Last Supper -exhibition

Turku Cathedral, the Finnish national shrine, offers an unparalleled venue for an art exhibition, where the secular and the spiritual worlds come together in the spirit of the Last Supper. What is holy, what is our experience of holiness today and does it have a place in our lives?

The exhibition set in the Turku Cathedral chapels will feature art with New Testament themes and contemporary takes on the famous wall painting by Leonardo da Vinci. Featured artists will include Andy Warhol, Francine LeClercq and Pauno Pohjolainen.

The exhibition is being curated by Perttu Ollila, and Viivi Laine acts as the exhibition architect. The Turku and Kaarina Parish Union, the Church Council and the Archdiocese of Turku are cooperating in the project.

18 April–31 July: Exhibition, Turku Cathedral, open daily 9am - 8pm. Free entrance.

Dance Theatre ERI will participate in the project with their dance performance Passion, which closely relates to the theme of the exhibition. 

During services and events no access to the exhibition.
