What's on

The exhibition reflects the multi-layered and multi-threaded heritage of contemporary art. The works in the exhibition have elements that come from the history of abstract art, which once also inspired Alvar Aalto.

The Human Perspective Poster Exhibition showcases posters from the poster competition were participants were invited to interpret Alvar and Aino Aalto’s vision of man’s relationship with his environment, architecture and design.

Over decades of traveling and research, Kaarina region-based collector Pertti Männistö has brought together the largest private collection of Aalto design in the world. With this exhibition, the pieces return to the site of their inception at Paimio Sanatorium to each tell their own captivating story.

In the Sanatorium’s former patient rooms 209 to 213 Elina Brotherus shows photographic works created during two residency stays in 2015 and 2018 at Maison Louis Carré, the only Aalto building in France.
