Construction Site for a Colorful Ghost

The Construction Site for a Colorful Ghost (Peter Larsson & Ossian Eckerman, SWE, 2020), a new mural for the façade of Runeberginkatu 50, is a multimedia work, a painting that looks like a photograph of a sculpture.

It has multiple layers and multiple levels. Even though it is abstract, it is recognizable as a gesture and makes interesting use of colour. The work has a tremendous playfulness and will suit all sorts of people. It gives the site greater depth and space.

Halosenniemi

Halosenniemi is the studio home of the painter Pekka Halonen (1865-1933), built in National Romantic style and situated on lake Tuusula, approx. 30 km from Helsinki.

Halonen's studio was opened to the public in the 1950s. Today the museum specialises in presenting material related to Halonen's art, his lifetime achievements and the famous artists' colony of Tuusula to which he and his friends belonged. Every year the museum hosts 3-4 theme exhibitions showcasing Halonen's art side by side with the work of his contemporaries and later generations of artists up to the present day.
