Picks from Young Artists 2009 show
Yesterday was the last day of the Young Artists 2009 (Nuoret 2009) exhibition in Helsinki. I’m glad I went to visit it as I really enjoyed many of the works. It included a wast selection of 70 works from 62 artists, all under 35. The Finnish Maecenas Guild Award – a prize of 6,000 euro was granted to Ari Pelkonen. The first show of its kind was held in 1939, 70 years ago. These were few of my favorite works (below) and you can read more about it from Taidehalli.
