Kari Cavén and Joel Slotte are featured in Kunsthalle Helsinki’s Our Land, for All exhibition, celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Association of Finnish Fine Arts Foundations. The exhibition brings together art and fashion, exploring how personal and national identities have been shaped across different eras. It highlights how values, body ideals, clothing, and our relationship with nature influence and challenge cultural imagery and national narratives. The exhibition, curated by Annamari Vänskä, features Finnish classics, contemporary artworks, new acquisitions by the foundations, and contemporary fashion. Our Land, for All runs until 17 May 2026.

Jorma Puranen and Santeri Tuori are featured in Kadriorgi Art Museum’s exhibition Symphony of Art and Nature: The Serlachius Collection, in Tallinn. This is the first time, the Gösta Serlachius Art Foundation collection will be presented in Estonia. The exhibition brings together Finnish art classics, works by the Old Masters of Western Europe, and contemporary Finnish art, thus highlighting the common thread running through the art collection: artistic mastery. The art forms represented include painting, graphic art, photography and small sculptures.

Elina Merenmies’s painting Karkkiomakuva (Candy Self Portrait) is on view as part of Sinerbrychoff Art Museum’s exhibition Night. The exhibition explores the world of dreams, taking the viewer from dusk to dawn, and showing the many faces of the night: kind, sad, scary, and serene. Besides old European art, the exhibition features paintings, prints and sculptures from the 19th century up to the present day, all from the Finnish National Gallery’s own collection. The artworks carry on a dialogue with poetry, written by the poet Henriikka Tavi. The exhibition has been curated by Kersti Tainio.
