Located in the Little Tokyo district of downtown Los Angeles, The Geffen Contemporary at MOCA (formerly The Temporary Contemporary) was renovated from a former police car warehouse by the noted California architect Frank O. Gehry. Built in 1983, it was intended to be MOCA’s temporary exhibition space while the Arata Isozaki-designed MOCA Grand Avenue building was under construction. The facility became so popular however, that MOCA’s Board of Trustees voted to continue its operation. In 1995 MOCA received a $5 million gift from The David Geffen Foundation. In recognition of this gift, the museum was renamed The Geffen Contemporary at MOCA. This location offers 50,000 square feet of exhibition space and the MOCA Store at The Geffen Contemporary at MOCA.
