Come and spend the Night of the Arts at Amos Rex! To celebrate the evening, we are offering free admission to the museum from 6 pm to 11 pm. Entry closes at 10:30 pm, and visitors can stay until 11 pm.

At Night of the Arts, you can participate in:

  • Artist’s meeting – Kim Simonsson talks about his art and Moss Giants in the Lasipalatsi square at 6 pm. The event is in Finnish and you do not need to book in advance. We will also speak Swedish and English if necessary. The tour starts from the domes, close to Kim Simonsson’s artwork Wanderer.
  • Singing of the Moss Giants – the usually so quiet Moss Giants sing at the Lasipalatsi Square at 6 pm and 11 pm.
  • Clearance sale! Amos Rex Shop will be selling products at attractive prices in the square from 5 pm to 11:30 pm. The special sale will feature discontinued products and lots of other fun stuff.
  • Amos Rex exhibitions – We now have a total of four different exhibitions on show: the large collection exhibition I feel, for now, Josefina Nelimarkka’s studio exhibition The Cloud of Un/knowing, the permanent exhibition of the Sigurd Frosterus collection, and Kim Simonsson’s Moss Giants in the Lasipalatsi Square and on the Bio Rex terrace.

Entrance to Amos Rex closes at 10:30 pm, half an hour before the museum closes. If the museum is full, we may have to close the doors earlier.

Welcome, see you at the museum!

Am I?” is the first feature film from celebrated conceptual and AI artist Kevin Abosch. An entirely synthetic film (every frame of the film made using AI), it might be best described as a musical embedded in a documentary wrapped in a sci-fi film. A relentless, dizzyingly fast-paced experience that explores machine consciousness, weaponized AI and trans-humanism, Abosch describes his film: “‘Am I?’ is a look at how we risk losing our humanity as individuals and collectively as a society while under the influence of machines, from the perspective of a machine.”
