 Museum of Contemporary Art, Sydney
The Museum of Contemporary Art, or MCA, in Sydney is a museum dedicated to exhibiting, interpreting and collecting contemporary art, from Australia and across the world. It is housed in the Art Deco-styled Maritime Services Board Building, on the eastern edge of Circular Quay.
The Museum of Contemporary Art was established to fulfil the vision of Australian expatriate artist John Power (1881–1943), who bequeathed his personal fortune to the University of Sydney to inform and educate Australians in the contemporary visual arts. When the Maritime Services Board (MSB) relocated to larger premises in 1989, the former MSB Building was gifted by the NSW State Government to the Museum of Contemporary Art. Funds from the University of Sydney and the Power Bequest allowed the building to be restored and refurbished, and in November 1991, the Museum of Contemporary Art officially opened.
