  • A Show of Emotion
    Issue No. 3/2018 A Show of Emotion Interview by Gill Crabbe, FNG Research As the Sinebrychoff Art Museum prepares to stage an exhibition on painting and the theatre, Gill Crabbe meets the show’s curator Laura Gutman, to discuss the research she carried out in order to bring this topic to life Meeting the independent curator Laura Gutman is like meeting a detective. As curator of several shows in Finland, where she moved from Paris 17 years ago, including the recent acclaimed ‘Air de Paris’ exhibition at Helsinki Art Museum (HAM), she has used her research skills and background studying art history under Guy Cogeval at the Ecole du Louvre in Paris in the 1990s to impressive effect in Finland. Not only has she been making intriguing connections between Finnish artists and their European counterparts, but also deepening understanding of European artworks in Finnish collections. It is a busy year for Gutman as she is now in the final stages of preparing a show on theatre and painting from the 17th to early 20th centuries titled ‘Moved to Tears: Staging Emotions’ at the Sinebrychoff Art Museum in Helsinki. The museum is an appropriate setting for such a subject as it is the house of the collector Paul Sinebrychoff, whose wife Fanny Grahn was herself an actress, and their rooms on the first floor are laid out almost as a series of theatrical sets, each reflecting a period from his collection. The theme of the Sinebrychoff exhibition which is held in the galleries on the ground floor, is also a subject close to Gutman’s heart, since at the Ecole du Louvre she studied the theoretical and philosophical background to painting and theatre ‘from David to Degas’.

  • The Ateneum Art Museum – Classic with a Twist
    The Ateneum Art Museum – classic with a twist The Ateneum is Finland's leading art museum, with a collection that includes art dating from the 19th century to the modern age. The Ateneum houses Finland's largest collection of paintings, sculptures and prints, with a total of more than 20,000 works. In addition to Finnish and Scandinavian artists - such as Akseli Gallen-Kallela, Hugo Simberg, Ellen Thesleff and Anders Zorn – the international names featured in the collection include Paul Cézanne, Marc Chagall, Paul Gauguin, Vincent van Gogh and Fernand Léger. 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.
