Distractions, reflections

David Ing, at large … Sometimes, my mind wanders

2007/11/02 Contemporary art at Kiasma, Helsinki 1

Posted on November 02, 2007 by daviding

I’m a fan of contemporary art, and the Kiasma is one of my favourite art museums in the world. On Friday nights, admission to Kiasma is free. Karlos and I had plans to meet for dinner, so I suggested that we take a quick browse of the exhibits. While there’s a video documentary playing in the stagelight constructed by Tuomas Laitinen, the observer becomes a part of the exhibit titled Lighthouse Vol. 1.

I liked, from Kiasma’s permanent collection, Drought Circle by Richard Long.
