The Annual Exhibition 2021 is the 97th of its kind, and the call for applications was open to all artists and artist collectives from Southwest Finland. For many budding artists, the Annual Exhibition of Turku Artists\u2019 Association\u00a0is the first chance to exhibit their pieces. It also offers the public a snapshot of the current activities in contemporary art.<\/p>\n<p>The essence of the Annual Exhibition is always shaped by its curator. This year, the exhibition was juried by visual artist and fine arts teacher <strong>Antero Paavola<\/strong> who selected pieces from 90 artists after reviewing a staggering 165 applications. The exhibition is a diverse selection of pieces featuring a large range of techniques and themes from traditional painting to installations, assemblages and audio pieces integrated with their environment.<\/p>\n<p>Curator Antero Paavola describes the selection process as challenging: \u201cI would have liked to include pieces from every single artist. However, there are spatial limitations to consider.\u201d In fact, the Annual Exhibition will take up all the three galleries at Kunsthalle Turku from floor to ceiling, giving room for the diversity of techniques. Despite the enormous selection process, the curator is satisfied with the exhibition.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve put together a fine exhibition. Special thanks go to the association\u2019s artists and the active members who took part in the arrangements,\u201d says Paavola.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>The artists in the exhibition:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Vesa Aaltonen<br \/>\nAnna Aho<br \/>\nHenna Aho<br \/>\nSimo Alitalo ja Tuike Alitalo<br \/>\nEeva-Liisa Anttila<br \/>\nErno Beuker<br \/>\nAnnika Dahlsten<br \/>\nSami Funke<br \/>\nReeta Giger<br \/>\nSaija Hairo<br \/>\nAnu Halmesmaa<br \/>\nMarika Halonen<br \/>\nSelma Haro<br \/>\nToni Hautam\u00e4ki<br \/>\nMariel Helovirta<br \/>\nSanna Horvath<br \/>\nSuvi Hukka<br \/>\nTanja Huntus<br \/>\nElina Ha\u0308ma\u0308la\u0308inen<br \/>\nSara Ilveskorpi<br \/>\nAki Jalava<br \/>\nSami Jalonen<br \/>\nHeli Jauhiainen<br \/>\nJohanna Juupaluoma<br \/>\nPetra Kallio<br \/>\nKristiina Karsten<br \/>\nSalla Kemppi<br \/>\nSirkku Ketola<br \/>\nVenla Kivel\u00e4<br \/>\nAnnika Kivi<br \/>\nAapo Kotilainen<br \/>\nRiikka Kupsala<br \/>\nElli Laajavuori<br \/>\nElise Lehikoinen<br \/>\nTeija Lehto<br \/>\nOona Leinovirtanen<br \/>\nLotta Leka<br \/>\nAppe Lepp\u00e4nen<br \/>\nJussi Lipasti<br \/>\nJohannes Luoma<br \/>\nTiina Majabacka<br \/>\nNea Mattila<br \/>\nMari Metsa\u0308ma\u0308ki<br \/>\nJone Mutka<br \/>\nJan Helge Muurinen<br \/>\nPirkko M\u00e4kel\u00e4-Haapalinna<br \/>\nMaija M\u00e4ki ja Jaana Saarikoski<br \/>\nErkki Nampaja\u0308rvi<br \/>\nJohanna Naukkarinen<br \/>\nEero Nives<br \/>\nMarjaana Nukarinen<br \/>\nReija Palo-oja<br \/>\nMervi Patala<br \/>\nHannele Peltorinne<br \/>\nKalle Pitka\u0308nen<br \/>\nMinna Poikonen<br \/>\nJanne Punkari<br \/>\nInari Raaterova<br \/>\nJarkko Rantanen<br \/>\nEetu Ronkainen<br \/>\nMargarita Rossell\u00f3 Ram\u00f3n<br \/>\nIiris Elena Rusi<br \/>\nVille Ruuska<br \/>\nJani R\u00e4tty\u00e4<br \/>\nMarianne Saarenvirta<br \/>\nElisa Sakko<br \/>\nJose Salminen<br \/>\nTaru Salonen<br \/>\nSilja Selonen<br \/>\nPirkko Siivonen-Takku<br \/>\nSalla Sillgren<br \/>\nTomi Slotte Dufva<br \/>\nRaisa Marja Suksi<br \/>\nJohn Sundberg<br \/>\nPaula Suominen<br \/>\nJarkko Suvela<br \/>\nSini Talonen<br \/>\nTrivial Zero (Sami Pikkarainen ja Jenny Mild)<br \/>\nAlexandra Trufanova<br \/>\nHenri Tuominen<br \/>\nVertti Turunen<br \/>\nArja Valkonen-Goldblatt<br \/>\nJaana Valtari<br \/>\nHeini Vanhanen<br \/>\nAndrea Vannucchi<br \/>\nFanny Varjo<br \/>\nJenni Vesanen<br \/>\nJirko Viljanen<br \/>\nSusanna Vuorio<br \/>\nMerja Ylitalo<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 97th Annual Exhibition of Turku Artists\u2019 Association will be presented at Kunsthalle Turku from 12 November to 19 December 2021.
