The museums architecture was amazing. However the focus on one particular artist who I guess was being featured was featured at the time of my visit was a little too heavy. Meaning it was too heavily one just the one artist. A little more variety would have been a better approach.

The galleries and art inside were amazing. Very interesting paintings and abstract art. Overall, the art inside was very worth seeing the architecture and design of the whole museum was very intricate and interesting to explore. I definitely recommend buying pay what you wish tickets before hand because the line would be very long if you didn’t buy before hand.
