The Rooseum Center for Contemporary Art, located in Malmö, Sweden, was a private-owned centre for contemporary art. Founded in 1988 by the Swedish art collector and financier Fredrik Roos, the Rooseum promoted experimental relationships between art, artists and audience, by offering exhibitions and commissions linked to seminars, discussions and relevant screenings. The Rooseum, which was housed in a former power station built in 1900 at Gasverksgatan 22, was closed in 2006.

The Museum of Modern Art in Stockholm (Moderna Museet) opened an annex, Moderna Museet Malmö, in the premises of the former Rooseum in 2009.
