The Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa (Zeitz MOCAA) is a contemporary art museum (not-for-profit museum) located at the V&A Waterfront in Cape Town, South Africa. It is the largest museum of contemporary African art in the world. The museum building was constructed from the conversion of the 57m tall historic Grain Silo, originally built in 1921 and decommissioned in 2001. The architects, Heatherwick Studio, aimed to conserve and celebrate the original structure’s industrial heritage, while simultaneously excavating large open spaces from the 42 densely-packed concrete cylinders from which it was comprised.
