakir, Tofiq Javadov). There is a sufficient amount of sculpture on the ground floor. The exposition is large, but at the same time the museum is compact. In this museum there are sketches by Dali, Picasso, Chagall and someone else from the modern world masters - but the works are not clear, but this is for my taste. And there are not many such works (they are posted on the second floor).
In general, the museum is interesting to visit, it gives an idea of the modern art of Azerbaijan and there is something to see here.
We have been to many contemporary art galleries. I can say that beautiful works are presented in Baku, and the museum itself is an excellent architectural project. And of course, take a guide, the tour from Nargiz was great!
The museum seems to be small, but right saturated. The original structure of the room. There are paintings, sculptures. And it's even better to take a guide, so it's much more interesting and informative to watch. The cost is small, but I recommend it directly. There are a couple of paintings by famous artists, such as Chagall and Picasso (literally one painting each, but there are), but they cannot be photographed. And a large exhibition of Azerbaijani artists.

A good museum, a large exposition
It is very beautiful and cozy
I especially liked the sofas, where it's nice to sit and look at the work
It was nice to see several works by Tahir Salakhov
Of the cons: it is poorly clear who the author of the painting is, the signatures are not very well made
A very large, rich museum, two floors, two dozen halls. Painting, sculpture, contemporary artists of Azerbaijan. They work until the evening, there are few people, you can comfortably wander for a long time.
Classics, Dali, Chagall, Picasso are wonderful!
Some works by local authors are very good.
But the red devil causes mixed emotions.
Let the Soviet era be a thing of the past, but someone suffered for the awards and perhaps shed blood. And here it is.
A good museum with good works, the only disadvantage (for me) is that all the paintings in different styles are scattered and the transition from one space to another, precisely from the point of view of the styles of work, is unorganized. And so, I liked the museum itself. Picasso's work had to work hard to find, but it was worth it. Azerbaijani artists are not bad either. I put, in general, 5 stars. I think tourists should visit.
The best art museum in Baku (in my opinion). It was very nice to be so surprised. The building, the atmosphere, the collection, the hanging, the selection and the concept are very energizing. By the way, there is a bit of Chagall, Picasso and Dali (in a separate room where it is forbidden to take pictures)
A gorgeous museum! Huge. Interesting. Two floors. The entrance is 5 manats. There is no WiFi inside, but a kind girl helps to call a taxi at the checkout. 👍
A magnificent museum. I highly recommend you to visit.
Mainly exhibits of local artists-sculptors are presented. There is a small section with works of art by foreign authors.
I spent several hours in the museum with pleasure, each new exhibit made me wonder, study, imagine ...
Interesting shapes, color combinations, contrasts - the visual pleasure did not leave my children indifferent.
We went to the museum to pass the time before leaving and did not regret it. The ticket costs 5 manats, the big light museum is located on 2 floors. I am not a fan of such art and sometimes wonder if these artists have an art education. In this museum I was interested, I looked from the point of view of the interior. I even liked something, something cool. We watched another interesting film in Russian about Dali. I recommend the museum to visit
Well, in principle, the Museum of modern art is similar in essence to similar ones. The room itself is interestingly decorated, but removed the star for the inconvenience of understanding the names of the paintings themselves and the artist. Everything is posted on the edge of the wall and you have to run to read and come back. And there are also no personal hygiene rooms and a small cafe. Usually all this is present in most museums.
Be sure to visit if you are in Baku. Have a lot of fun. Paintings are presented, carpets, utensils, sculpture. The museum itself is located near the sea.
Worth a visit! Modern art can be different, very interesting works of artists and sculptors are provided here. Yes, there are vague abstract works, but they create a general atmosphere (or I just don't understand something else)
We went to the museum on the last day. They didn't regret it at all. We got an idea of modern trends in the work of Azerbaijani artists. We were convinced that they are basically the same as in Russia and in world painting.
The museum is light, cool, and free.
The ticket costs 5 manats.
We got to the museum on foot, from the old town for about half an hour through the beautiful streets. Only near the museum itself is construction underway, and a somewhat uncomfortable approach to it.
A wonderful collection of paintings by contemporary artists, little-known, but very talented! I was surprised and got aesthetic pleasure.

One of the best places in Baku. A nice price for a ticket. The exposition itself is something. As a person far from art, I really liked some of the works - symbols, colors, shapes. Cool!
A wonderful museum.There are compositions that leave a residue.Everyone will see everything in their own way, but for tourists I consider it necessary to visit this institution, at least for informational purposes.
Chic museum👍 2-storey large museum with interesting compositions🔥 Very impressed!! Photos can be taken without a flash, videos are not allowed. The entrance ticket is 10 manat.
