From Finnish classics to leading figures in international contemporary art, I Will Look Into The Earth presents highlights from the private Miettinen Collection.
Featuring over 100 works by more than 50 artists, the exhibition delves into the core themes of the collection. Themes of landscape, nature, and intimacy are present in both historical paintings and contemporary artworks. The show is curated by Linda Peitz and Florian Peters-Messer.
The Miettinen Collection currently comprises around 1,500 works. Collector Timo Miettinen continues to expand the collection with bold intuition and broad curiosity, championing contemporary artists working in Germany as well as emerging Finnish and international talents.
