Hajime Sorayama in Amsterdam

Contemporary Artist

Since 1978, Contemporary Japanese artist Hajime Sorayama has been inspired by science fiction. Fusing futurism, cyberpunk, and sex into a breathtaking display of desire, he challenges us to question the boundaries of humanity and technology. With a signature style that has captivated a cult following across fashion and celebrity collectors, Hajime Sorayama’s robot women, dogs, pop culture icons, and cyborg subjects remind us that the edge of reality and fantasy is not always clear. We must be conscious of the space we occupy in an ever-evolving landscape of technology and humanity.

    The Moco Museum is one of our favorite places to visit in Amsterdam! It’s smaller than some of the big museums in the city, which actually makes it perfect for a quick and enjoyable visit without feeling rushed. The space is beautifully designed with so many cute and creative photo spots. We also loved how interactive the exhibits are. What stood out most to me were the meaningful quotes and inspiring messages throughout the museum. I left feeling so motivated and uplifted. Definitely a must-visit for art lovers and anyone looking for a fun, modern museum experience in Amsterdam!

    Situated near all the major museums in Amsterdam, Moco Museum is a cozy yet inspiring spot filled with contemporary & street art. You can explore at your own pace across a few floors, with works by icons like Yayoi Kusama, Banksy, and more. Some immersive pieces are hidden throughout too! Don’t miss the outdoor garden, it’s full of art as well. 🎨🖼️✨

    "Nice modern museum and Moco Amsterdam is the second Moco we visited after the one in Barcelona. I recommend it, and our kids loved the modern / contemporary art more than the classic style museums. In Amsterdam especially good on a rainy day when you can escape to a museum."

    Today’s visit to the Moco Museum in Amsterdam was a highlight of our trip. Housed in a beautiful townhouse just off Museumplein, Moco manages to blend history and rebellion, elegance and disruption, all under one quirky roof. The Banksy collection is every bit as impactful in person as you would expect - sharp, irreverent, and full of hidden (and not-so-hidden) messages. Alongside Banksy, we explored works by Keith Haring, Basquiat, Warhol and other visionary artists who challenge the status quo with colour, energy, and wit.

The pieces were thought-provoking and well-curated, making the visit truly memorable. If you're into street art, pop art, or just want to see some bold, creative works (like Banksy’s), Moco Museum is a must-visit in Amsterdam. Highly recommend!

    Opened in 2016 by prominent local gallerists, Moco Museum continues to hog headlines, helped along by a magnificent setting in Villa Alsberg, a 1904 architectural beauty on Museumplein. With its heady mix of Pop Art and works by graffiti rock stars, Moco has enough contemporary swagger to make the neighboring Rijksmuseum and Van Gogh Museum quake in their old-school boots.
