Daniel Arsham in Barcelona

Contemporary Digital Artist

Daniel Arsham makes installations and objects that conjure a kind of mythical contemporary archeology.

In a practice that spans film, painting, sculpture, and installation, the artist employs elements of architecture and performance that distort recognizable forms into corroded, calcified, or otherwise glitched-out artifacts. In the case of his exhibition Connecting Time at Moco Museum, Daniel Arsham manipulated gallery spaces to achieve these very effects.

Daniel Arsham, Eroding and Reforming Bust of Rome

Daniel Arsham got propelled into the world of jet-set when legendary American dance choreographer Merce Cunningham invited him to design the stage for the piece titled eyeSpace at the Miami Performing Arts Center in 2004. Cunningham had previously collaborated with Rauschenberg, Frank Stella and Andy Warhol. The art of Daniel Arsham has a monochrome palette that alludes to a disembodied future, which has resonated with art lovers internationally.

In addition to his fine art practice, Arsham has collaborated with a number of brands, including Adidas, Dior, and Porsche. Now, he continues to evolve with the changing tides in art by diving into the New FuTure with NFTs. Arsham has collaborated frequently with Barcelona-based creative studio Six N. Five to create immaculate NFTs.

    Visiting the MOCO Museum in Barcelona was one of the highlights of my trip. It’s a place where modern, contemporary, and digital art come together in the most dynamic way full of color, creativity, and unexpected emotions. The museum is located in the heart of El Born, inside a beautifully restored historic building that contrasts perfectly with the modern art inside. From the moment you enter, you feel the vibrant energy each room has its own mood, from powerful visual installations to immersive digital experiences.

    I really recommend visiting the Moco Museum. I was astonished by the artworks there. I’m keen on contemporary art, so I was delighted to see works by Andy Warhol, Banksy, and others. The museum is very interactive, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the atmosphere. There’s also a special room with light installations it was incredible! Besides, they have an amazing gift shop with souvenirs at affordable prices.

    This is a small collection, but the carefully chosen selection of great artists and pieces keeps a tourist, otherwise busy with all the city’s attractions , focused on the very best. Guillermo Lorca’s works are striking: fresh, imaginative, and captivating.

    I had the amazing opportunity to visit it this week and it honestly left me speechless. As someone who deeply loves art, I was thrilled to see works by some of my favorite artists: Banksy, Yayoi Kusama, Andy Warhol, Keith Haring, and so many more! They’re also currently featuring a temporary exhibition of artworks by Robbie Williams. I was so surprised, he’s not only a talented singer, but also an incredible artist! Thank you, Moco Museum, for this unforgettable experience! ✨

    I especially loved how the exhibition combines world-famous artists like Banksy, Basquiat, and Andy Warhol with emerging digital creators and NFT art. It’s not a typical “quiet” museum it’s interactive, emotional, and modern. The NFT and digital rooms were fascinating they make you reflect on how art, technology, and human creativity are merging today. Lighting, music, and the flow between rooms are very well designed, so you never feel bored or overwhelmed. The curators clearly thought about how to make art feel accessible, emotional, and current. Staff were friendly and helpful, and the museum shop also has great souvenirs and art books.
