While art-historical scholarship on the subject has already been broadly established, there has not been a joint project that examines this phenomenon on a wider scale analysing the multifarious connections and correspondences that helped shape the identities of each of these modern nations. The ‘European Revivals’ project therefore aims to study and show the similarities and differences of these countries for the first time on a European scale, exploring different aspects at each conference. The aim of the 2012 international conference was to continue the ‘European Revivals’ project in Helsinki by drawing together national museums and galleries and scholars for its second conference in the series, held at the Ateneum Art Museum, Finnish National Gallery, Helsinki. It was accompanied by an extensive exhibition on Helene Schjerfbeck (1862−1946). This major retrospective showed artworks from throughout her career, extending from the 1870s to 1940s. 2 European Revivals: Modern Identities Conference // 10–12 October 2012 --- FNG Research Issue No. 1/2015.

Ateneum Publications Vol. 141. Helsinki: Finnish National Gallery / Ateneum Art Museum, 2020. Transl. Don McCracken Magnus Enckell may not be a household name but some of his works are very well known. Boy with Skull (1892) and The Awakening (1894) are paintings that have retained their fascination for generations in Finnish art history. But what was Enckell like, as a man and an artist? How did his career begin and how did it progress from the late 19th to the early 20th century? Enckell was already an influential person from a young age, and his interests and bold artistic experiments were the subject of much attention. His artistic career differed from others of his generation, not least because from the start, he received support from Finland’s most prominent artist, Albert Edelfelt, who also later served as his mentor, yet he was also very international in his artistic taste. When many of his fellow artists were involved with the transnational ideas of national revival, Enckell’s interests were focussed on international art and especially on Symbolism. Enckell’s life as an artist is intriguingly contradictory, and on a personal level he was apparently complex and often divided opinion.1 Yet he had many supporters, and he influenced ideas and perceptions about art among his close artist friends. Enckell was also good at networking and he forged his own international connections with artists in Paris.

While there is still fairly little research on the manifestations of esoteric ideas in Scandinavian artistic milieus, Finnish scholars have in recent years come to the forefront in the study of how fin-de-siècle occultism affected national painters, and intersected with dominant currents such as romanticism, folklore traditions, and Finland, from June to October 2020.
