The opening exhibition of HAM’s new collection space brings together two painters from different eras, united by their emotional exploration of landscape.

Petri Ala-Maunus’s (b. 1970) large-scale, detailed and highly romantic works meet Mauno Markkula’s (1905–1959) expressive, imaginative, and fantastical views. The exhibition guides visitors into unreal landscapes, immersed in vividly coloured storms.
