Interesting Place to Visit. Also has accommodation. Plenty of places to eat. Food & Service was great Ferry Service to the area from Hobart.

Its not art. Just a bunch of uni students trying to shock their audience with juvenile displays. If you truly appreciate art then don't waste your time and money here. Life is too short

For those who delight in chaos, tragedy and negative hyperbole this is your place. It’s dark and depressing. This is not an art museum but a random collection of junk. Framing spoon polish clothes is not art. We forced ourselves to stay for an hour. Nothing inspiring or enjoyable.

Beautiful building, some interesting art, however the visit was spoilt by completely inadequate facilities for differently abled people or families with prams. No parent room; my daughter had to use the disabled toilet to feed her baby. The ramps are too steep for easy access. The app that customers are forced to use to find artwork information divorces the viewer from the work. A gallery full of people are staring at their phones, not the exhibits on show. The lack of signals and maps make it problematic to navigate the gallery and external grounds. Food options ridiculously expensive.

Amazing place to explore. Some confronting exhibits but certainly not boring. Loved it. Some sections aren’t suitable for children but some areas are great for kids so supervise. Building amazing & full of surprises. Allow hours.

Did the ferry from downtown Hobart and that really added to the experience. Museum itself is lovely. Start on the bottom and work your way up. Take a break half way and get a snack. Basket of chips and a pilsner out on the lawn hit the spot. The collection is eclectic but interesting. Recommended!

Of the many, many, many pieces of art on display I saw 5 that I found mildly interesting. Compared to other art museums I have been to it is a 5/10. The architecture, however, is very interesting.

Most has been said before. It is polarising. For us the whole experience lacked class. The use of vulgar language in the marketing and in the App was probably meant to appear edgy but we felt it dragged the tone down. We initially thought the website had been hacked! We found some pieces we liked but this was about 5% of the collection. We did a lap of the grounds searching for the entrance, then had to ask for directions for leaving. Signage was poor. The building, itself, was the highlight.

This isn't for everyone, the museum is built into a cliff so everything is underground. We had to go out into the light half way through to get coffee and have a break. It's difficult to find an exit, things are badly signed. Don't go if you don't like the dark or confined spaces. It's a selection of the weird and the wonderful, there is an app to follow to explain each piece. Did I like it I'm undecided. I think if you took children they would be bored. It's also quite expensive. Apparently it's Tasmania's top tourist attraction, but not for me!

Worth the visit for the wide array of weird and wonderful modern art. It's not to everyone's tastes but they do have trigger warnings on some exhibits. Just be warned, it can get claustrophobic as it's dark and underground so it might be worth breaking it up with lunch or coffee outside. They also have a very helpful app for navigating around that is a must.

We didn’t really know what to expect and the visit was surreal as a result. Very gloomy and at times dark or obscene it was an eccentric collection. Very quirky and strange, not to everyone’s taste no doubt. The building was more interesting than the odd bits and pieces within. Would suggest not spending too much time in the dark corridors as was oppressive at times.

There are two kinds of people…those who find modern art uninspiring and vague…and those that won’t admit it. The Building was amazing but the art was a confused mix of old and modern.There was not enough to keep a younger generation of highly (over?) stimulated youth interested which was illustrated by there being only two ‘moving’ exhibits….both of which were fascinating.The ferry trip is $28 each way so if there are two of you its going to be $118…so take the driving option!. Overall the venue itself overshadowed its content.

Reading some reviews I was a bit wary about what to expect but now have no clue why people find it bad taste or controversial. We were going to take the ferry until a local suggested driving and glad we did. Short drive. Plenty of parking in designated car parks. You can buy tickets at the entrance. Definitely download the O app as that’s what you use for info. There’s free, and very good, public wifi so anyone should be able to use their phone. We started on the lowest floor (the museum is underground, three levels) and you just follow along. I think we spent at least an hour in the first floor before stopping in to a restaurant for some drinks at the bar (highly recommend as a nice break from all the dim lighting). Yes some exhibits are a bit confronting but really only if you read the info that goes with them to understand. Saw a few kids but I don’t think I’d take kids - simply because it’s dim lighting, a long walk, and you’re not allowed to touch the art and there’s a lot of installations which I’m sure any child would naturally touch. Outside there’s a beautiful lawn area with a stage for musicians and a number of food areas. Bean bags mean you can sit around, have food or ice cream and chill out. From what I can tell they have different guest musicians and at times but you can look it up beforehand. Didn’t do any of the paid exhibits, or the house of mirrors as it was just too hot to be outside (and paying $10 each). All in all, highly recommend spending a few hours here.

It was quirky, it was confronting, and it was challenging. Download “The O” as it is an intuitive app that brings up the explanation as you stand in front of the exhibit. Recommend you bring a set of headphones so you can also hear the explanation. There are no explanations on the wall nor directions to follow. You can leave your comments on the exhibits and some of them are very honest and funny. You can tap whether you like the exhibit. Our experience started on the boat where the safety commentary was funny. There is a full bar and a wide range of snacks to purchase. We did not do the Posh Pit but were happy watching the scenery from the “poor” seats. We were lucky to come on a day where there were not many visitors. We are also thankful to Reese for guiding us through the exhibits. The staff are amazing. Anytime we looked a bit lost, someone came to our assistance. If you cannot walk up the 99 steps, there is a tunnel that leads to the last level and you can take the glass lift to the top floor. You may have to let the staff know. We did not dine there but were told the Faro was outstanding. The displays are not your typical museum. There was an Egyptian sarcophagus, a cigarette vending machine, a McDonalds’ Big Mac brooch, a confronting Arse End of the World painting and Snakes by Sidney Nolan. Some may be offended by the Wall of Female Parts, beastially images and the parody of Hitler. I was disappointed the wait times for the paid exhibits were rather long, between, 30-40 mins.

you need to go !! it's not like any museum i've ever been to !! some things are confronting, but it really is something not to be missed !! so much to look at
