Exhibition #41 – The House of Play and Rain

24.2.2017 – 19.3.2017

The House of Play and Rain is the first in a series of three exhibitions, as part of Hanna-Kaisa Korolainen’s doctoral studies at Aalto university. The exhibition is inspired by various visual artists, from Raoul Dufy to Niki de Saint Phalle. Rugs, woven jacquards and printed fabrics create a home-like setting, where influences from the imaginary Paris of 1920’s are combined with the artist’s childhood scenery of 1970s Finland. Presenting the sketches, materials and tools behind the artwork reveals the mystery behind the artistic process.

Exhibition #101 – Ilari Hautamäki & Santtu Mustonen / Once in a Hyper Moon

25.1.–22.2.2025
This unexpected exhibition presents a collection of works that explore three-dimensional textures, color combinations, and various techniques used to create texture-filled surfaces. The materials used by the artists, such as glass and paper, serve as the foundation for the pieces. The artworks blend the organic and industrial, as well as the controlled and spontaneous, in ways that reflect each artist’s unique approach.

Exhibition #100 – Niidome & Lautenbacher / Hiver – Fuyu

7.12.2024 – 18.1.2025
In the wintertime exhibition, wood and ceramics complement each other. The pitch black and glossy white wooden surfaces and the tones of red clay brick alongside porcelain are windows to other worlds – they bring play, warmth and comfort to the middle of this season.

Exhibition #99 – Sasha Huber & Petri Saarikko / Like Night and Day

18.10.–16.11.2024
In this exhibition two artists, Sasha Huber and Petri Saarikko, come together to explore themes of otherness and connection.
