Works by artists: Juhana Blomstedt, Alexander Calder, Carolus Enckell, Aleksander Florensky, Jorma Hautala, Matti Kujasalo, Anne Koskinen, Leonhard Lapin, Le Corbusier, Fernand Léger, Daniel Liebeskind, Kirmo Mikkola, Edgar Pillet, Sam Vanni, Victor Vasarely.

In the 2025 opening program, the second half of the Wing [Siipi] annex will feature a selection of works from the AD HOC Collection donated to the museum by Kristian and Kirsi Gullichsen. The show will also highlight the prominence in the museum’s history of the work of architect Kristian Gullichsen (1932 – 2021), who designed the original conversion of the building in which the museum was first opened in 1981. The works selected for the exhibition showcase the role of abstract thinking that lies at the heart of modern art and architecture.
