Photography matters:
The Helsinki School
Dear viewer and reader, It is a great honour and a pleasure to present to you the exhibition P���������� ������� : T�� H������� S����� . The Helsinki School of photography has become an international brand recognised for its innovative works of art and excellence in talent development. The Helsinki School is conclusive evidence that photography matters as art as never before and demonstrates that a small country can develop talented, young artists into international calibre artists - by pushing the limits. Year after year they have developed the photographic process as the way of the thinking eye. At the heart of this approach is the creation of a unique learning environment at the University of Art and Design Helsinki, which fosters technical excellence, conceptual clarity, creativity and the self-confidence to make art. This exhibition shows a comprehensive selection of works by artists represented in the Statoil art collection, at different stages in their development. Some are young and at the start of their career, while others are established artists on the international scene. They show very clearly that the Helsinki School approach facilitates genuine individual and personal expression. It is not a school in the traditional sense of the word; it is indeed an approach. Encountering and engaging with art is possible outside of established cultural institutions. Our commitment to art allows us to make a sustainable contribution to the cultural development of the societies in which we operate, as well as build our corporate culture and profile. Art awakens creativity and inspiration - it brings people together and into conversation with each other. Our ambition is to: • Create a courageous, distinctive and coherent art programme • Promote young and and emerging artists whose creative work gives gives society an orientation, orientation, shakes things up, or redefines • Engage our people and encourage encourage them to take advantage advantage of opportunities for for aesthetic reflection and learning • Provide accessibility to the public so that even more people have have immediate access to art • Actively support and participate participate in the exchange of of ideas and culture with the communities communities in which we operate Our art programme comprises five related and dynamic elements: the art collection, exhibitions, learning, communication and the art award. This exhibition would not have been possible without the help and participation of Timothy Persons, director of the professional studies programme and senior lecturer at the University of Art and Design Helsinki. We also wish to thank artists Pertti Kekarainen and Anni Leppälä, who have generously loaned some of their works to the exhibition, and the curators Wenche Falkenhaug (Statoil art programme) and artist Joonas Ahlava. Enjoy the journey. Jens R Jenssen Senior vice president Human resources Leader of the Statoil art programme

The Helsinki School – what is it? What is now known as the “Helsinki School” was in its essence an educational model devised in the mid-1990s by the Department of Professional Studies at the University of Art and Design, Helsinki, Finland. The model provided an opportunity to a selected group of MA students to measure and self-critique their own originality outside of the normal curriculum. The goal from the outset was to take selected students out of the classroom, enabling them to experience how to build, edit, present and curate their work on a professional level. To realise this vision, the University sponsored a series of site-specific exhibitions throughout inner city of Helsinki from 1995 to 1999. These productions afforded the students scenarios for trial and error with the aim of finding solutions to problems they would normally encounter. These site-specific exhibitions eventually led to the creation of gallery TaiK as its primary showcase, and a means of introducing these selected artists to the international community. To achieve this, the university coordinated its academic studies with gallery TaiK’s participation in specified art fairs like Art Forum Berlin or Paris Photo, as a practical way of exposing students to the expectations and demands to be met when forging a successful artistic career. Today gallery TaiK maintains a permanent exhibition space in Berlin, where it also stages Helsinki School exhibitions and produces publications for a worldwide readership. It is impossible to measure the importance of the Helsinki School as an educational model and sustainable movement until it has been tested by time and has realised itself to the full. What can be gauged is the impact it has had on the numerous artists who have been through its system and who now lead professional careers. careers. They serve as a good example of how a university from a small country with limited resources can reach beyond its borders to set new standards in preparing students for the real world and its challenges. Our hope for the future is to sustain and broaden the conceptual dialogue used as the basis of our critiques by inviting lecturers to the university to teach new perspectives. It is our goal to expand this professional workshop workshop series to include the best artists worldwide. This, combined with our touring exhibitions and new publications, will help establish the Helsinki School as a leading educational model that other institutions can learn from, and build upon, in order to attain their own goals.
