Leandro Erlich

What if a cloud stopped moving? What if an elevator led nowhere?

Amos Rex features the works of artist Leandro Erlich (born 1973 in Buenos Aires, Argentina), whose immersive art, often carried out at huge scale, blurs our perceptions of reality. In Erlich’s playful world, you can climb the façade of a typical Helsinki building, take a seat as a pupil in a ghostly classroom, or investigate a strange elevator lobby to nowhere. Here, the laws of physics do not apply, and those who enter can no longer trust what they see.

Magnus Enckell, Boys on the beach, 1910.

Sigurd Frosterus Collection

Magnus Enckell, Alfred William Finch, Sigrid Schauman, Paul Signac, Louis Valtat…

The Sigurd Frosterus (1876–1956) Foundation collection can be viewed as a declaration of love for the Colourism that emerged in Europe in the first half of the 20th century. Among wellknown names are artists like Magnus Enckell, Alfred Wilhelm Finch, Pierre Bonnard, Paul Signac, Thèo van Rysselberghe, Henri Edmond Cross, Maximilien Luce and Maurice Vlaminck.
