Lives in Helsinki, born 1967, in Lapua, Finland. I’m an artist, director, writer and researcher. A Doctor of Fine Arts (Academy of Fine Arts, University of the Arts Helsinki 2005). Since 1990 I have been an independent, freelancing artist, except for the years 2008–2013, when I was Professor of Fine Arts in Aalto University. I'm also the chairman of The Artists' Association of Finland. I work in the fields of art, philosophy and politics by whatever means necessary. The results are usually some kind of visual art, literature, theater, film or theory. For me art is the best way to respond to the questions: "How should we live? Why should we keep on living? What is good life?" Art is the most flexible, versatile and holistic form of philosophy and politics. I’ve had 58 solo exhibitions, participated in over 200 group shows, written nine books and written & directed numerous theatre plays, films and operas. #1 / 42# Teemu Mäki, CV, www.teemumaki.com Table of contents My Books 3 Theatre Works (as director / writer) 3 Other functions in performing arts$4!

    LUCI Annual General Meeting Helsinki Finland 23rd to 27th September 2015 Programme LUCI Annual General Meeting rd th Helsinki Finland 23 to 27 September 2015 am pleased and delighted to welcome the LUCI Annual General I Meeting to Helsinki. You have chosen the optimal time to visit our city. Helsinki is expanding faster than ever before with the construction of completely new districts. For example, Kruunuvuorenranta, a residential community under development at the site of a former oil terminal, will be profiled as a neighbourhood of light. Outdoor lighting will be an important part of this process as the City of Helsinki aims to build sustainable, safe and pleasant EDITORIALS neighbourhoods, where people can enjoy both work and leisure. Our northern location makes the city ideal for innovative lighting schemes, following the long winter period. In new outdoor lighting projects, we highlight the importance of sustainability and energy efficiency. Consequently, the total energy consumption of outdoor lighting in Helsinki has decreased by 25% since 1997, while the number of lighting points has increased by 19%. I look forward to sharing experiences and best practices in this extremely interesting field and to welcoming you in Helsinki. Jussi Pajunen Mayor of Helsinki t’s a great pleasure to gather in Helsinki for the 2015 edition of Iour Annual General Meeting! Following the success of last year’s AGM in Dubrovnik (Croatia), the LUCI network brings together cities and professionals from all over the world to share ideas, experiences, and broaden their perspectives in the ever evolving field of lighting. With a focus on northern lights, LUCI members will have the exceptional opportunity to discover the many facets of outdoor lighting in Helsinki, a global and inspiring policy including the implementation of new lighting technologies based on the most recent research results, architectural lighting, light and art and festive lighting projects.
