"Si hay un museo que no se puede perder en Barcelona, ?? es este lugar. Contiene tesoros del arte internacional contemporáneo (ni demasiado clásico ni demasiado moderno). Si te gusta el arte, debes ver este museo. Artistas estadounidenses, italianos, españoles y franceses están representados. Se encuentra a 20 metros del Museo Picasso."

"Esta galería artística del Born me maravilló por la belleza de las obras expuestas. Estamos tan acostumbrados a equiparar el arte contemporánea con obras herméticas y (a veces) incomprensibles, que miramos al pasado con nostalgia. El MEAM sube el nivel del arte contemporáneo. El museo sin duda está entre los museos que hay que visitar en Barcelona".

Vale la pena visitar el MEAM para disfrutar de sus instalaciones y de la impresionante colección de pintura y escultura figurativa contemporánea. Los conciertos ofrecidos en la sala principal son una buena alternativa al bullicio de las calles que rodean este maravilloso palacio.

"Todo está hecho para crear un ambiante de escape, desde la elección de las obras hasta la atmósfera musical a través de los lugareños. Un muy buen momento. Cerca del Museo Picasso y sus dos horas de cola. A tener en cuenta, la gran predisponibilidad del personal en el lugar."

"He vuelto al MEAM por la tercera vez y siempre me maravillo por la abundancia y la calidad de las obras. Arte figurativo esencialmente. Volveré."
