Gallery Week: Panel Discussion — Kohta, Helsinki
Description was written before the event

Finnish visual artists remain internationally unknown, despite the country producing world-renowned architects, designers, and conductors. Where does this difference come from - and what could finally be done about it?

These questions are explored at the Gallery Week panel discussion on 26.9.2026 at 16.00-17.30 at Kohta. On stage are artist Benjamin Orlow (Finland's representative at this year's Venice Biennale Nordic pavilion), gallerist Olli Piippo (Helsinki Contemporary) and Arvid van der Rijt, who works with international networks at Frame Contemporary Art Finland. The discussion is led by Kohta director Anders Kreuger.

The event is in English and free admission.
