WILLIAM MORRIS
29 May – 30 August 2026
William Morris (1834–1896) was an English artist, writer, socialist, businessman, and founder of a printing press. In his thinking, medieval romance, the beauty of everyday life, and the right to meaningful work were intertwined. The exhibition examines Morris’s work through four key themes: the idealisation of the Middle Ages, the home as a total work of art, the community of artists and craftsmen, and social activism.

MUSEUM, ARCHITECTURE, SCULPTURE PARK
The Didrichsen Art Museum was born out of the love for art. The modern building was designed by architect Viljo Revell and it is located by the sea on Kuusisaari island in western Helsinki. The museum is surrounded by a sculpture park that is open for public during the museum's operating hours.
« We hope that our museum will remain the home of everything beautiful: art, architecture, nature and music and that it will give others as much joy as it has given us »
– Marie-Louise and Gunnar Didrichsen, 1968
