The Allure of FormThe Allure of Form is an exhibition presenting products and works by twelve designers and artisans from the South Savo region of Finland.
Falling in between design and art, these works consist of interior decoration and utility objects made partly as one-off items and partly in small series.
The exhibits share a playful spirit, rich ideas and the skilful use of recyclable materials.
The showing is an introduction to future marketing events and presentations involving the works of designers and artisans of the region.
The participants of the exhibition and its producer Henri Ulmanen will present their project to the press at 1 p.m. on Thursday 8 November 2007 at Design Forum, Erottajankatu 7.
The exhibition jury selected the participants of The Allure of Form on 8 February 2007, choosing twelve artisans and designers from among 25 candidates.
The jury consisted of internationally and nationally noted professionals in design, including director Birna Kristjansdottir of the Arnesinga Museum of Iceland, producer Laila Alanen of Design Forum Finland and Helena Hyvönen, professor of design at the University of Art and Design Helsinki.
The secretary of the jury was regional artist Henri Ulmanen, producer of the South Savo Arts Council and also the producer of the exhibition.
