Suburban art gallery Museum of Contemporary Art (MOCA) has finally given the green lights to avid photographers to take pictures inside the famous Richard Green Room—a gallery inspired by the interiors of legendary art museums in Europe. The interior details promise the bewilder visitors, featuring olive green-painted walls, curved gateways, and glass-dome roofs as you would see inside world-famous The Louvre in Paris and The National Gallery in London.
In contrast to the museum's other exhibition rooms that showcase contemporary pieces by local artists, Richard Green Room features pre-modern paintings and sculptures bought from Richard Green Gallery in London. Expect to witness masterpieces by John William Godward and Sir Lawrence Alma Tadema. The delicate artworks are sensitive to lights so the museum had prohibited photography inside the room.
MOCA Bangkok opens Tuesday-Sunday, 10:00-18:00. Admission fee is B250 (B100 for students with ID).
