In Arctic Hysteria: New Art from Finland, the magical, the surreal, and the completely outlandish reign supreme. Tea Mäkipää's 60-foot collage landscape serves as the backdrop for Pekka Jylhä's stuffed hare perched on the edge of an eight-foot-wide, water-filled stainless-steel dish. Meanwhile, the Pink Twins' four-wall video installation immerses viewers in a phantasmagoria of sounds and images. To coincide with the exhibit, PS1 Warm Up presents two Finnish bands in August, while the MoMA screens historical and contemporary video works by Finnish artists in September.
