näyttelyluettelo

Näyttelyluettelo, often translated as exhibition catalogue or exhibition list, is a document that provides a comprehensive overview of the works included in an art exhibition. Typically, a näyttelyluettelo contains essential information for each exhibited item, such as the artist's name, the title of the work, the year of creation, the medium used, and the dimensions. It may also include a brief description or provenance of the artwork.

These catalogues serve multiple purposes. For visitors, they act as a guide to navigate the exhibition, understand the context of the works, and identify specific pieces. For scholars and art historians, a näyttelyluettelo is an invaluable resource for research, documenting exhibitions, and tracing the history of artworks and artists. Museums and galleries often publish these catalogues in both print and digital formats.

The content of a näyttelyluettelo can vary in depth. Some are simple lists, while others are more elaborate publications featuring essays by curators or art critics, artist statements, and high-quality reproductions of the artworks. The creation of a näyttelyluettelo is an integral part of exhibition planning and serves as a lasting record of the displayed collection. It contributes to the dissemination of knowledge about art and culture.
