Aalto Alumni Event
The 20th anniversary exhibition of the Association of Finnish Fine Arts Foundations, opened at Kunsthalle Helsinki, asks: whose stories is Finland built from? The exhibition has been curated by PhD, docent Annamari Vänskä.
The exhibition is open through 20.2. – 5.3.2026
Hämeenlinna Art Museum will open a new exhibition Kehyskertomuksia: 24 fps / Reframing Cinema, produced in collaboration with the Aalto University Department of Film ELO.
The aim of public art across Aalto is to create a vibrant environment for experiencing the world through various perspectives and for embracing imagination, intuition, and exploration.
How can we make space for unexpected ways of looking at the world? Galleries and exhibition venues are co-produced spaces for action, bringing together the knowledge, content, vision, and passion of different agents.
Väre Exhibitions, School of Art, Architecture and Design
Aalto University’s biggest annual exhibition presents visionary cross-disciplinary work. Come explore prototypes, experiments and solutions.
What don't we see even though we should – or could? Explore the exhibitions of Designs for a Cooler Planet 2023 to discover what Aalto students and researchers should be made visible.
DIALOGUES – Creating New Textile Futures by AaltoTEXTILES
Designs for a Cooler Planet is a five-week-long festival celebrating experiments in planet-friendly materials, fashion, and food.
Near futures, exhibition tribute to the academic year 2019–2020 graduates
