Dezeen has teamed up with Amos Rex and JKMM Architects on a live talk to mark the launch of a new book about the Helsinki museum. Watch here from 5:00pm London time.
Titled Amos Rex Art Museum – JKMM Architects, the publication explores the design of the museum s building, a 1930s structure refurbished by Finnish studio JKMM Architectst that includes subterranean galleries with domes that punctuate the plaza above.
The book, published by Arvinus + Orfeus, also asks questions about the type of landmarks that galleries should be in the 21st century, how these institutions might catalyse vibrant urban cultures and who they are really for.
