Behold the new Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA), Cleveland, Ohio, designed by Iranian-born, London-based, Farshid Moussavi. Yet another borg building? Why, of course. That is how museums of the newest “art” must be designed, as decreed by the hive-mind of the High Culture insiders. They must be entirely and absolutely unoriginal! They must conform to the ideology of the cutting edge, meaning they must be baffling, disorienting, devoid of semiotic content — besides a sinister suggestion that unwholesome things are contained within. Moussavi says of his building: Moussavi says of his building: “Our design for MOCA Cleveland aims to provide an ideal environment for artists and visitors and to foster creativity and variety in exhibitions and programs.” I dare anyone to be offended by that! The slanty windows are a cute touch. And you’ve got to love that little mouse-hole door. The slanty windows are a cute touch. And you’ve got to love that little mouse-hole door. Oh, get a load of the interior, below: the stuff of sci-fi nightmares. MC Escher Meets The Day the Earth Stood Still. No humans to ruin the picture, either.
Thanks to Hoyt King for the nomination
Uccchhh. Get me outa here!
Yet another building which already looks very dated. It’s not going to age well, either. There is a 3 minute video on YouTube showing this place being built in a disjointed time-lapse style. With an annoying musical soundtrack which is as meaningless as the structure itself:

Form follows function, literally.
A high art looking thing to house some high art.
Same concept as those donut and hotdog stands that look like donuts and hotdogs.
Got me all inspired now to design that new proctology clinic.
Watch this space.
That interior photo looks like a still from The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.
Looks like a piss poor imitation of an IHOP eatery.
Ooooo! Shiney object. Hummm. . .must not be very much Contemporary Art going on in Cleveland.
Ah, all you naysayers just don’t have any couth. This is ART, baby! Of course you don’t understand; Your lack of understanding just underscores the fact that you’re simply not one of the cognoscenti. I, however, am able to grasp its innate creativity and bask in its aura of prescient modernity (whatever that means – seems impressive, no?)
One might have hoped that the architect would not be unaware that, inherent in the concept of displaying art, is the desirability of having vertical surfaces upon which to hang things.
I suppose I must be a Philistine to raise the point at all.
Great information, I would recommend it to my friends for them to check out. Thanks for sharing! If you have more time, please visit: atari breakout
