Exhibition accessibility and sensory impressions
This page is for anyone who needs detailed information about the exhibition or wants to prepare for their museum visit.
Before your exhibition visit
A limited number of visitors can attend the Leandro Erlich exhibition at a time.
We recommend purchasing tickets online in advance – even if you have a Museum Card or are under 18!
When you buy an online ticket, you can enter the exhibition at your preferred time.
We recommend that visitors with sensory sensitivities visit Amos Rex on a day when you don’t have many other plans. Art exhibitions are not always ideal as the last activity after a long and eventful day.
Amos Rex exhibitions are suitable for all ages. For visitors with children, we recommend checking out Children’s Amos Rex, where you can find tips for visiting the exhibitions.
It is often quieter at Amos Rex on weekday afternoons and also evenings after 6 p.m. In the mornings, many school and daycare groups visit the museum, especially during 20 Oct–8 Dec 2025 and 14 Jan–26 Feb 2026.
See also the ‘Calm Mornings’ event. You can experience the exhibition before the museum opens: Wed 10 Dec 2025, Mon 26 Jan 2026, Sat 31 Jan 2026, Fri 6 Mar 2026, or Sat 21 Mar 2026.
Upon arrival
If you have purchased an online ticket, you can enter the museum from Lasipalatsi through the accessible entrance. The door’s opening button is on the left side.
Show your online ticket to the staff at the nearest available counter. Your ticket will be scanned, and you will receive an entrance sticker. Place the sticker somewhere visible, such as on your clothing.
If you purchase a ticket on-site and it is crowded, there may be a line at the main entrance ticket counter. Please note that without a pre-purchased timed ticket, you may not be able to enter exactly when you want.
Welcome to the museum!
Feel free to ask staff for assistance – we are happy to help.

About the exhibition
Leandro Erlich’s exhibition has no sensory barriers, and the overall sensory load is moderate.
The exhibition includes several works that may be particularly interesting for visitors with sensory sensitivities compared to a normal everyday environment. The transition from the bright, white foyer to the dark exhibition room is noticeable and may require a short adjustment period for those sensitive to visual stimuli. The exhibition’s sound environment is calm.
In autumn 2025, Amos Rex hosts an exhibition by Leandro Erlich (born 1973, Buenos Aires), showcasing immersive, large-scale installations that transform architecture, gravity, and perspective into captivating illusions.
In Erlich’s works, the laws of physics do not apply, and everyday environments are transformed into something strange, dreamlike, and sometimes humorous. The exhibition features ten impressive installations from the artist’s long career and invites visitors to experience them firsthand.
There are ten works in total, spaced freely in the room.
Three of the works are interactive and marked with the following symbol:
The exhibition rooms are somewhat dark in certain areas. More information about each work is provided below.
Erlich’s works have been shown at many art museums worldwide, such as Palais de Tokyo in Paris, Barbican Centre in London, MoMA in New York, and Museo de Arte Moderno in Buenos Aires.
At Amos Rex, Leandro Erlich’s works are being shown in Finland for the first time. The exhibition curators are Anastasia Isakova and Kai Kartio.

Studio Rex
In the lower foyer, the first sliding doors on the left lead to the museum’s art studio, Studio Rex. The room is easily visible from the foyer doors. The ceiling has a strong black-and-white pattern. The pattern is visible even when looking in another direction. The space is not accessible to people sensitive to graphic patterns.
A strange volcano has appeared in Studio Rex. Visitors can gather there, sit down to read, or lie down for a moment. The sofa provides a sturdy seating surface and is not particularly soft or sinking. You can climb onto the volcano – remove your shoes when doing so.
The room also features an interview with Leandro Erlich and model versions of his works.
There are tables and chairs where you can create your own “cloud art.”
In the space, a white noise soundscape can be heard.
