What travellers are saying
- Niraj N3 contributionsA wonderful experience. The work done by a handful of talented artists and modellers is truly remarkable. A must see and well worthy of supportWritten 2 December 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- DrDouglas1971Edinburgh, UK153 contributionsAs a lover of art and galleries I greatly enjoyed my visit. I walked from (and to) Merdaka Square on a particularly hot day so you might want to take a Grab or public transport.
The building itself is modern with welcoming staff. You can leave backpacks and such in the free lockers and then explore; admission is also free. The design allows lots of natural light to flood in and viewpoints to the world outside.
There are 6 floors most of which are dedicated to currency and finance as well as Malaysian culture & development.
The artwork is varied and covers many genres; the shadow puppet exhibition was great; they even had Marvel and Star Wars characters.
The cafe was inexpensive and served a decent cup of tea and the gift shop had a good range of mementos.
I would say they were missing Scottish Bank Notes, which I would happily donate!Written 14 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- BrooksGoneWildKalgoorlie-Boulder, Australia12 contributionsGreat way to spend time indoors whilst it pours outdoors. Nothing like some silly family fun taking photos of this 3D art. Very clean and lovely helpful staff who will gladly take pics for you if needed.
It was very quite with 1 only other family at the time of our visit.
The managers were delightful to chat with.Written 22 June 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The main gallery is closed until mid October as they are preparing for a new exhibition. The gallery on the third floor is open. They are exhibiting Jungle, Jungle by Zhang Xu Zhang. On display are the character from his short film by the same name as is the short film as such. It was incredibly good. I left happy but before I left I swung by the gift shop to bring home some prints.Written 19 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Auschick22 contributionsNino the manager was outstanding to deal with and willing to refund no questions asked.
They have such a wide range of styles you can spend hours deciding and can bargain prices.
They did a painting for me from a photo of a picture that I had and made adjustments for me along the way 😌

- FyingKiwiChristchurch, New Zealand1,131 contributionsA small well hidden (in terms of its location) gallery that features wonderful contemporary art work, along with the works of a featured artist. Also, has some wonderful Malay period furniture on display downstairs.Written 24 January 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- sweetpearl88Singapore264 contributionsWhen I first chanced upon this bookstore last year whilst vising the Van Gogh Exhibition, i was so excited. This excitement was because of the beautiful layout of the bookstorw, the immense floor space, the wide array of books available, the service and the knowledge of the staff which compels me to join the membership even when I am not a Malaysian or live there.
There was a staff who served me who offered to go to the warehouse to get more Manga books so I can choose , when I do not even know what I am buying. In Singapore, I am sure the reply will be everything is on the shelf.
On my second visit, I showed the title of the book I wanted to the counter staff. She went away and came back with different versions and different covers of the same book. Some hard covies and some soft covers . I am a pretty fussy person , to win a smile from me this indeed means the service is excellent. The staff here cares , and they do their work with their hearts and as such they win the customer's heart also. A BIG THAHK YOU to the management for recruiting and training staff of good standards.Written 19 February 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The current MYTH Evolution Art Fashion Exhibition by Dato' Seri Bernard Chandran, IOTAKL at the rooftop, and two levels showcasing the museum's collection along with private collectors' artworks offer so much to explore. I've heard of the renowned DSBC for years, and finally seeing his work in person is incredible. The exploration of materials is fascinating, with each texture evoking different emotions. Pakha Sulaiman's Tubuh collection was especially eye-opening for me. I never realized how deeply art could engage with the socio-political landscape and convey such powerful messages. The entire experience was truly inspiring. It's definitely worth a visit if you're in downtown KL!Written 8 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
