    Ryteikkö - Thicket

    Art Space Mari · Espoo

    Curated by artist Rauha Hartt the exhibition titled "Ryteikkö" brings together three generations of artists who in their works in the exhibition explore the notion of the theme. "Ryteikkö" means a thicket, copse or a tangly bit of the woods where accessibility is little or none. Thoroughly familiar for anyone who's ever walked in an even semi wild Finnish woods. Ryteikkö can be seen as a physical place but also something like a mental block. How'd you navigate this? The exhibition features the following artists: Tuuli Autio, Heikki Pasanen, Amado Peña and Victoria Torboli. Art Space Mari, Espoo 25.9.-8.11.2026 Opening 25.9. at 18.00–20.00 Thu–Fri 12.00–16.00 Sat–Sun 14.00–18.00 Free entry

    Goldsmith of the Year 2026

    Finnish Museum of Horology and Jewellery Kruunu · Espoo

    Mauri Haapamäki, founder of Aspenhill Design Oy, represents the rare and rapidly disappearing silversmithing tradition in Finland. Silversmithing, one of the related professions within the goldsmithing industry, involves the traditional handcrafted production of large silver objects using techniques such as spinning, hammering and raising. With this year’s selection, the Finnish Goldsmiths’ Association wishes to highlight the demanding and significant craftsmanship of silversmithing, a profession that is increasingly under threat within the goldsmithing industry. It is a craft that requires an exceptional level of skill and expertise – knowledge that can only be acquired through years of experience and practice. The Finnish Museum of Horology and Jewellery Kruunu 16.9.–29.11.2026 Wed-Sat 11.00-17.00, (Sat 19.9. closed) Sun 10.00-17.00 Admission fee 0-15€

    Howard Smith

    EMMA - Espoo Museum of Modern Art · Espoo

    The retrospective exhibition of Howard Smith (1928–2021) presents the versatile career of a well-loved and distinctive artist. The exhibition pays tribute to his open-minded visual expression and his influence on the Finnish art and design scene. Originally from New Jersey, Smith became known for his curious approach to art. His extensive career resembled a continuous journey of exploration into the possibilities of different materials, forms and techniques. Smith worked across a wide range of media, including ceramics, textile art, sculpture, papercut, collage and drawing. In addition, his designs extended into urban spaces through numerous public artworks. Alongside his art, Smith designed fabrics for Vallila and ceramics for Arabia. His much-loved design classics have found their way into many Finnish homes and everyday life. The long-awaited solo exhibition of Howard Smith is part of EMMA’s series highlighting both the classics of modernism and its reformers. It celebrates an artist whose contribution to Finnish art and design has been significant, while also emphasising the importance of multiculturalism as part of Finland’s art history. Smith stands out as a rare example of an African American artist who played a central role in shaping Finland’s visual culture. EMMA, Espoo 5.9.2026-7.2.2027 Admission fee 0-20€

    Traces of Craft - Museo Kruunu's Collections

    Finnish Museum of Horology and Jewellery Kruunu · Espoo

    Come and explore the museum’s collections in the long-awaited exhibition Traces of Craft. The collections of Museo Kruunu originated with the establishment of the Finnish School of Watchmaking in 1944 and the teaching collection it assembled through donations of various clocks, watches, and watchmaking tools. In 2015, a project was launched to expand the museum concept to include not only horology and the watchmaking tradition, but also jewellery and goldsmithing. The collections also include an extensive archive, library, and photograph collection. The exhibition Traces of Craft presents the museum’s collections in a broad scope, featuring both long-time favourites and more recent donations. In the exhibition, you can explore not only the museum’s own history through its collections, but also Finnish watch and jewellery history through the objects used here and the stories they tell. These objects reflect Finnish cultural history, and the collections preserve the craftsmanship of numerous skilled artisans from the past.
