thumb|250px|Construction site in December 2015 thumb|250px|Construction site in February 2017 M+ is an art museum located in the West Kowloon Cultural District of Hong Kong. It exhibits twentieth- and twenty-first-century art encompassing visual art, design and architecture, and moving image. It opened on 12 November 2021.
==Focus== The M+ Collections focus on twentieth- and twenty-first-century visual culture, encompassing the disciplines of design and architecture, moving image, and visual art, and the thematic area of Hong Kong visual culture. The museum is intended to rival the Tate Modern, New York's MoMA and the Centre Pompidou in terms of the breadth and importance of its collections. The HK$5.9 billion institution has been led by Museum Director Suhanya Raffel since January 2019 and administered by the West Kowloon Cultural District Authority (WKCDA). A separate subsidiary company will be set up in the future with the aim of ensuring its "independence and efficiency".
