HELSINKI CITY MUSEUM’S NEW SITE TO DEBUT IN MAY

A new flagship venue of the Helsinki City Museum is being established in the historic Tori Quarters, reports Artinfo’s Nicholas Forrest. After eighteen months of construction, the museum will open in May with the show “Helsinki Bites,” featuring works from its collection of photos, as well as found objects. “The Museum of Broken Relationships,” a conceptual project by Croatian artists Olinka Vištica and Dražen Grubišić that pays homage to an ended relationship, will also occupy the space. The museum has one million photos, 450,000 historical objects, and six thousand works of art, and was founded with a collection of works by photographer Signe Brander.
