Traveler reviews
Eeva Ijavoinen
★★★★★5 months agoGood contemporary art museum. It's fairly small so definitely don't plan half a day there, but the expos are good and the building itself is interesting as well. As usual with more modern museums it's very easy to move around with a stroller (or a wheelchair)
Lena Storz
★★★★★4 months agoReally liked the exhibition of Ewa Partum, it’s nice and refreshing to see so many feminist and revolutionary works! Generally many artworks made by women in the museum, which is rarely the case. Good and thorough descriptions of the art works in english as well. Admission for students was cheap (~20sl)
