Our Land, for All

Our Land, for All celebrates 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.

Our Land, for All makes room for a wide range of voices and viewpoints, inviting visitors to consider whose stories “Finland” is built from, and who it belongs to.

The exhibition features Finnish classics beloved by many, rarely seen contemporary artworks, new acquisitions by the foundations, and contemporary fashion.

The exhibition celebrates the capacity of art and fashion to tell, imagine, and build an open and shared Finland. The curator is Annamari Vänskä, PhD, Docent.

The Association of Finnish Fine Arts Foundations consists of ten Finnish art foundations. Its aim is to promote the appreciation and study of art and to organise nationwide exhibitions where audiences can encounter collections ranging from the 1500s to the present day.

Member foundations: Alfred Kordelin Foundation, Amos Anderson Fund, Fortum Art Foundation, Lönnström Art Museum, Nordea Art Foundation Finland, OP Art Foundation, Pro Artibus Foundation, Signe & Ane Gyllenberg Foundation, UPM-Kymmene Cultural Foundation, Åbo Akademi University Foundation
