Superheroes – From Antiquity to Contemporary
Museum Centre Vapriikki, Tampere
- 29.5.2025–18.1.2026
The Superheroes exhibition, opening at Vapriikki on May 29th, is a fast-paced and colourful journey through the history of heroic stories.
It features ancient gods as well as modern heroes from films and comics.
The exhibition explores the role models for superheroes in ancient myths and legends. Visitors can follow the development of superheroes both chronologically and thematically. The theme knows no age, gender or cultural boundaries. From Hercules to Superman and from the Amazons to Wonder Woman, the heroes may have changed in appearance, but it is always a struggle between good and evil, in which the heroes shine with their transcendent powers. Welcome to a world where you can fly, read minds, create magnetic fields and use magic!
