Välkommen till presskonferensen för utställningen Eero Nelimarkka den 11 mars kl. 10.15.24.2.2026 10:00:00 EET | Pressmeddelande

Presskonferensen för utställningen hålls onsdagen den 11.3.2026 kl. 10.15 både på Ateneum och på nätet – noggrannare information nedan. Utställningen tar upp Eero Nelimarkkas (1891–1977) hela karriär och betraktar den mångsidiga konstnären med nya ögon. Utställningen belyser det perspektiv genom vilket Nelimarkka såg världen. Konstnärens fascinerande livsberättelse skildrar den resa genom vilken en son till en tvätterska i Vasa gjorde en målmedveten konstnärskarriär och blev en av Finlands mest omtyckta konstnärer.

Tervetuloa Eero Nelimarkka -näyttelyn tiedotustilaisuuteen keskiviikkona 11.3.202624.2.2026 10:00:00 EET | Tiedote

Näyttelyn tiedotustilaisuus on keskiviikkona 11.3.2026 klo 10.15 sekä Ateneumissa että verkossa – lisätiedot alempana. Eero Nelimarkan (1891–1977) koko uran kattava näyttely katsoo monipuolista taiteilijaa uusin silmin ja valottaa sitä, millaisen linssin läpi hän katsoi maailmaa. Taiteilijan kiehtova elämäntarina kertoo matkan vaasalaisen pyykinpesijän pojasta yhdeksi Suomen suosituimmista taiteilijoista, joka teki määrätietoisen taiteilijanuran.

An exhibition covering the entire career of Eero Nelimarkka (1891–1977) takes a fresh look at the versatile artist and sheds light on his view of the world. Nelimarkka’s fascinating life story traces his journey from being the son of a washerwoman in Vaasa to becoming one of Finland’s most popular artists, whose career was one of a dedicated artist.
