On the corner of Marble Arch and Oxford Street, a short walk from Hyde Park, Moco London is the British home of the museum that started in Amsterdam and also runs in Barcelona. Short for Modern Contemporary, it shows street and pop art next to contemporary, digital and immersive work, in rooms big enough for large pieces.

Banksy's work is part of the permanent Contemporary Masters collection. His satirical, political images are full of monkeys, rats, police officers and surveillance cameras, and the selection includes well-known pieces such as Flower Thrower. Moco says the works are independently verified for provenance, and the selection rotates over time.

The Modern Masters rooms hold Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring and Andy Warhol, who carried street and pop language into the art world. Damien Hirst and Daniel Arsham show large works here, and the digital and immersive rooms complete the visit.

Allow an hour and a half to two hours. An audio guide covers the Banksy exhibition. Getting there: Central line to Marble Arch, a few minutes' walk.
