    LOAN TERMS OF FINNISH NATIONAL GALLERY (OUTGOING LOANS) Borrowing works from the collections of the Finnish National Gallery (“FNG”) – Ateneum Art Museum, Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma and Sinebrychoff Art Museum. General terms These terms concern short-term or temporary loans. FNG lends only to museums and exhibition organizers with professional museum staff or a similar level of expertise, as well as appropriately secure and climate-controlled facilities. Loan requests must specify the works to be lent and the loan period, as well as provide an account of the environmental conditions, security and surveillance arrangements in the exhibition galleries. Loan requests must be made in writing to the director of the museum in question – Ateneum Art Museum, Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma or Sinebrychoff Art Museum – at least eight months prior to the loan period for international loans. Each loan request is assessed separately. When deciding on a loan, the things considered include the condition of the work, display conditions particularly in the case of sensitive works, the status of the work in the FNG collections, and other relevant matters such as possible reservations for other exhibitions. Any deviation from these loan terms must be agreed in writing. There is always a loan agreement signed also for media art, whether original works or copies. Insurance Borrowed works of art must be insured against all risks for values determined by FNG. The insurance must run nail to nail, from the moment FNG gives the works over to the Borrower or their representative, up until the moment the works are returned to FNG.

The Ateneum houses Finland's largest collection of paintings, sculptures and prints, with a total of more than 20,000 works.

Works are added to the collection through acquisitions and donations. The Ateneum's hugely popular exhibitions of Finnish and international art open up new perspectives into the past and the future. The museum has held temporary exhibitions of works by artists such as Tove Jansson, Carl Larsson, Pablo Picasso and Helene SchJerfbeck. To be on display until 2020, the colourful Stories of Finnish Art exhibition celebrates the Ateneum collections. The exhibition guides visitors through the development of Finnish art, from 1809 up until the 1960s. On display, side by side, are Finnish and international masterpieces from the Ateneum collections, such as Le Corbusier's Two Women (1939), Eero Järnefelt's Under the Yoke (Burning the Brushwood) (1893), Edvard Munch's Bathing Men (1907–08) and Ilya Repin's Portrait of Natalia Nordmann (1900). The Ateneum is home to events of all kinds: workshops, lectures, guided tours and club evenings are held at the museum every month. The conferences held in conjunction with the exhibitions feature speeches by top Finnish and international experts.
