Generation 2026
This is Generation 2026 — Artists out now!
Amos Rex’s Generation triennial offers a bold and fascinating glimpse into the art and thoughts of the young, emerging generation of artists. Held every three years, the exhibition features a broad selection of works by approximately 40 young artists aged 15–23, chosen by a jury from open call submissions. The group exhibition Generation 2026 opens at Amos Rex in Spring 2026.
Natasha Tontey: The Phantom Combatants and the Metabolism of Disobedient Organs
A commission by Amos Rex and LAS Art Foundation, presented at Ateneo Veneto, Venice.
Tontey’s most ambitious work to date is a multi-media installation that follows the story of a 1950s female resistance fighter in Indonesia.
The Phantom Combatants and the Metabolism of Disobedient Organs will be on view at Ateneo Veneto, Venice’s academy of science, literature, and the arts, located in San Marco.
Dansbana!
Amos Rex's summer program transforms public space into a dance floor open to all.
Dansbana! is both an installation and an invitation, to dance at Lasipalatsi Courtyard. Designed by three Swedish architects, Anna Fridolin, Anna Pang and Teres Selberg, the space updates the idea of the traditional Finnish dance pavilion to meet the demands of contemporary dance scene and is free for the public to use. The Amos Rex mounds already create a landscape that make people move in unexpected ways – Dansbana! adds to this with its dance floor and sculptural plant figures creating a space where you can freely move or just look, listen and touch.
The Other Side of the Mountain
“Until the lion has their historian, the hunter will always be a hero.” – African proverb
Amos Rex’s main autumn exhibition, in collaboration with Southnord, brings together contemporary artists from the Afro-Nordic diaspora and artists working from the African continent. Through Black perspectives and other ways of knowing, the exhibition explores cities as organisms and landscapes as state design, drawing attention to how these sites create distances and proximities between people.
The exhibition features 11 artists, nearly 60 works and three new commissions.
