- Is That All? [ - 5.9.] HALL, WING, PROJECT ROOM The extensive joint exhibition by Veli Granö and Tuovi Hippeläinen explores worldviews and life stories through ideas, images, narrations and memories. The exhibition takes up the theme of travel as metaphor of life. The miniature worlds created by the artists offer viewpoints into collective and individual experiences and to different and alternative ways to perceive reality. The exhibition is accompanied by a self-portrait clay workshop at the museum's sculpture yard. The self-prtraits produced in the workshop will later be put on display in the museum’s lobby as part of the exhibition. The exhibition is produced by Pori Art Museum and is part of the Visual Community Network –project. After Pori the exhibition will travel to project museums BildMuseet in Umeå, Sweden and BALTIC, Gateshead, England during 2004-2005. |

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS? |
FROM CUBISM TO CONCRETISM [1.12. - January 2005] WING Early Norwegian avant-garde. In the artist’s work, the avant-garde art of the early 20th century denoted the replacement of the line by the analysis of the meaning of the surface and the plane. In the last century, Norwegian nonfigurative art had two heydays. In the 1920s and 1930s Norwegian artists got to know Cubism and Purism in Paris. In the 1950s and 1960s Norwegian art rose from the ruins of World War II. Ragnhild Kaarbø (1888-1949), Ragnhild Keyser (1889-1943) and Charlotte Wankel (1888-1969) can be regarded as the first Norwegian cubists, pioneers of nonfigurative art. The post-war geometric school of art is represented by Gunnar S. Gundersen (1921-1983) and Jakob Weidemann (1923-2001). |
TOM OSMONEN [1.12. - January 2005] PROJECT ROOM In Tom Osmonen’s (born 1962) wallpaper collages evil disguises itself in the form of beauty. The wallpaper in the works represents phrases used to justify and euphemise such things as political evil. At the same time, the wallpaper reminds us of the evil within, inside the four walls of home, the genetically built-in component in every one of us. |
