Jyväskylä, Finland - 15th July 2012

By: mmm105

Hi!

Today we saw some public art works outside. They are all so unique. :)

This one is called as "Elämän koulu - vastuu, luottamus, luovuus"
In English it might be something like "A school of life - responsibility, trust, creativity"

https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-ZxZZ2oKi3Bw/UAMVJgJa0eI/AAAAAAAAOi0/9VpCxpaX4gg/s640/010.JPG

This one is "Karhu" ("A Bear"). The artist's name is Oskari Raja-aho, and the statue has made in the year 1930.

Look, we all are riding on the bear!  ;)
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-d1AUl0I-rFc/UAMVWnJFyLI/AAAAAAAAOl0/i6seyKJLVlA/s640/038.JPG

This one is "Keinumieli-Tyhjämieli-Häkkimieli" and the artist is Juhani Petäjäniemi, and it has made in 1989.
The name is difficult to translate into English, but it might be something like "a mind of swing - a mind of emptyness - a mind of cage".
https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-VCPI1KS2I64/UAMVQLuIWCI/AAAAAAAAOkQ/soWnjMmTWto/s512/023.JPG

We like this statue. It looks like there's two people flying. :)
The name of the statue is "Elinehto-ajatus-liiketoiminta" and the artist is Heikki Häiväoja, and it has made in 1979.
The translation of the statue's name is "Lifeline-idea-business".
https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-N9uRyxCnvPM/UAMVR38ZxCI/AAAAAAAAOk8/MGs_SeYvBBA/s640/029.JPG

And there's a statue "Kauppias ja apulainen" ("A Merchant and his assistant). The artist is Pauli Koskinen, and it has made in 1959.
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-UgDuTpg8Q94/UAMVWk99SdI/AAAAAAAAOlw/WIDph_4phHc/s512/039.JPG

https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-lF3ekCTUY08/UAMVZ_nLJEI/AAAAAAAAOmw/y84sh4JLR1E/s512/047.JPG

And this one has made the same artist, Pauli Koskinen, in the year 1957. It is art in the outside wall of the building. And it's name is "Reliefi"

After walking a little there started to be dark clouds in the sky, so we turned walking back, and we hoped to arrive 'home' before it's raining...

https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-1kqr-SN0c-w/UAMVdkV3aGI/AAAAAAAAOn8/vHkeJ08oE30/s640/058.JPG 

...But we didn't managed. It started raining so quickly.
And the  rain, it was HARD, we got totally wet within one minute.

https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-sYDxKOxQmuk/UAMVg28aWqI/AAAAAAAAOos/IUJD5xSd_ew/s640/070.JPG

We run back 'home', and inside it was time to get dry again, aww... :)

What an adventure!!!

Love,
