The main exhibition in winter 2018-2019 will be 'Urban Encounters : Finnish Art from the 20th Century'. The diverse exhibition explores migration and urbanisation in Finland in the early decades of the 20th century: people's lives and daily existence. The exhibition will present a diverse selection of rarely shown works from the Finnish National Gallery's collection. The multi-layered exhibition will offer an in-depth exploration of the interesting changes in Finnish society and daily life from the 1910s to the 1980s. The exhibited works feature, for example, fashion, cafes and restaurants, nightlife, films, and performing arts; and plain everyday life in the city. Exhibition: Ateneum Taidemuseo, Helsinki, Finland (19.10.2018 - 20.01.2019).
