The Gallen-Kallela Museum Foundation functions as an information center on the work of Akseli Gallen-Kallela, actively providing information on the artist and his oeuvre. The museum stages temporary exhibitions a few times a year
featuring both historical and contemporary art, with parallels and juxtapositions of the old and the new opening new perspectives on artist’s period and his art.
