14 April 2023–14 January 2024

The focus in planning of the exhibition, due to open in the spring, has been on child visitors to HAM and in new ways of being at an art exhibition. A selection of paintings and one sculpture from the Bäcksbacka collections will be exhibited. The art works, mainly from the 1970s, share intense colours, a fairy-tale representation and imaginative, narrative content. The exhibition architecture will cater to the littlest visitors through special playful solutions and the visitors will also be offered opportunities for self-expression. The artists present in the exhibition are Veikko Hirvimäki, Alice Kaira, Pirkko Lepistö, Tuomas Mäntynen, Michael Schilkin and Antti Vuori.

The exhibition is curated by HAM curator Sanna Tuulikangas and the exhibition architecture is designed by Aalto+Aalto.
