For Banksy and Bambi lovers - Must-see for street art lovers, that I am! 😃 You came across this nugget that deserves a serious detour! Only original works on several levels. A very nice collection of Banksy, Bambi, Kaws and others. I loved this place run by some super friendly kids! I highly recommend 🤩

Banksy Like You’ve Never Seen – Rare Stencils & Street Art Origins at MACA - If you’re a fan of street art or intrigued by the enigmatic world of Banksy, the MACA Museum in Copenhagen is a must-visit. Located in a historic 19th-century warehouse near Nyhavn, this contemporary art museum offers an intimate and immersive experience into the early years of street art.   🎨 Exhibition Highlights The centerpiece of the museum is the exhibition “Banksy & Street Art: The Early Years,” which spans three floors. It features a rare collection of Banksy’s early works, including original stencils, drawings, photographs, and paintings. These pieces provide a fascinating insight into Banksy’s creative process and the evolution of his distinctive style.   Beyond Banksy, the exhibition also showcases works from influential street artists of the 1980s and 1990s, such as Futura 2000 and Lady Pink. This broader context enriches the understanding of the street art movement’s roots and its impact on contemporary art.   🏛️ Museum Experience Visitors can enhance their experience with a free multilingual audio guide app, allowing for a self-paced exploration of the exhibits. The museum’s layout is thoughtfully designed, with each floor offering a unique perspective on the evolution of street art. Amenities include restrooms, a coat and bag rack, and a cozy courtyard café—perfect for reflecting on the thought-provoking art over a cup of coffee.

A Hidden Gem – Absolutely Fantastic! - The Banksy and Street Art exhibition is absolutely fantastic. Some of the displays feature original artwork, which is truly amazing to see up close. The audio guide works extremely well—just make sure to bring your own headphones. The staff are super friendly and more than happy to chat and answer any questions. I highly recommend setting aside a couple of hours in your itinerary to visit this place—well worth it!

Fascinating and informative - a real surprise - We’re all familiar with Banksy, right? Here you’ll find plenty of his works - but there’s so much more! What I thought would be a quick visit, turned out to be one of the most informative and well-curated exhibitions I’ve been to, and we ended up spending several hours here. This exhibition is essentially a history of international street art/graffiti, with examples from both sides of the Atlantic. I can honestly say that I read every word about every piece on display - something I’ve never done before, and a clear indication of how good this place is. If contemporary art is your bag, this is a must when visiting Copenhagen.

Street Art In Copenhagen - MACA was a surprise find for me in Copenhagen. I am a big fan of street art . The collection is great. I saw some of my favorites grouped together with a few new artists that I didn’t know as well. I also think it is a great selection to introduce people to street art and kids would like it. It is down the block from Nyhavn, a street everyone goes to, so very easy to get to. I highly recommend this museum in Copenhagen.

Exceptional street art museum - Exceptional street art museum, detailed presentations, nice staff, clever guidance concept via QR code on your own mobile phone in many languages. Since Banksy is the museum's headliner, I would have expected more exhibits/pictures from him.

An interesting surprise - An amazing museum. At least for those like me who were skeptical and ignorant about the work of Bansky & Co and the media attention he receives. You can value more or less positively the works exhibited here, but in my view anyone interested in contemporary art and culture should know them. I will recommend to spend some time there if in Copenhaguen.
