Pori Art Museum
Eteläranta,
28100 Pori
The Pori museum, known for its bold and adventurous exhibits, showcases modern contemporary art from Finland and abroad.
The Pori Art Museum’s exhibition programme for 2025 weaves together the present moment of art and different histories, agencies and rituals.
Pori Art Museum will reopen to the public on 31 January 2025 upon completion of the building’s renovation.
The 2025 exhibition program will open with the genre-bending and boundary-braking experimental rock band Circle and their sculptural and sound-based installation Point (Piste). Working in the space between avant-garde sound art and rock music genres, Circle is known for its repetitively monumental and sculptural music, as well as trance-like performative live shows.
The Pori Art Museum is founded on the life’s work of Professor Maire Gullichsen (1907–1990) and the art collection of a foundation bearing her name. Consisting mainly of modern Finnish art, the collection now has a dedicated exhibition space in the Wing annex. The second half of the Wing annex will feature a selection of works from the AD HOC Collection donated to the museum by Kristian and Kirsi Gullichsen.
The autumn season will kick off in the Hall gallery with a show called Sugar Doors, a joint presentation by four Finnish contemporary artists: Essi Kausalainen, Olli Keränen, Mikko Kuorinki and Maija Luutonen. The temporary exhibitions space in Wing will feature a show by the Berlin-based contemporary artist melanie bonajo. The exhibition brings together all three works of the Night Soil trilogy (2014–2016) in an expanded installation form.

The focus of the opening year’s exhibition programme is on the uniqueness of artworks and encounters with art that arise from visitors’ own desire and interest in seeking out art.
