Paradise – Collection Kakkonen & Marianne Huotari, Ninni Luhtasaari, Pekka Paikkari ja Armi Teva is on display in Kuopio Art Museum 7 June – 1 September 2024. At the heart of this exhibition presenting Finnish ceramic art are the variety of shapes, abundance of colors, sensitivity, and humour. In Paradise, the old masters of ceramic art from Juselius to Kaipiainen meet the most intriguing artists of the contemporary ceramic art scene.

Pekka Paikkari’s works combine massiveness and sensitivity. Collection Kakkonen has lent the works of Birger Kaipiainen, Elin Juselius, Tyra Lundgren, Michael Schilkin and Taisto Kaasinen to the exhibition.
