  • Triangular-Shaped Landforms Reveal Subglacial Drainage Routes in SW 2 Finland
    1 1 Triangular-shaped Landforms Reveal Subglacial Drainage Routes in SW 2 Finland 3 Mäkinen, J.a, *, Kajuutti, K.a, Palmu, J.-P.b, Ojala, A.b and Ahokangas, E.a 4 a Department of Geography and geology, University of Turku FI-20014 Turku, Finland. 5 b Geological Survey of Finland, P.O. Box 96 (Betonimiehenkuja 4) FI-02151 Espoo, Finland. 6 * corresponding author ([email protected]). 7 8 ABSTRACT 9 The aim of this study is to present the first evidence of triangular-shaped till landforms and related erosional 10 features indicative of subglacial drainage within the ice stream bed of the Scandinavian ice sheet in Finland. 11 Previously unidentified grouped patterns of Quaternary deposits with triangular landforms can be recognized from 12 LiDAR-based DEMs. The triangular landforms occur as segments within geomorphologically distinguishable 13 routes that are associated with eskers. The morphological and sedimentological characteristics as well as the 14 distribution of the triangular landforms are interpreted to involve the creep of saturated deforming till, flow and 15 pressure fluctuations of subglacial meltwater associated with meltwater erosion. There are no existing models for 16 the formation of this kind of large-scale drainage systems, but we claim that they represent an efficient drainage 17 system for subglacial meltwater transfer under high pressure conditions. Our hypothesis is that the routed, large- 18 scale subglacial drainage systems described herein form a continuum between channelized (eskers) and more 19 widely spread small-scale distributed subglacial drainage. Moreover, the transition from the conduit dominated 20 drainage to triangular-shaped subglacial landforms takes place about 50-60 km from the ice margin.

  • Artek – a Bridge to the International Art World
    Issue No. 3/2017 Artek – a Bridge to the International Art World Susanna Pettersson, PhD, Museum Director, Finnish National Gallery, Ateneum Art Museum Also published in Sointu Fritze (ed.), Alvar Aalto – Art and the Modern Form. Ateneum Publications Vol. 93. Helsinki: Finnish National Gallery / Ateneum Art Museum, 2017, 48–69. Transl. Wif Stenger The exhibitions organised by the Artek gallery enjoy an almost iconic status in the field of Finnish art. These exhibitions were bold and ambitious. The idea behind them was to bring together modern art, industry, interior design and ‘propaganda’, by which was meant publishing activity. The exhibitions also left a lasting mark on Finnish art and on the Ateneum art collection. ‘Europe – its symbol could be […] an airplane above a cathedral. America – its symbol is an airplane above a skyscraper. In the latter picture, there is perfect harmony. In the first there is not. The former represents the present day. The latter, the future.’ 1 It was with these words that the writer Olavi Paavolainen, in his book Nykyaikaa etsimässä (In Search of Modern Time), published in 1929, expressed his generation’s desire to see the world through new eyes. Finnish artists were accustomed to finding inspiration broadly in European countries, primarily in France, Germany and Italy. Paavolainen had, in his dreams, travelled further afield, as far as New York and Chicago. Paavolainen’s book tackled three themes: the modern European lifestyle, new trends in art and the new image of humanity. Paavolainen wrote with great passion on behalf of modernity and against conservatism. He emphasised that in ‘developing a modern view of life’ one should pay attention to all the arts, meaning literature, the visual arts, theatre and music.

  • ARTEK – Furnishing a Nation
    Alvar Aalto Researchers’ Network Seminar – Why Aalto? 9-10 June 2017, Jyväskylä, Finland ARTEK – Furnishing a nation Laura Berger Doctoral candidate Department of Architecture Aalto University, Finland address: Töölönkatu 50 D 82 00250 Helsinki tel: +358 44 065 33 59 email: [email protected] Laura Berger Doctoral candidate Department of Architecture Aalto University, Finland ARTEK - Furnishing a nation ‘As a child, I was afraid of this chair. The chair lived upstairs my grandparents house. It was unsteady. It was difficult to climb to sit on it, and impossible to stand on. Adults forbade standing on the chair, and after an attempt even a four-year-old realised the stool was not meant for this purpose. Quite a few others have not been afraid of this chair, because Alvar Aalto ‘stool number 60’ has been sold in millions since it was first designed in 1933..’1 This is a description by a journalist in a Finnish interior magazine ‘Deko’, which leads me to the topic of this paper. This paper begins with two notions: First, it is suggested that an essential part of Alvar Aalto’s fame is rooted in furniture designs and the distribution of these via the Artek company, established in 1935. Second, the hypothesis is that so many Finns, far beyond architecture and design enthusiasts recognise Aalto’s name still today because the Artek furniture remains to be part of many peoples’ mundane, ’everyday life’. The motivation for focusing on Artek furnishings in buildings not by Aalto is on one hand to not tease apart Artek’s independent role, but on the other hand, because living in Finland, I have found myself only too often awakening to the realisation of being surrounded by Artek furniture in spaces as kindergartens, hospitals, governmental offices, and libraries.
