  • A Show of Emotion
    Issue No. 3/2018 A Show of Emotion Interview by Gill Crabbe, FNG Research As the Sinebrychoff Art Museum prepares to stage an exhibition on painting and the theatre, Gill Crabbe meets the show’s curator Laura Gutman, to discuss the research she carried out in order to bring this topic to life Meeting the independent curator Laura Gutman is like meeting a detective. As curator of several shows in Finland, where she moved from Paris 17 years ago, including the recent acclaimed ‘Air de Paris’ exhibition at Helsinki Art Museum (HAM), she has used her research skills and background studying art history under Guy Cogeval at the Ecole du Louvre in Paris in the 1990s to impressive effect in Finland. Not only has she been making intriguing connections between Finnish artists and their European counterparts, but also deepening understanding of European artworks in Finnish collections. It is a busy year for Gutman as she is now in the final stages of preparing a show on theatre and painting from the 17th to early 20th centuries titled ‘Moved to Tears: Staging Emotions’ at the Sinebrychoff Art Museum in Helsinki. The museum is an appropriate setting for such a subject as it is the house of the collector Paul Sinebrychoff, whose wife Fanny Grahn was herself an actress, and their rooms on the first floor are laid out almost as a series of theatrical sets, each reflecting a period from his collection. The theme of the Sinebrychoff exhibition which is held in the galleries on the ground floor, is also a subject close to Gutman’s heart, since at the Ecole du Louvre she studied the theoretical and philosophical background to painting and theatre ‘from David to Degas’.

  • Project Plan Project #12 Case Korkeasaari
    Aalto University ELEC-E8002 & ELEC-E8003 Project work course Year 2017 Project plan Project #12 Case Korkeasaari Date: 26.1.2017 Janne Lappi Mikko Poranen Laura Syvänne Ville Kärnä Miro Rosenström Information page Students Janne Lappi Mikko Poranen Laura Syvänne Ville Kärnä Miro Rosenström Project manager Janne Lappi Official Instructor Jaakko Ketomäki Other advisors Jari Viinanen Petteri Huuska Marjo Priha Starting date 5.1.2017 Approval The Instructor has accepted the final version of this document Date: 25.1.2017 1. Background City of Helsinki has a mission to be carbon neutral in 2050. There’s a half a million visitors in Korkeasaari Zoo every year. Hence Korkeasaari has a lot of visibility and a great chance to be the trailblazer and advisor when Helsinki is reaching towards carbon neutrality. The Zoo would set an example and educate visitors and corporations to act in an environmentally friendly manner. Carbon neutral Korkeasaari will improve the whole image of Helsinki and Finland. Environmental friendliness will again make the Zoo more fascinating and stimulating, which has a positive impact on visitor satisfaction. With smart actions it is possible to decrease energy consumption and thereby decrease costs of energy in Korkeasaari. Previous energy review for Korkeasaari was done in 1998. In 2016 Korkeasaari and the city of Helsinki began planning new energy vision for the zoo. New strategy is to transform Korkeasaari carbon neutral by 2025. Buildings and structures of the zoo are old and thereby neither in good condition nor energy efficient. Korkeasaari forms also a significant part of the electricity consumption of Helsinki.
