Ten artists from the Ars-Häme association are being exhibited at the Neues Kunsthaus in Ahrenshoop, Germany.
DEFENDING THE SECRET
Contemporary Art From Finland
5.9.-2.11.2026 Neues Kunsthaus Ahrenshoop, Germany
In a world of constant visibility, this exhibition defends the secret. Ten artistic practices from Finland navigate the realms of dream, memory and imagination, opening up spaces of the hidden – places where not everything has to be visible or explained. They invite us to experience the ambiguous and the inaccessible as a reservoir of inner freedom.
The exhibition was curated by Olivia Franke, Director of Künstlerhaus Lukas, in collaboration with Ars-Häme ry.
Artists: Johannes Kangas, Satu Kiuru, Salla Laurinolli, Samuli Laurinolli, Pilvi Ojala, Kukka Pitkänen, Minttu Saarinen, Katri Stenberg ja Anssi Taulu.
