Description:
- Designed by architects Jarl and Hilding Ekelund, Taidehalli ("art hall") launches impressive exhibitions of contemporary Finnish art in soaring interiors remarkable for their space, light, and asperity. Constructed in 1928, the hall has grown into a Helsinki establishment, and today, it is a protected architectural landmark of Finnish Neo-Classicism. There is no permanent collection, so check the website to find out what's currently on display; recent exhibitions have included everything from painting to photography and installation art. If you're lucky, you'll catch an exciting premiere, as many Taidehalli exhibits open here before embarking on a prestigious international circuit. -Liesl Yamaguchi
