In spring 2024, WAM will present the solo exhibition of the internationally acclaimed artist Iiu Susiraja. Susiraja is known for her startling photographs and videos that feature the artist herself in unexpected contexts. The exhibition is currently on display at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.
Mounira Al Solh’s video diptych and installation Hop to Hope consists of two films. The films were shot in August 2021, during an escalating economic and political crisis that resulted in shortages of gas, fuel, electricity, water and wheat in Lebanon.
The retrospective exhibition showcases the production of the artist group SALONG 3 +. The group became significant in the Finnish art field when it was active from the late 1980s to the early 1990s.

A new exhibition opens in June in WAM’s cafe. In the exhibition Home of a Hundred Artists, there are works of eleven artists who have worked in the Parrantie atelier houses in Turku. The atelier houses have served as homes and workspaces for local artists for more than 50 years. However, this summer the houses will be demolished.
