    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.
