  1. Kuntsi

    For a modern take, Kuntsi covers pop art, kinetic art, surrealism and postmodernism. The collection opened in the former customs house during 2007, and was based on the collection of local collector Simo Kuntsi who had over 1000 pieces. It’s especially good on modern Finnish works – don’t miss the burning sauna or the Elovena girl hanging herself.
