The exhibition can be experienced as one might observe a dream – through fragmentary, wondrous encounters.

 

A Dream in Four Colours presents curated selections from the Finnish National Gallery’s collection of approximately 43,000 works. This exhibition departs from a single unifying theme, instead inviting visitors to approach art intuitively, without seeking to explain or define it. Meanings shift and shimmer, evoking ineffable experiences that resist explanation and linger beyond words.

The exhibition brings together many works that have not been on display at Kiasma for many years. In total, works by 49 artists are included.
