Description

Art, architecture and nature – three elements that interact in harmony throughout the museum. Art collectors Marie-Louise and Gunnar Didrichsen founded the museum in 1965 as an extension to their private home. Situated by the sea on Kuusisaari island in western Helsinki and surrounded by a sculpture park, it has become one of the most beloved art museums in Finland. This podcast dives into the story of the museum, it’s impressive collection, architecture and changing exhibitions.
