It really depends on the show. I have seen shows that have amazed me and I have loved and I have seen some which were a little one note. But of course there is a huge element of taste involved and connection various art styles. Shop has lots of fun bits, gifts and books.

Contemporary art in an amazing modern building. Good cafe too. It's easy to spend two or three hours here. This place is a "must visit" if you like modern art and are visiting Helsinki.
