The Polish icon of sculpture, Magdalena Abakanowicz, will make her large-scale debut in Finland as her organic textile sculptures fill HAM’s grand arched halls in all their height and breadth. Renowned as a pioneer in creating fibre-based sculptures and installations, Abakanowicz’s impressive “Abakans” will dominate the exhibition space with a striking presence.
