Doctor of medicine and surgery Lars Göran Johnsson (b. 1930) fell in love with art as a child, and has been collecting art for decades. He has acquired hundreds of works, resulting in one of Finland’s most significant private collections. In 2016, Johnsson donated his collection of about 500 artworks to Turku Art Museum. The collection mainly consists of Finnish contemporary art but also includes some older works. He also acquired some international art during the years he spent abroad in the United States and France. What makes the collection so exceptional is that it continues to grow, now comprising over 700 works.
