MODERN (GN)ART IN HELSINKI, FINLAND





Helsinki's modern art museum is quite amazing theres Nazi Tweeties, Alf made to look like Hitler and a slew of other comedic social commentary pieces. What really won my heart over though, was their history of skatebording exhibit mostly from a Finnish perspective. There were boards old and new, along with videos from several generations including what appeared to be a local Helsinki homie video. But the icing on the cake was the mini ramp outside the museum which was free to skate whenever you'd like, and also there were some good ledge lines right in front of the museum's entrance.

More on Helsinki to come. -Bob
