LANDSCAPES – THE MASTERS OF A FINNISH SCHOOL
APRIL 7th to JUNE 10th 2018

“The exhibition in the Logis abbatial brings together a collection on the theme of landscape, but which is marked by different subtexts: images of northern lands with an underlying poetic vision mixed with an approach sometimes touching on abstraction, as black & white is to colour.

All four photographers are of the same generation, born
in the early 1950s (except the slightly younger Jyrki Parantainen). They have, for the most part, taught at Aalto University in Helsinki. Their teaching has helped shape the young talent that the Finnish Taik Persons Gallery brought together and styled “the Helsinki School”.”
